My System: 43cm Dish, Sky Plus v2, Thomson DSI4214, FRACARRO PENTA 85cm, Invacom Twin, Moteck SG2100a H-H DiSEqC Motor, TF5000CI, TM-5200D, Sling Media, Rover Discovery ST-4, Rover SDM-1s, 57E to 58W, Tecatel 1.35m fixed on 28e, Pace D5430-N | Welcome to satellites forum, To receive the Astra 2d UK spot beam (BBC, Channel 4 & ITV), in your region you'll most likely be better off with a 2.4M dish for reliable reception although some areas close by appear to pull this beam in with a smaller dish ie.1.8M North, South and Eurobird beams can be received with a 90cm - 1.2M See coverage map for 2d _http://www.lyngsat-maps.com/maps/astra2d.html

My System: 1.8m Famaval PF Dish, Pace 3100, 2600, 430, freesat Humax HD, Freesat Grundig, 0.8m illusion motor, Dreambox DM7025 | a 1.35 can limit reception of channels at certain times of the day - so you can go for this smaller dish if you can live with not having certain channels (like bc2 and c4) on a 24./7 basis. - as you say "most of the day" - make sure it is not when you will be wanting to watch those channels generally the minimum requirement is a 1,8... in areas around benidorm a 2.4 is recommended, | ||

ok thanks, looks like the add in costa blanca times about the 1.35 dish is dreaming, it did not state the db of the so called high perf dish, it looks like i will have to stick with the 1 mt, has i have not got the room for a 1,8. would the new freesat box perform any better, i no there are both still using the same sat thanks again | ||
