arabsat lancaster

[Seham]

Hello everyone I live in a building with a communal dish and I have Sky subscription. How can I watch arabsat channels? Does anyone know a company or a service provider in Lancaster that can get me arabsat? Sky doesn't have arabic channels except for one channel only.

Aside from internet streams, you won't get anything arabic without a separate dish, 26E and 7W both require large dishes, but Hotbird 13E has quite a few arabic channels, a 50cm dish would do for that satellite.

seham, Im 20miles south of you I get 26e badr4 at 70% on a 90cm televes you might get away with lidl dish pointing through the window
look at where the neighbours sky dishes point can you see that direction from a window?

Anything less than 90cm and there is no chance of BADR due to the Beamwidth of the Dish being insufficiently narrow to reject signals from 28E.

yeah, youre dead right I realised what it was next to on the arc right after I posted -Duh- never go near 28e myself, try to forget its there
I guessed he was in the UNI, would have a fantastic take off from a southerly window, maybe one of those transparent 85cms would do it
