Its below the horizon from your perspective. Same as we can't pick up dish network etc because the earth blocks line of sight between dish and satellite.__________________

Actually if you have a big dish(think 5.2metre)or a 4.2 if you live on the irish coast then 61.5west is Doable JustQuote:Originally Posted by rick1980
