Should be quite possible.Any chance 3.1e could be reached in the Midlands with an 80cm dish?
Should be quite possible.

Looking at getting a new dish and trying to decide on size, would this list still be suitable or are there any amendments?
Many thanks
I’m still quite new to this, and still trying to understand everything.
If you don’t mind me asking, how do you calculate the sizes. For example I’ve been using lyngsat and satbeams, and they give sizes of 55cm for UK for 52east.
I’m just erring on the side of caution at the moment, as I don’t want to buy a dish and then discover that it’s too small.
Thanks mate, for the biss feeds at 10e. Do you have any idea if a 97cm/100cm dish would be suitable, or would I need to go bigger?
