Have one of these philex systems

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Philex-28212R-Free-Air-Satellite/dp/B001GXQUOK/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1328210094&sr=8-3

Pretty happy with it so far but would like to add another room to the system. Anyone know or have a link to what kind of dual or quad lnb will fit the bracket.

Also wondering if anyone has any advise on what reciever to get. Wondering should i get a cheap FTA one or is it worth spending a little extra on a freesat box.

any advice welcomed

I wouldnt waste any money on buying an lnb for thwose Philex dishes they are poorly made and I'm forever taking them down, replace it with a sky dish and a quad lnb or better still a triax dish and dual or quad lnb.

will a quad lnb from a sky dish fit this? seen a few of them advertised on amazon

No a sky quad lnb is designed for a sky dish only, it mite work but not properly..as I advised change the lot as the dish will rust in a matter of months or get damaged by wind....constantly changing them as a result....you would get a dish and quad for about 40-50euro and save yourself a headache in the future.
