If You could choose

any 4 sat´s in the sky (regardless of cards and encrytion) what would U take ?

Would it be Astra and Hotbird, Thor and Sirus or Polsat or Nilesat ?

I think I would try to get the four first but, perhaps U have a better choice ?

I have a toroid with 6 lnb´s on so I can´t look all over the sky but still can get me some good sat´s It is time for me to put it back on the house, been down for a while when I had other things to fix.

So I just wait for a calm day

Think I will start with Astra and then go as far west as I can

Astra 19.2E is absolutely best with Taquilla and many others.

Hotbird 13E comes second on the list

Thor 1W comes third.

Astra 28.2E comes fourth, however Sky is one if the worst packages in my opinion, well i don't like Viasat at 5E, really bad package also.
