I'm sure your be getting other services on 1G in the 12Ghz range. It'll be down to dish size. Check site sponsors page for a pricing. | ||

Blog Entries: 5 My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser. | That transponder is ultra critical on skew, as there is a vertical transponder on the same frequency. | ||

| You should easily get STV 1/2/3 in Oxford with an 110cm dish. Not significantly far from you and getting them at present with an old 80cm dish setup. Check tips above about alignment and skew. | ||
