There's an active thread in this section regarding this package/satellite, but allow for at least a 2.8m dish.

It's unknown at the minute. Nilesat 201 hasn't come online yet, and people 400 miles south of you are struggling to receive Badr6 with 2.4 metre dishes due to the tuner in the ADMC box not being the most sensitive.

Complete guesswork for anyone atm. No-one in the north of the UK has it working with Badr and Nilesat 201 isnt on air yet.


Probably something approaching 4m for you with Badr 26E though, and I very much doubt Nilesat 201 will be kinder.

A 110cm will probably get you Badr-4 but not Badr6
