As you can see from my details, I can get pick up satellites from 45E to 58W (31 in all) here on the southeast coast of the UK. However, I still have movement on the dish further west. Is there anything else beyond 58w I should be able to pick up? I did see a members signiture list 61W but not sure of their location. | ||

In theory you could but with such a small dish no I doubt it. Also there has to be a footprint transmitted over Europe in order to receive channels. In the case of 61Deg West, as you can see by checking the beams on lyngsat.com in the right hand column there are only occasional feeds aimed at Europe. _http://www.lyngsat.com/,amazonas.html | ||

My System: Cuberevo Twin HD on a 85cm motorised Fracarro Penta dish. Superior Dark Motor. Inverto BLACK Ultra Single lnb (IDLP-SINL40-ULTRA-OPP) | Thanks for the info. I was suprised to get 7W Nilesat when the footprint doesn't look anywhere near us, so was just wondering if there were any suprises up that end. OK, I was posting from work and a bit bored to be honest  lol | ||
