Hi gang, some of you will know me from other forums. Im analoguesat and I hail from the deepest depths of the rural Scottish Borders 30 miles south of Edinburgh. I know sod all about cable tv as the nearest service is 30 miles from here, but a hellof a lot about satellites and satellite tv in general.

I see some familiar names on here so hi to everyone that knows me from on the other forums (fora forii ??) To the others who dont know me, Im sure we will be friends.

Despite my Scottish location Im a genial Midlander who hails from the Walsall / Wolverhampton area and I have the thickest Brummie accent for 20 miles around

Oh I should mention that I have more satellite dishes than sense (5 operational 2 in the hedge awaiting use) and numerous satellite receivers including my beloved Dreambox 7020 and Echostar IP3000VA.

I also run 2 reasonably well known satellite websites some of you will knowalthough I wont post the addresses until I read the rules about links!

Analoguesat, Welcome to Techwatch.. do you have any pics of your satellite dishes?

Analoguesat · 23-10-07, 12:12 AM

Oh yes

Once Ive found my way around the site I'll post some more details of my dishes, equipment etc. Complete with pics.

Hi Analoguesat,
FIVE dishes, you'll be telling us, you used to keep them on old van tyres next.
