I really can't explain it away Skomedal! But, as I have a Sky subscription it does not matter too much. Paul! I would be pushing my luck with a 1.1 meter dish. I already have radio antennas up without starting starting to look like Goonhilly! :)

Should do well with a Gib 1m and decent Lnb.

What would be a decent/best LNB?

inverto black ultra is the lnbf of choice now although there seems to be a higher than usual number of faulty ones being sold

... and be wary of not getting the Black Premium by accident. Nothing wrong with the Black Premium but generally people have better results with the Ultra in fringe conditions :)

Ok thanks. I'm looking to get a 1.2 metre dish also. Which one would be best to get?

There are lots of Inverto variants and many reports of the wrong one being sent in fulfilment.

Mostly from non-UK suppliers, I hasten to add.

Right I see. Got it from a uk dealer so hopefully get the right one. Will I be able to pull in 4.8 east with a 1.1m dish and the lnb from my location here in northern Ireland do you think?
