I bought one of these, meant for caravans but it is absolutely outstanding. When my Sky dish broke down for the umpteenth time I used it connected to the Sky box. I even took the thing out to Iraq with me a few years back. It is easy to set up to - You attach a compass device to it and aim it roughly at the satellite then the box emits a high pitched sound that gets louder with a good signal so you can position it. It picks up much more than Astra too, plenty of channels from around the world.
