2D in Malta??

[xemxijas]

i have a Channel Master 1.2 m dish. I have never been able to pick up ITV or ITV 2. I presume this will be the case with the beeb at the end of the month. Can anyone who lives in my area Malta or Gozo receive any signal From Astra 2D,and with what dish size?
i know a lot of expats who have 1.8mt max dishes with no luck

regards Daron

xemxija there is not a hope of getting anything from 2d with a 1.2m dish

not sure what size you would need but probably in the region of 3m.

give one of the many local sat operators a call they'll probably know

my landlord for sure would not allow a monster on his roof. not sure my bank balance would either

@kop64

bbc channels are shortly moving to the same satellite as itv and so these will soon disappear from your screen, bbc1, 2, 3, 4, cbbc, cbbebies, bbc news 24 and all the bbc radio channels: likely change to be end of May

c4 and c5 will be ok for the time being
