[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1147603, member: 176704"] Having one of the earlier "'orrible to align" 70-75cm TRIAX's I'd aim for something somewhat larger (say 80-90cm) -> same motor requirements, minimal (if any?) extra cost, similar set-up time/trouble, but considerably more chance of a lock on the weaker signals (and you certainly find those on 13/16/19/28E because of the directionality of some of the beams in use.) That is, of course, unless you are trying to "get away" with the planning rules allowance of one "normal" (i.e. for most places that would be interpreted as a Sky Zone 1 or Zone 2) dish and another one up to 1m - in which case I might tend to use a standard Zone 2 on the motor to start with, and then add some form of 1m later on, because the Zone 2 dish is actually pretty good (albeit that trying to fit offset standard LNBs can be difficult because of the dish shape) [/QUOTE]
