Hotbird and Eutelsat in Cyprus
permalink
Hi all

I want to receive tv channels in Cypus from the Hotbird and Eutelsat w3 at 7East Satelites using up to a 1.2 Dish.Am i right in thinking that i can receive Hotbird 1 to 3 channels as they have a wide or superwide footprint and would only require a 1.2 dish wheras Hotbird 6 only covers Europe and would need a bigger dish.Also would i be able to receive Eutelsat w3 at 7east with an twin lnb setup.
Lastly can you suggest a decent receiver for this purpose . I think the
Samsung DSR 9500 VIA CI or the Dream Box as they have built in encryption.

Thanks Pete
