Yes they are very high gain and good quality.
You will need to buy a polar mount and 18" jack for it if you want to motorise it.

I didn't know they did a 1.5m Gibertini!? 8)

That probably performs nearly as well as the Andrews 1.8m based on the Gibertini 1.25m. Something new for me to lust after :spite:

The Invacom 0.3dB LNB is what I'd go for on that dish too.

A jack is definitely the way to go if you want it motorised, but it's going to be an expensive polar mount, I bet

You don't need a dish that large for most satellites, so it's a bit of a waste unless you're searching out something else exotic. I'd have it fixed, and add a smaller motorised dish.

The Dreambox is the ultimate receiver for someone who wants to view those packages and others. Not the cheapest, but the best.

Hi london-guy,

Well I tried 7 west last night and couldn't clear anything so I think going for a large dish just to get 7 west would be a waste.

The mention of the dreambox made my ears pop up. There is so much out there in addition to 7 west channels and I am sure you would find plenty to your liking.

With a dreambox, a router connecting the dreambox to a pc and to the internet, and a 900 mm motorised dish you would find lots to watch from all over Europe and the Middle East.

There is lots of on-line help available for the dreambox if you get stuck.

Wow, that's excellent. Don't think I'd buy from Hisat though >

Unfortunately they seem to be the importer, all gibbi dishes bought in the UK seem to have one of their stickers on.

Still, lovely setup for not very much cash.

i think jack will be good as well B GunaStick the 18 inch looks good for the 1.50 its £ 40 and the dish is £ 182 The Polar Mount is £ 34 but i think at least you get a good signal in Nilesat and also some satellites like Amos and Thor

Yes, I'm sure it will do a good job with most satellites. You just have to tackle the practicalities of installing it and/or getting the required permissions. I theory you will need planning permission for a dish that large.

Don't forget though, that it won't get all of the Nilesat channels.
