[QUOTE="Pedro0102, post: 828007, member: 335902"] And the same person managed to get 4seven on a well optimised 1m dish in the same area but just above the reception threshold. So far there are positive reports down to Coimbra with a 1.5m dish. Further south from Coimbra no one has declared to be able to get the 2F transponders. But the fact is that apart from a couple of reports in the Lisbon area saying that they don't manage to get Astra 2F with 2m and 2.4m dishes I've also not seen any positive nor negative reports from all the area between Coimbra and Lisbon. We are speaking about a straight line distance of 180km but the actual behaviour of the footprint in all this region is pretty much unknown. Also, we have to keep in mind that the 28.2E in this area of the Iberian peninsula may not be very well optimised as before the reception (even with the 2D) was quite easy with small dishes. Also, I don't think the are that many dishes larger than 1.8m around here. [/QUOTE]
