[QUOTE="dxsat, post: 343935, member: 193607"] You could try [URL="http://www.esa-com.com/ProductTree.asp?CategoryID=436&PPP=&SP=0"]ApexSat[/URL] in Germany, they will ship abroad and speak English. (You have to register to see prices.) They list Prodelin dishes up to 4.5 metres, which would probably do the job, they are very high quality, providing better gain than other manufacturers' dishes of the same size. I've never installed one that big, however. I don't think Astra SES have anything against southern Italy, that's just bad luck as the beam just happens to fall off dramatically in your direction. An improvement in reception of 2D channels in the outer reaches of Europe is pretty unlikely. I've just looked at where you are on the map, the nearest reports I can find are: someone in NW Greece, 20kms from Albania, who gets some BBC channels on a 2.4m dish, and someone using a Patriot 3.8m south of Rome, somewhere. Just get the biggest dish you can afford and have space for- and some help installing it! [/QUOTE]
