    no card required only a decoder

    the range of channels is limited though.

    before I got a bigger dish I just taped another LNB for 19 onto the the side of the main LNB for Sky, it worked grand for months with just a little drop out in heavy rain

    looked something like this (nicked from a Google search)

    An 80cm dish is probably the min size if you are going to use 2 lnbs to get 28e and 19e on the one dish.

    The 60cm sky dish would do for 19e if you were going to use 2 separate dishes. Some of the very weak transponders might drop out in bad weather but most should be ok.

    If I was doing it I'd go for a second 80cm dish and use it for 19 and 13 east and maybe add on 7e and 9/10e if you wanted through a 4 way diseqc switch.
