[QUOTE="BGonaSTICK, post: 97323, member: 176912"] Many setups are a compromise, and if you could get 28.2E to 30W you would still have a lot of fun. You may find you can even get around to 42E. The 'main' sats are 28.2E, 19.2E 16E 13E 5E 1W 5W 30W and a few bits and pieces in between for feeds etc. Plug the 30M and elevation at the E/W extremes (at your location) etc. into the angle finder you found to work out how high you'd have to mount at the front of the house. Mesh dishes can give you some small advantage high up, both in terms of wind resistance and weight. That's something that can give a 'plastic' dish an edge up high as well (plus it's not so obvious). Most well-made dishes perform about the same at 90cm IMHO. Buy a good LNB (like the Invacom 0.3db) and some decent coax and you'll do OK. STICK [/QUOTE]
