Hi,

The easiest way of getting the equipment is to buy online.

A 1m motorised dish is a good option, coupled with one of the Technomates.

Speak to southernsatellite he would sort you out with what you need, expect to pay £150 to £200 for a basic setup.

Channel wise, you can get literally thousands of channels, a lot of it is foreign and rubbish, but its usually possible to find something worth watching.

Take a look on lyngsat.com to see what channels there are on the various satellites.

Robbo
