[QUOTE="Peter2, post: 829257, member: 24945"] Hi mm, Thanks for this link, am trying to decipher it. ;) Is that *frequency* a range of channels and if so, is that what can be found on your link? What do you mean by '... dishes must be powered'? That it needs a motor to be able to move? How do these bands relate to channels/satellites? We have 3 providers in Belgium, Telesat seems to mainly serve french part, Mobistar only sells triple play and TV Vlaanderen is what I had in mind since they have the majority of stations that we know in the flemish part. From what I have found yet, they 'give access' (don't know if this is the right terminology here) to Astra 1 en 3 and from [url=http://www.dishpointer.com]Satellite Finder / Dish Pointing Calculator with Google Maps | DishPointer.com[/url] I got this as being the most popular for Belgium: 1. 19.2E ASTRA 1H | 1KR | 1L | 1M | 1N | 2C 2. 13E HOT BIRD 6 | HOT BIRD 8 | HOT BIRD 9 3. 23.5E ASTRA 3A | ASTRA 3B 4. 5W ATLANTIC BIRD 3 5. 28.2E ASTRA 2A | ASTRA 2B | ASTRA 2D Is that '1H' a responder? The fact that Astra 1 & 3 are the ones I'm looking at and they are not completely in the same direction, does that have anything to do with the need for - in this case - 2 LNB's? Apart from the number of LNB's and tuners, is there anything else I need then: dish, mounting arm for LNB's, cable and of course subscription? (to have a better understanding) Is it correct that for watching 1 station and recording another at the same time, if it's not from the same... ?transponder?, I need at least 2 tuners? How is a subscription linked to a system? You see, lots of questions. :ooops: [/QUOTE]
