very nice i'm tempted to get one as mini dishes are so flimsy they even do a 90cm one (must not spend anymore lol)

that wall mount is fine for fixed dish

You need a proper universal LNB to get the full benefit from the bigger dish, at the moment the LNB is only seeing the size of a standard mini dish

Visiosat SMC dishes are great and they look damn nice.

Yes, I did buy a 'proper one' but it was faulty. Sent it back by airmail to HM sat de in Germany and will post how refund or replacement goes. However as I am only doing 28.2e the signal is 75% even with the wrong LNB.

Yep, they have started having Visiosat in stock shipping all over Europe.

I would recommend their 120cm dish, it's very good from what i have heard.

Here it is at the right.....don't ask me why they have cut the lower part of the dish, maybe to make it look smaller?
