New Installation Best small dish

Hi Guyz
after a bit of advice my daughter has just moved into her 1st house, Im going to put a a motorised dish up for and her fella. The problem we have is the dish has to be mounted on the front of the house, All the houses in the rd have sky dishses up, But with it being on the front, i didnt want to go too big. I was thinking of putting the best 65 - 75cm dish up.
And Im after your reccomendations of the best dish to put up for bringing in the sats, im in Chester.
Best regards
Al

Best regards

Hi Al,

Consider a FR Penta DIGIT 68cm, would do fairly well performance wise and should blend in nicely. Also depends on what satellites you want to receiver and your location.

There was a 55cm Fibo on Ebay last week, that should be one to look out for.

if she could get 28e 19.2e, 13e, ( 16e Poss ) and maybe 1 west (doubtful ) that would do them to be honest m8, The brick red one is a nice dish, what lnb would be best to go with it, Ive not touched repalced mine for 5 years so lost touch with lnbs for the last few years.

16E most unlikely on a 68cm.

Best small dish is always a slightly bigger one with some camouflage.

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"
