Thanks AJ
Try 11747V 27500 5/6, it's about as strong as you will get.

atm the way im doing it is by using 8w as a starting point, i.e. drive dish to 8w then move east slowly to try and get a signal. Possible to get nilesat with 1m dish?

thanks aj

It is very fringe, so it's hard to say. All you can do is try, you won't get any horizontal tp's with a 1m.
