[QUOTE="joddle, post: 801121, member: 247983"] I think all of the above is good and accurate - I would add however that if considering using 1n for the next 12 months (or whatever time we get with it!) use the smallest and cheapest dish you can get away with rather than the otherway around as we really dont know what we will need when 2e finally starts transmitting the UK freeview and sky services. My logic for this is if you spend a lot and later find the dish is then not big enough you will have wasted a lot of money - and also if you buy the most expensive dish you may find it was not needed - and so again you will have wasted loads of dosh! If you are wanting to and able to take advantage of the 1n signal now good luck to you but be prepared for possibly expensive changes later next year. For those of us who already have systems up and running the decisions are a bit easier - we simply wait to see if it will still work once 1n moves!!!! [/QUOTE]
