[QUOTE="silvernet, post: 29904, member: 176484"] Hi Rob, I may be able to help you. First of all I have no idea of reception in Tenerife, however I use a Kaon 570 with 2 CI's built in. this was purchased from Ciberland in Gandia, near to my second home.. The good news is, they have just employed a new young lady member of staff named Flavia who speaks perfect English, give her a call. The Kaon works perfectly on Hotbird 13 degrees and Astra 19 degrees, and Hispasat at 30 degrees. I use mine with a Matrix Reloaded or Joker Cam, all purchased from Ciberland. 225 Euros for box and Cam plus IVA and delivery. I would avoid the Extreme Hornet. As far as Channel 5 is concerned, yes they altered frequencies last week to a weaker one in Spain, however it is only marginally weaker, nothing like as weak as BBC ITV and 4, you may well get 5 back with a slightly bigger dish and / or a better LNB. I still get 5 all day and night on a 90 cm dish near Gandia. A Pace 2200 is not the best box to have in Spain ( or anywhere else ) a Panasonic 30 or Pace 2600 will probably bring 5 back. Finally, beware of so called Brit Sat Installers in Spain, there are loads of cowboy pretenders out there. You are probably better off dealing with a Spanish one. Hope this helps, if you need any more specific info, feel free to PM me. silvernet [/QUOTE]
