[QUOTE="mrdaveb, post: 35950, member: 177600"] Hi. I've got a trusty (old) 90cm dish with a few dents in it and a shiny new Invacom LNB (old LNB didn't do digital) pointing at 1 West. Signal strength is about 65%, with a few channels working perfectly (98-100% data), and the other few being hopelessly mangled (the box says 0% data, but that can't be right). The rest are conax encrypted, and I don't have the CAM yet. Anyway, I suppose the question is... is my dish going to be big enough for the encrypted channels? I realise I'm pushing it a bit. I notice in What Satellite that some channels seem to require a larger dish (including TV4 which is a channel I want) - are some channels broadcast weaker? If so, why? If I have to buy a new dish, what size do you recommend? Can you recommend an online store or would it be cheaper to just find something locally? Thanks! Regards, DaveB [/QUOTE]
