Hi,

Thanks.

Yeah, might be stupid to ask a question that has an answer on this forum, probably I haven't found the right words to search for. But, just to give the standard answer "use search" is doubtable attitude, because you just don't have to post if you don't want to (you are not some kind of on duty support guy who has to answer in some specific time). Again, posting twice in a raw and uploading the picture from imageshack here it is at least twice as stupid as posting once with the link. Or you were afraid that nobody's gonna click on that link anyway...

Well, pcmguire ordered one online from compusat in Vaasa. But the thing is you need to remember when you buy something - its yours.

That's basically what I am trying to do, get somebody specialized in installing these antennas, who also has some spectrum analyzer and see what type of LNB/dish do I need and if the signal is good enough for the specific satellite in my balcony. I did some calculations and it should be ok (http://www.satlex.org/fi/home.html), but I need to double check it. If I find a shop in Helsinki area, usually the guys there should know more or even have somebody who installs antennas. I've read here that putting those on the building facade or even a little outside the balcony it's out of question.

020202.fi: antennilaitteita, antenniasennuksia (You can limit the search to Helsinki area by selecting Helsingin from the Seutukunta list in the sidebar and pressing the Rajaa button.)
Keltaiset sivut (construct a search by picking Antenniasennus ja huolto, Antennikauppoja, Antennitarvikkeita ja tukkuliikkeitä, and Satelliittivastaanottojärjestelmiä in the VALITUT TOIMIALAT list, then select Helsingin seutu in the ALUERAJAUS / luetteloalue field, and finally press the HAE ILMOITUKSET button.)

If you are lazy enough not to do a search before pressing the button for this question, then you better be prepared to get answers that re not relating to your question, find your thread hijacked by someone else etc.. so stop b*tching about not getting what you want from others who are trying to help.. In fact, I ve posted many links on satellite dish, installation and where to buy..but am hard pressed to post it again!!

It is not fair to judge others and call them lazy or so. If you think the post has already been answered in many threads earlier then don't reply. There might be others who are still willing to reply.
If I am correct then replying to any thread here is totally voluntary.
