SK78e - Satgear Portable 78cm Satellite kit with Easyfind Receiver

The EASYFIND system means setting up is incredibly simple - it literally takes seconds! Just select the Astra 2 satellite with the remote, then rotate the dish until the LED light on the LNB turns green. That's it!!!

The Easyfind LNB is ultra low-noise at 0.1dB, which means that it is more sensitive and higher quality.

It also means there's no need to setup and use a satfinder meter. It couldn't be simpler.

All our Satgear kits are pre-built and pre-tuned. The kit comes in three sections that you just push together and tighten the knobs (no tools required). If the kit includes a receiver, then we pre-tune it to the Astra 2 UK satellite to ensure there's no channel scanning required and the picture comes up the moment you point the dish at the satellite.

This 78cm kit will work throughout the UK, France and Spain down to Barcelona for UK TV from the Astra 2 satellites (for UK Free to Air and SKY channels). You can also use it to get foreign language channels from many other satellites. In fact, it will cover many parts of Europe.

The kit includes:

  • Easyfind 12v/240v portable satellite receiver
  • 78cm top quality satellite dish with robust folding arm and easy-align bracket
  • Easyfind single 0.1dB LNB, High Definition ready with satellite location LED
  • 10m high quality satellite coax cable with ready made sealed connectors
  • Strong aluminium satellite tripod with pegs for ground fixing if required
  • Satgear compass for accurate alignment
  • Satellite holdall - heavy duty for storing the entire kit
  • Full Satgear setup and dish alignment instructions

Receiver Features

This receiver is the EASYFIND-enhanced version of the Comag de-facto standard for Free to Air satellite reception for caravans and campers. It has a 12v power option, is simple to operate, compact and very light.

  • Remote control handset included
  • Power draw of only 12w in use and 2W in standby mode
  • 12 volt or 240 volt power options with included 12v car and 240v mains adapters
  • Full english instructions - simple to setup in minutes
  • Receive many hundreds of UK channels, all the Freesat channels and more
  • 1 SCART connection for TV
  • Composite video (Yellow) and Audio (Red and White) outputs for TVs without a SCART socket
  • Screen aspect ratios can be set to 4:3, 16:9, and automatically (letterbox)
  • Electronic Programme Guide EPG (up to 14 days in advance, channel-dependent)
  • Pre-programmed for all main satellites and others are easily configured
  • The multilingual user interface supports more than 10 languages
  • Dimensions (WxDxH): 210mm x 130mm x 48mm

The dish is very high quality with a strong arm that folds up and down into position for compact stowage and simple setup.

The LNB is compact, high quality, low noise and just clips into place.

The angle of the dish is adjusted on a unique smooth sliding mechanism for easy setup.

The entire kit is very lightweight - only 7KG (plus 1KG for the heavy duty satellite holdall).

The tripod is collapsible and very solid when erected -in fact it's virtually immovable. It has a specially designed neck to allow unrestricted rotation of the satellite dish independent of the base. The attached support pin allows rotation without tightening the clamp until you have set the correct direction.

Note that this kit includes our fantastic EASYFIND Free to Air receiver! If you have a Freeview TV, you still need this receiver, which will then connect to your Freeview TV using a scart socket.

Note, if you are travelling abroad this 78cm kit is ideal for reception in many parts of Europe. It will cover the Benelux countries, most of Germany, all of France (even down to the South), and Spain as far as Barcelona.

I recently bought a satgear 78cm dish and easyfind system. Really nice quality package and lighter than I thought. Used it twice now and no complaints

I bought a satgear easyfind kit and it took very little time to get it working. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I had some questions though during the setting up stage and called their support number and the gentleman I spoke to was more than helpful. A really well put together and thought out kit. Well worth the money for minimum hassle.

I have a 65cm version of the Satgear 78cm easyfind kit and I must say it is the best purchase I have made in a long time. Not only did it work straight from the box, it is very easy to set up and adjust.

The set up guide provided is very good and it is clear this company know what they are doing. I have had other systems in the past and they have been no where near as good. I was sceptical when the sales chap at Satgear tried to steer me towards easyfind as it was priced more than the standard 65cm satellites. Now I see that their advice was more than worth it.

Top marks Satgear for a really good and enjoyable satellite kit.

I bought this 5 months ago and recently got it out for the new season. It worked within a minute of setting it up.

This a good quality kit, very sturdy and well made. All the instructions are easy to follow too.
