My System: 75e-75w C & KU, 36v h-h /36v & diseqc actuators / diseqc -USALS motors / Anlg to HD Channel Masters C120s dishes, stb's inc echo3000, lnbs, meters, custom polar mounts & elevation/incline actuator conversions... | What exactly is included in that ... .. install only... ...install & supply dish & cable ... what dish (brand).. what lnb... bracket/s... cable length.. height.. access problems... which satellite do you want (or beam).. example.. a basic 80+ lnb x 12m cable easy access to Hotbird installed or south wall or same 80 over a roof with long pole and much stronger brackets or access to a weaker satellite etc.. | ||

I'd say go for a 95 or 1m if there are no major reasons not to ... mainly because it gets you on 26e there & the popular fta MBC channels with some decent rain fade in Manchester if it's done well (which is a good acid test for the whole arc there at that dish size). Where are you (roughly) we actually do parts of Manchester. | ||
