[QUOTE="frankg4553, post: 407414, member: 188424"] I've been reading up so much on dishes that I'm a bit confused now :confused: I'm getting varying info that I need anything from an 80cm to a 1 metre dish to get Hispasat at my location. Obviously I don't want to put up a larger dish than I need to be able to get good reception in all weathers.....the usual worries over it looking too big and then there's the wind problem. I am really only interested in getting 28.2/28.5, 19.2 and 13E and also Hispasat as I can't see me getting much use out of the others, which is why I'm uncertain about going motorised. So....what size dish would gaurantee the quality of reception I'm after on the 3 eastern sats and what size on the Hispasat. If I did go motorised, what size would gaurantee quality reception on all four sats. I suppose what I would like to do is put up an 80cm rather than a 1 metre if I could get the quality of reception, but would I be disappointed.....and then wish I gone to a 90cm or 1 metre :confused: Would quality/make of dish make a difference to my choice on size? Thanks for your help and patience so far Frank [/QUOTE]
