Lemon 070 PVR - 320GB

    Guys,

    I picked up a 320GB Lemon 070 PVR for €180 - not sure if there's any left. 2 Cam slots, USB, PVR etc - didn't think it was a bad price.

    Connected it up to a sky digitial dish and picked up several hundred channels (more touching bodies than sense). Got all the BBC's / Channel 4's etc etc.

    Thinking of installing it in an apartment - can the dish be mounted on the bottom floor (say 12-15ft off the ground)? Would I be best getting some one to install the dish?

    Cheers.

    Edit-

    Just got a dish installed with this baby - working great even with 500ft tree's blocking the dish :)

    Picking up over 100 channels on the ASTRA 2 dish - removed most of the duplicates.

    Currently watching E4 whilst recording Xfactor (for the other half) on STV.

    xD

    Hi lordlame seems like a good deal , by the way if you ever need to move or setup your dish again here is the link to DIY setup for the satilie that Sky use, the SES Astra :- http://www.onastra.com/how-to-receive-astra/installation-assistant/index.php . It gives some pointers as to distance any from objects etc.

    The dish is actually looking upward at about 22 degrees. Trees would actually totally block it. But they would have to be higher than dish height by 1/2 the distance away.

    I mounted the dish on the top of a 3 storey apartment block :) Got about 50% signal with 14-20% signal quality. No problems with any of the channels.
