That was the 1.8m dish with LNB etc.

Where did you find this?

Google ;-) quite a few online sources

Noted with thanks - will have to wait untill it all settles down

There are several Hungarian companies that can supply 1.8 dishes, you just need to contact them for the details as they tend not to be listed on the sites and are for pre order only.

This site has a 1.5 dish for around £250 and should be able to supply a 1.8.

This site has the same 1.5 though it is slightly more expensive but they state that 1.8 dishes can be ordered - so worth giving them a call or dropping them an email.

In the process of sorting the cables and dishes out for the house and have found the following:

180cm parabola antenna - 170,000ft


Also, as a last resort if you want a 150cm dish you won't find cheaper than this:

I am usually pretty good with tv/hi thingymajigs but all the posts ref English TV in Hungary has got me beaten to a pulp. I was going to buy an 80mm dish in England with a satalite receiver but I am confused now. My partner refered to Sky which there is a service in Hungary that you pay the rate for but we haven't got Sky in England so I dont know. Mmmmm very confusing

Got a complete breakdown with details from them it come's out at about 1300 Euros with AFA (180 cm Dish)

Wow, that's quite a jump from the 170,000 ft quoted - what do they attribute the extra 230,000ft (or thereabouts) to?

Hi Rural,
Don't know I do have a detailed breakdown though. I have contacted these guy's before regarding a 2.4 Dish and that too was expensive (around 4000 euros) I have found some other's cheaper companies which I have passed on to Keith who is investigating all the quote's. He too found 1 for around 910 Euros complete with Afa and delivery, so watch this space I guess.

I have just got off the phone with the man in charge again. They have confirmed that, even with the new prices coming in, it would come to195,000forint....confirmed. even with afa (VAT 27%) it is still £700. Why are you asking for prices in euros when you are in Hungary?

Is it possible to copy and paste the text of the breakdown so that we can see if there are any hidden extras they are charging for?

Hi Bronty,

I have not asked for the price in Euros I spoke with the Sales Director who gave me prices in both Euros and Forint see email below

Hi Carol,

I’m sorry for being late in responding, yesterday I couldn’t be back to the office.

Well, I’ve checked and we’re out of stock from 1,8m antenna. The vendor confirmed two weeks delivery time for it. You can find below our pricing for the antenna as well as for NPRM and LNB

PRICING TYPE 180 CM ANTENNA 674 EUROS 195.663 FORINT
VS1 8L NPRM ( For 1.8 Anntenna)341.38 EUROS 99.000 FORINT
QUAD KU BAND LNB 65 EUROS 18.850 FORINT

TOTAL NET 313.513 FORINT
TOTAL GROSS 398.162 FORINT

(with 27% AFA)

And there are "the hidden" extras. The NPRM and LNB - whatever they might be. Is the NPRM included in Keith's price or is it just the LNB?
