Try dish pointer on the Site Links button above.
 
The best way to answer this (initially) is to suggest you have a play with Dishpointer.

There's a link to it at the top of the page or you can Google it.

It neatly pulls together your location and your requirements and gives you most of the answers.


Edit: What hexah said !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To jump the gun, if there are trees etc in the way, let Messines ridge be your inspiration. O-Ha
 
I cannot think that the tragic death of 42,000 people is worthy compensation for line of sight issues :-duel
