My System: IDD CI24 ECONO MM Penta 1.20 Galaxy II 1.2Mtr Polar MTG yes it has been on the arc for 21 years and is still driven by a modified wiper motor from a Ford Anglia. It's like me sometimes groans but always performs

Depends which part of Cumbria, it is your longitude that determines that, I would guess you are about 1 or 2 degrees West, but you will have to say

5W or 1W, it depends on your longitude. It won't make much difference which one you choose really as Cumbria sits between the two sats.
