[QUOTE="longstockings, post: 68135, member: 180880"] I installed my motorised system only to find that my dish would not be able to receive hispasat from it's location on side of the house. Option 1 Put dish in back garden Problem 2 big Rotweillers would eat it Option 2 Put the dish on the front of the house Problem Girlfriend would do a John Bobbit on me (ouch) Option 3 Move the dish to the roof My setup included a 80cm polycarbonate dish but I have noticed that it does suffer in rain / high winds quite badly. South West is real stormy lately The reason I went for this dish is because I wanted the installation to be as discreet as possible and didn't want to get into trouble for having a dish larger than 90cm. But my roof is high up and no one is going to want to go up a ladder and measure my dish to see if I am breaking the rules. My Question What is the best dish up to 1.2m diameter that I can get best = great signal strength / little maintenance / good value / not too ugly It will have to be suitable for a diseqc 1.2 rotor so dish weight may be a factor Thanks [/QUOTE]
