Here is reception data aquired by many people around Europe.

This map shows what size is needed for EURO beam

Here is a guy in Cyprus receiving the Nordic Beam from Sirius 4 with a 6 meter dish.

Second picture shows the signal he gets on his Dreambox.

Thats plain wrongs - 0.9m for northern UK is well over rated. The BSS beams will be an easy catch on a zone 1 43cm dish.

It might be accurate for the FSS beam - which is the weakest of the 3 here.

And you arent telling me theres bugger all reception in Trondheim!

No its Euro beam.

Analoguesat · 01-02-08, 10:21 PM

You think local council would approve the above dish in a cottage garden in UK?

I tell them i need to watch Swedish TV and sports.

I'm having trouble getting a 90cm dish approved by the wife.A 6 meter one would mean divorce.

Same here blasting in on a 43cm dish and betting shops here use a 1.2m Andrew or prodelin on sis for rain fade where a 60cm or 80cm dish at the most would be big enough to allow for rain fade
