if you look at that picture, with the relative size of the LNB feed horn and the dish, it looks damn small. don't expect it to be a >1meter dish.

here's a little quote from astro
QUOTE Q: Does the High-Definition service support surround sound? A: Only certain High-Definition channels and programmes will be available in surround sound and compatible to Dolby Digital. Customers may need to connect the digital audio output from the box directly to their home theatre system that has a Dolby digital box. imagine hooking up the stb to the tv with hdmi (does it carry video&audio or video only?)...your mom was watching a hd show with DD5.1 (does astro support DD5.1 or just marketing gimmick about surround sound?).....then she complain:"why this channel no sound?"   do you think the stb support downmix of DD?
