Non-Sky installers in Dublin area?

Its interesting how limited choice in Ireland we have when comes to anything different to Sky offer. Is anyone aware of any shops in Ireland that stock a decent catalog of satellite hardware?

Basically here’s what I would like to achieve. Dish size 80 cm , 4 LNB’s on one dish (13.0E, 19.2E, 28.2E and 28.5E) and 4 way weatherproof Diseq connected to Nvision or Humax receiver. I don’t have any of this equipment yet. As far as I can see there are very few places in Ireland where you can get any satellite equipment and catalog is very VERY limited. I don’t mind (no choice by the looks of it) buying it all from England.

I would like to get installer to connect this for me… I've never positioned dish and LNB’s so I’m afraid guessing would be too difficult for me. Does anyone know any installers in Dublin area?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the response. Yes, that sticky sucks (am I allowed to say that?) :eek:

Apart from Satellite.ie there is nothing there worth bothering with. Satellite.ie to me looks like the best one. I mean most professional looking site in Ireland . The rest is mainly UK and Irish web pages with little or no information.

Thanks for the kind words but I do know there are other guys in Dublin like freesat.ie for example

Wow Tony! I’m impressed! It takes a real decent man to point to potential competition. Thanks man! I’ll defo be in touch. I’m still in process of learning about satellites (yes i'm n00b..hehehe) so the plan is to be going ahead with some sort of setup in October..

You'll get those last two on one LNB, would be far too close to use two on anyway!

MYOB, appreciated! I didn’t know that.

Honestly I've no problem pointing out where there are other suppliers as I think good competition benefits us all both retailers and consumers.
