Or indeed a meter.
Is this possible, easy, foolhardy, plain daft?
I am looking to install my own minidish and LNB and to purchase a second hand Sky box to use without any viewing card to get the Free to air channels (Similar though slightly different list to the freeview offering).
I decided to do this based on the advice here.....
But now i've started having a look around for more info on how to do it (having ordered the box), most of the responces to previous posts seem to say don't attempt it, or at least not without a meter.
So, now for the questions.
Has anyone here done this themselves? How did you get on, any tips?
Given that I can look up the correct angle form my place near the south coast to the ssatellite, how does this relate to the angle I point the (parabolic and I hope offset) dish to and how do I set the dish - ie do you sight along the LNB arm? or what?
Can anyone recommend any particular makes or models of digibox?.
Are they all as easy to use as the previously mentioned PACE for this setup excercise? Or are some better than others?
I am tending toward Panasonic or Pace at the moment, but would welcome suggestions.
