Hi all,
I'm quite new to satellites etc (I've been reading about them for about a week or so) and i think I've found the package that i wanna buy. My main goal is to get the premiership football for next season (man united fan :P) and I've been reading about 'Digitalb Super Sports'. I've read quite a bit about this and i think its probably the best option for me ![]() So I'm wondering how you work out what size dish i would need? I live in Manchester and Ive been looking at: http://www.lyngsat-maps.com/maps/ew2_wide.html which i think shows that a 50cm dish would do :S (I'm not sure that's right though since I've seen quite a lot of people on here recommending 100cm). So i'm wondering if 80cm is big enough for the Manchester area? |

1 Meter Satellite Dish, Get a relitivly decent box like a technomate that can read cards, use Liveonsat.com for channel listings for games as Digialb are not reliable for producing the correct listings but they do there best to tell you in advance, and away you go.

Or if you're on a budget, just buy everything but the card and see what you can get for nothing.
In the last five years, I've only needed a card to watch three Chelsea games - the rest have been available on free hacks. Depends if you're prepared to do a little weekly chasing and tweaking. A lot more fun too.

Methinks the Albanian Mafia are getting greedy.

Yes I feel the same, they will be the losers as people won't bother with it
