[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 521133, member: 256551"] Hi and Welcome. You have chosen two of the trickier satellites to pick up. Down in kent, just east of London , I can manage to get the vertical transponders from 7W and most of 26E in fair whether on a 1.1m. So being a bit further north and if you want the vertical transponders from 7W as well, you will need a larger dish. Check out this thread re 7W [url]http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellite/fringe-reception-general/82546-dish-size-info-nilesat-7w-western-europe-uk-3.html[/url] Having a quick read through, a good quality 1.8m should suffice. Yes, you can install yourself, but it would not be easy for a beginner for a larger dish. A smaller 1m dish with a Diseqc motor is very 'do-able' The max dish size you can normally have without planning permission is 1m. Robbo:) [/QUOTE]
