[mythtv-users] SkyStar 2

I've recently come into posession of a pair of Technisat SkyStar 2
dvb-s cards, and I have no idea what to do with them.

I'm a long time mythtv user, and I've had systems capturing from bttv,
pvr-150, and firewire cards, but never dvb.  In fact, I barely know
where to begin, so I am turning to the list for suggestions.

I've found LyngSat, and that seems to be the place for information on
available satellite feeds, but I don't even know what kind of dish I
need to source now.

If anyone has any helpful suggestions or links to resources, I'd
appreciate them.

Thanks,

p.s. The plan is to integrate these cards into my existing myth
system, which consists of a underpowered FC5 master backend, a well
powered FC5 slave/frontend, and a pair of MacOS frontends.
