Hi, can anyone advise on dish sizes for the following please, location is liverpool, uk. Looking for smallest possible, 60cm would be ideal :D

4.8 viasat sports
23.5 fox sports
 
23.5E is very strong, so a 60cm shouldn't be a problem, unfortunately 4.8E, Viasat sports, is a different matter, for the Nordic beam you'll probably need at least a 1M dish, and maybe larger, to avoid losing signal in the rain.
 
look on satbeams.com, it will provide an active footprint map, select the satellite from the list, and any beam or transponder, you can then zoom into your location and click on it, it will give you an estimated dish size needed for that satellite.

Excellent. Thanks to all.
