@ np58re Not really the right thread or section for this question, will split and move. Not sure what you will need, but you can guarantee that the dish will not be a small one for Astra 2D, will do some research, problem is that unless someone there has already tried, there are no other countries really close enough to make a comparison. At a compass bearing of 113 degrees from your location and only 18 degrees of elevation you will need to make sure that there is nothing in the way.

There is a brief report here but it is a bit out of date.
