[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 933775, member: 243342"] Went to the house yesterday to get measurements for new furniture and thought I'd do a quick site survey... Here's the result to the east: [ATTACH=full]80409[/ATTACH] The west is as clear as it gets. So... potentially down to 57E from my height level, possibly more if I raise the dish by a metre or so. My biggest concern is the tree, which is lingering around between 53E and 42E mark (around 47E?). Probably won't cause too many issues but these things grow - unless I convince the neighbours to chop it down (unlikely) or kill it myself (not as unlikely). I could move the dish closer to the house but then I definitely lose 57E, being behind the neighbours house. Whether that part of the sky matters too much or not depends on whether I get anything form 56E (Express AM1) - if not, then I'll move it where the tree shouldn't cause too many issues in the future. I will still put a 1m (potentially 1.2m) dish on the house on the 1224 motor - that will give me clear horizons to both ends at least. [/QUOTE]
