[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 1143691, member: 330868"] I would definitely think you’d get a usable terrestrial signal from Boulogne (Mont Lambert) there with not too much problem, especially if you can see the coast of France! How well can you hear radio stations like Europe 2 on 91.5FM, France Musique on 89.4 and France Info on 106.5? They’re from the same transmitter site. Any TV that’s less than about 12 years old should be able to decode the French channels even if it doesn’t support Freeview HD (they use the legacy DVB-T format but with the newer MPEG4 video standard in 1080 HD). Otherwise it will just be a case of moving the minidish round to look at the satellite at 5°W as mentioned. I would have thought the signal will be alright even on a smaller dish that far south and close to France. There’s a sharp cut-off on the beam nowadays but it starts a fair bit further north into England. It’s still very strong where I am in Gloucestershire for example. [/QUOTE]
