[QUOTE="absoluteb, post: 11564, member: 175196"] I am also looking at a 60cm mesh dish with a “universal ae14 single” LNB. Just to check that I understand, "single" means that the LNB can only be connected to one cable, but receives both polarizations. (What does the ae14 mean?) On that note, in the future, would it be possible to ‘split’ the signal via a booster to two receivers? (In a similar way that you can do it with a signal from a standard aerial?) The satellite will be mounting quite far from the receiver (about 30m) will I need a very good coaxial cable and some kind of booster? Which of the following receivers is the best: Toshiba TS540, Amstrad SRD700, Amstrad SRX-200, Ferguson SRD4, Pace MSS 301? General curiosity: is a different type of LNB required to receive a digital signal (don’t worry I’m not going there – I understand it is far more difficult to set up a digital system). Sorry – So many questions!! [/QUOTE]
