Default Big size dishes

My parents are living in the U.K and they want to receive Nilesat channels. It takes a dish of 1,2 - 1,5 m to receive this channels.

Now I'm looking for satshops owned by arabs, turks, indians, pakistians in the U. K. Because they have knowledge of this channels.

Please advise me if you know any shops of that kind in U.K.

I appreciate all help

What a ridiculous assumption.


Why should anyone help you, asking questions like that I don't know.


For your information, my experience shows that more often than not, that people originally from areas that can receive the signals with a small dish, have not got a clue what size dish is needed here in the UK.

Also asking for suppliers of a particular nationality is racist in my opinion.

I'm looking for shops that have dealt with that kind of channels. I have contacted several suppliers and none of them know even what kind of channels or how to receive them.

That's why I'm looking for people that know something about this channels.

If you call that kind of assumption for racism then you must be very narrowminded ( no offense)

Please don't write if you don't intend to help.

You obviously havent contacted the right suppliers - any of the good ones would have been able to help you.

Where do your parents live (town or city). We will tell you roughly what size dish they need - and its going to be a mighty big dish if they want the Showtime sports channels or anything on the horizontal polarity and they live in the north of the UK!

No more comments about wanting help from one segment of the population if you please - this is a multicultural forum and we give our help to all who ask irrespective of faith or origin..
