[QUOTE="william-1, post: 1040057, member: 193781"] My interest started a bit earlier with analogue TV, I mounted a 8 Element VHF band II on a North to South axis on a chimney stack & in the summer I was able to receive about 12 ITV regions on my KB 20" B&W TV from Grampian in the Scotland to Southern & Westward TV this was on the Norfolk coast in a village called Kelling, This TV also had UHF so I was able to watched BBC2 Spike Milligan show Q5, When my grandfather died in 1969 I moved to Vange in Essex to stay with my gran & got a job maintaining machines that made electrical resistors, In the evenings I was able to watch the 1st test transmissions of ITV London in UHF with Double your money with H Green, Back to today I have now moved into Linux satellite with the SX88 HD & the A4K UHD receivers these are far more user friendly than my earlier Linux receivers, I still like the TM6902HD & TM5302HD for finding out was is out there but I am gradually moving over to the Octagon SX88 & Amiko A4K there is still no 4:2:2 receiver out there & unlikely to be so my next step will be a [SIZE=4]TBS6903 Professional DVB-S2 Dual Tuner PCIe Card in my spare PC with a [/SIZE]120cm Gibertini as most of the feed transmissions are borderline now with the old 100cm.
