That depends on your location.

If you are anywhere in the UK I suggest a 60cm Zone2 Dish (looks like a Sly dish only bigger) I would also recomend a Monoblock LNB to maxamise your options. As you can also receive Astra 19e as well as Hotbird.

Hope that helps.

Hi there
I live in the North East of England (on the Humber) and I have a 60cm Zone2 Dish with Technomate TM-1000D+ and the reception is great.
I get 80% pick up level all the time with no break ups.
The dish is in an unobstructed clear location (second storey mount)
It is mounted really close the wall and has no movement.

I am gonna paint it the same as the bricks soon.
