Well done.

For another £40 I would be tempted to motorize the second dish. To have installed 2 dishes (due to obstructions), you are obviously of the same mind as me. You want to be able to receive everything that you can. Even if there's nothing on worth watching.

I finally got round to motorizing the second dish Got the motor from Maplin, a bargain at £37.49 plus a voucher for 3 quid made it £34.49. I even managed to set it up myself with a little help from DishPointer.com

Yep, that is a good price for a motor, it is a Moteck clone I believe.
