[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 1040014, member: 323322"] Formerly, I was part of the Design Team for a Marine Satellite Comms. system, way back in the mid 1970s, and I found many of the associated concepts fascinating: Gyro-stabilisation, Tracking, ultra-low noise (for that time) semiconductors allowing the infinitesimal signal strengths to be utilised ... etc. etc. Latterly, Hobson's Choice having moved to a house with no DTT coverage, marginal (ie snowy!) Analogue TV and a true Yorkshire disinclination to go the "Sky" route. Instead, bought a Fortec Star Rx for 28E FTA, realised there was other stuff out there, so installed an old "Analogue" dish, found in a neighbour's garage, with a 13/19E LNB and soon after installed an 80cm Motorised.
