Hi,
New to the forum, and first post. I have a bush Freesat HD box connected to an very old sky dish that came with the house. When I first installed the box I could only get channels in one polarisation, so I replaced the LNB with a QUAD, only to find that the fitting on the arm different to that on the LNB. A few ice-lolly sticks and some sellotape later(I'm not joking!), I plugged the newly fitted cable in, and ........ It worked! Twelve months later I still have 70% signal strength. I am currently looking to sort this out before it falls down.
I would really like to get my computer set up so I can watch the football this summer. I'm not arrogant enough to think I could set up an all singing all dancing system. But would like to watch the FTA Football in HD. Which basic card do you recommend that will do HD? The other problem I have is that my PC is an ACER, and the box is 1/3 smaller than a normal box. Don't think this will cause a problem internally, but will I have to attack the fitting with a hacksaw? I've still got some ice-lolly sticks left!
Thanks in advance,
Kevin.
