What's Your satellite set up??

[catseye]

Can members post here what equipment they are using, box, dish type & size , lnb type & location roughly in Europe (ie North Yorks)

& what sats & channels they can receive (including scrambled channels)

It would be good to hear from members on here regarding satellite reception etc

[grtmoby]

This might be good as a guide as well cats

VU+ DUO+ EMP Centauri 9/1 + Wavefrontier T-90 with 7 sats. That is all

How do you find the Wavefrontier dish? Signal strength/quality ok? Have you compared it to a dish on a motor?

[OldSkulRide]

Everything ok (from 1W to 28.2, i am from Slovenia), just 16E is a bit weaker than on my second dish (on other house) triax 88cm but that is understandable. 16E is weak satellite and dish needs to be alligned 100%. T-90 is hard to set up 100% properly.
