Buy yourself a zone 2 minidish (60cm type). It will work fine.

Avoid the LX pipe antenna, the reviews of it are poor.

There is a cubsat antenna 50 cm from this site cost 169 Euro: _http://www.techno-com.de/shop/start.php?sat-_einzelkomponenten_sat-_motoren.php

_http://www.techno-com.de

Do a google search on cubsat (NOT cubesat) and you will find a lot more results. There are 70cm, and with dual LNB for HB and Astra.
Interesting idea, but you might still have problems with your neighbours when they find out it is a camouflaged dish.

My System: Sky+, DB 7000s, Gemini 4.3 in flash, Var on USB stick. Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Unaohm EP313, Swires Annie 204 Spectrum, Rover ST-4 Spectrum.

Also look at the digiglobe (just google for it.

_http://www.digicams-uk.com/prod30.htm

It is a Cassegrain 43cm antenna and performs pretty well, can also be used as a light.

Got a garden? If so bang a couple of fence posts into the ground next to each other and attach the dish to that instead! I use this for my 1m dish & its more than solid enough for that
