The BIG 28.2E Dish Size survey

Welcome to the BIG Sky Digital survey. Please click HERE and enter your location in to our map and enter the size of your dish your using to receive Sky Digital 28.2E. Also please add any notes e.g. "No Channel 4 at night" If you can't receive 28.2E please enter "No signal here". We hope to build a clear picture of what is needed to receive 28.2E in fringe reception areas around Europe and that this will benefit other members in the future when setting up a new system.

Message to all who post a map pin, please add the relevant reception info, I know there isn't a lot of room, but a statement like "1.8m, all BBC+ITV" would suffice, it has to be 30 characters or less. Below is the sort of thing we are looking for:)Edit, now 50 characters

Please add the relevant reception info, otherwise the map will have no value whatsoever

PS. This map is only for the reception of Astra 28.2 degrees East, particularly Astra 2D.

As a childish joke, one presumes. Like the people who are in the easternmost areas of the Middle East and claim to pick up 2D with a 50cm dish...

More likely that they just think it's a location map for members' where abouts, unfortunately due to the nature of it, we can't edit the entries. :)

PS, is this Daku from The Den?

Nothing personal gentlemen, Chris has had to take it off line this morning temporarily, as it was possibly causing a couple of serious database errors.

If you subscribe to this thread, Chris will post when he has put it back online and you will be notified, we need and value the input of our members. :)

I'm probably a few years late, but when I click on address to see the dish size survey map, I do get a Google map, but thats all !!
What am I not doing properly?
If it hasn't been there for ages, then why is there a post on it 5 days ago?
Confused, Canary Islands

Hi Hex, good to see you here. :)

How's things?

@ All - Unfortunately the Google Map does not work with the latest vBulleting releases and we're not sure whether there will be an update, so we may have to start from scratch using another method. :)
