Small Dishes

I have a Direct TV antenna and rcvr with all the LNB, cables etc. (legitiimate, bought and paid for). My question: can this small dish and LNB equipment be used in an MPEG rcvr setup. If so, where could I find further info on this subject...tnx Doug

Hi Doug:

Your DTV dish and receiver will not work for Free To Air MPEG reception. A larger dish (30" minimum) is needed along with a DVB receiver such as Sadoun sells here on the site. Further information can be found right here in the forums.
