[QUOTE="Deleted, post: 20954"] @ Mark Wilcox: here in Berlin, I am told that at least 120cm, probably 150cm, maybe 180cm will be necessary. I have received many estimates of how big a dish it would have to be, but have not (yet) read from anyone in Berlin who actually really really receives 2D signals and with what. My 1m dish does not pick up a whisper of a dickybird on 2D. Also, Berlin is big, and the signal strength drop across Berlin will be quite noticable, so those in Spandau will have better chances than in those Rudow or Pankow. Note: you are not alone. Quite a few Berlin residents are active on this forum and on digitalspy.co.uk; it's only a matter of time before someone can report success or otherwise. You could consider BBC Prime - check out their schedule at [url]www.bbcprime.com[/url] and see if it interests you. £75 p.a. +VAT +£12 for the card. And you'd need a Viaccess receiver (ca. €250), and a dish pointing at Hotbird. [/QUOTE]
