Thought that I had better say hello - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Hi Chaps, noticed a number of familiar names. I'm just beginning to get over the effects of a stroke so apologies if my remarks and spelling get a bit befuddled at times. Must remember to use the spell check facility on this board.
My records and information from people & relatives indicate that I have been in the hobby for a number of years and have had some experience of satellites during most of my working life. But the memory is not back up to stretch/strength yet.
Anyhow, I will try to contribute as much as possible as and when I can.
In addition to the equipment that I have operating at the moment, as per my signature, there are a few extra receivers and motors and lnb's in the cupboard.
I am thinking of getting a MTI Blueline lnb as I have read some good reports about them in the last few days.
Best wishes to you all for the festive season and new year.

I see you have a very impressive sight of the satellite arc, so be prepared for us to be asking you some questions

Welcome from Scotland where we have about 8 months' less summer than you do in Suffolk - but it's only another month until the shortest day and then it's UPHILL all the way. Best Wishes on a speedy recovery!
