All Hotbirds 1/2/3/4/6 Widebeams can be received very well with a 1.2m, even with smaller diameters but a 1.2m is better since bad weather in winter can appear.
The Hotbird 2/3/4 Superbeams instead need 5m in Pafos (Western coast) as a friend of mine told me. There are hotels with
sky Italy reception and this huge dish is really needed to get everything on 24h basis. So to make it short, with a 1.2m you would lose the encrypted
sky Italy and french TPS frequencies.
W3A on 7E is an easy satellite in Cyprus as well. 1m should be ok.
In case you need more information about reception in Greece and Cyprus there is a greek forum on
www.sdtv.gr.
