Hey guys, newbie hear just after a bit of advice.

I've managed to persuade my mother to buy me a sat system for xmas, and would like a little advice on what to go for.

The $200 (sorry poundsign not working) will include a motorised dish too.

I'm mainly after one where you can see a lot of men in shorts and t-shirt running up and down a field with a round thing, if you know what i mean.

I've seen a 6800hd ex-demo for that price with an 80cm motorised dish, but i asked someone about them and he says that i wouldnt be able to get what im after with that receiver and to go for a dreambox or a tm800.

I'm not too bothered about it being hd, but any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Worlass

right I assume that you want the Porn channels... However you want it for a cheap price but @ the same time be able to get other channels like sports and so on as well.

DM box would be my recommded choice. However if you want it to do anything then u need to google it.

Otherwise u would need to buy a card and subscribe.

Porn channels

He wants the footie.

£200 is not enough, you cant even buy a Tring sub for that amount.

You should be able to get a dish, motor etc and a cheap and nasty dm500 clone though.

What sort of reciever do you recommend Robbo, and how much would i be looking at

Robbo · 11-11-10, 07:57 PM

I can't recommended anything personally as I only watch FTA stuff, so the TM6800 does me fine.
