hey anyone on here know what size of dish I would need for 39 east in glasgow
 
Which particular Channels are you interested in?
 
I'm using a Televes 1m dish for Bulsat package on 39e, I live in Donegal in NW of Ireland, plenty of signal quality too - never suffers rain fade.
 
The F1 & F2 beams are fine in Scotland on reasonable sized dishes. S2 is none existent here, and forget S1.
 
agree with above, id say a quality 1 meter off-set dish and universal lnbf should give plenty of bad weather margin for the europe wide beams at 10.95-11.2ghz vertical(F2 BEAM) and the 12.5 to 12.75ghz vertical/horizontal(F1 BEAM) regardsHELLASSAT2_F1_BEAM.webp HELLASSAT_F2_BEAM.webp
 
Im getting typically 11dB -12dB on the fta Bulgarian channels on an offset 39E lnb attached to the 1.1m dish aimed at 46E and only roughly set up - heaven knows how much the dish has moved in the gales over the winter!

The only Europe beam channel I have problems with is DVB-S2 The Media Office on 10955V

????? footprint where you live (Scottish Borders) indicates 60cm. roughly to 100cm by Madrid (spain) the signal is very high.
-----------------
????? la huella donde vives (Scottish Borders), indica 60cm. aproximadamente, con 100cm por Madrid (spain) la señal es muy alta.
  • F1 and F2 footprint similar to Glasgow.
  • Parecida huella F1 y F2 para Glasgow.

PD: Nothing at all to the footprint S2/Nada de nada para la huella S2 (Media Office 11473H4444 3/4 8PSK).
 
The footprint and dish size indicator are a little misleading. Because this sat is pretty low in the sky (at least this far west anyway) a bigger dish than indicated is required. Go at least a size bigger and rain fade won't be a problem.
