Just installed my new contral heating system.
![]() Mounted the condensing combi boiler, fitted 7 room radiators and 2 towel radiators and plumbed them all in. Got the gas line connected and filled the system up. Switched it on and bingo - heat and hot water. ![]() Had them bleedin storage heaters (they were there when I moved here). > ![]() Took me about a week, including a few 12 hour shifts. Worth it though (saved a few grand and racked a load of brownie points up). Next, mounting the triax 1m dish on a scaffold pole in the garden. The missus can't greet and girn at me noo. : ![]() Got the pole , need some postcrete and a strengthening bracket (which I'm going to make at work next week). Probably do the install next weekend if weather is ok. Need a new lnb. Any suggestions? Great to be back. ![]()

Good to have you back. Thought you'd fallen down a deep hole!
Well, you have my admiration. That's no small job :clap: Try the Sharp 0.3dB for around £16, or the Inverto White Tech single (not easy to find in the UK.)

I like the MTi Bluelines. I've had quite good results with them. Even managed to get a sniff of a few of the Vertical transponders off 7w with my Twin one
![]() I've also had good results with the Nordic stuff off 1w and the German stuff off Astra 3a @ 23.5e ![]() ![]() Nano
