[QUOTE="guest poster, post: 526266, member: 262401"] We've definitely had a 33.2 degree spread working on a.... zone 1 Sky dish.. (by accident:-rofl2) 5w -13e- 28.2e (mid UK- E Cheshire) and considered 40 degrees as the possible max (on a Sky dish).... so it should all be getable on a proper dish like that ...... except ... .........the one that sticks out is 26e ... ......... which is never the easiest to get on sub 1m dishes especially there and through diseqc switches with their insertion losses. All the others are OK.except for some weaker beams.. I'd try 26e on its own first without a diseqc switch to see if it's OK and especially if you can nail some of the weaker TPs (mainly 11919h 27500)... and definitly use your best performing LNB on that sat and consider bypassing the diseqc just for that one. Well worth getting 26e but you might have to add a second dish just for 26e... 1.2m poss there to get any real rain fade margin. :cool::cool::cool::cool: [/QUOTE]
