We cant give you that info at the moment as the direction will differ depending on exactly where you are located :D

If you are in Bombay the azimuth for Hotbird is 259 degrees and elevation is just over 20 degrees. The transponders from the Hotbird cluster are centred over europe. Unless you have a very large dish you might not get any indication of a signal from Hotbirds.

Hello everybody,

As i've seen in this forum there are quite a lot of people that know about Hotbird reception in India. I am a technical moderator on the greek satellite forum of http://www.sdtv.gr/forum_index.asp . Lately we got an question from a lady who will move to New Dehli and she would like to watch the greek Nova package of which she has now a subscription running since living still in Greece. My concern is that i am not sure if a reception is at all possible in that area of India and if so with which dish diameter in minimum. I fear that if it is, one might need an expensive 4.50m dish or probably much bigger. In the past i had heard of reception in Mumbai on 4.50m dishes (source Tele Satellite Magazine many years before) and if i am not wrong in Bangalore they achieved also to get something on a 6m dish. I know that in Pakistan the reception of many Widebeam Transponders of Hotbird 2/3/4/6 is possible with solid handmade dishes ranging from 1.80m up to 4m so that's why i have a very little hope that these particular frequencies 10.930H/11.242V/11.823H/12.169H/12.558V/12.597V are also receivable in New Dehli without much signal quality fading depending on day/night, summer/winter time, heat, moisture and so on. The other problem which i see is the very low elevation of 13E in New Dehli which i calculated with Christian Mitius' tool here: http://www.satlex.net/en/azel_calc-...28.60,77.20&la=28.60&lo=77.20&country_code=in .

It would be very kind of you to tell me your experience and if possible telling me as well which expert should she contact to install such a big dish if allowed or if she still wants to spend such a fortune.

By the way, the original thread in greek is located here: http://www.sdtv.gr/forum_posts.asp?TID=4221&PN=1&TPN=1


Thank you very much for your time and help in advance.
My best regards, Christos Gardikiotis - Stuttgart/Germany

I checked their site and they seem to be the right ones to contact.

Please do not post phone numbers on the open forum.

Look at the time stamps on the previous posts. This thread is 3 years old - I very much doubt that any of the folk are still looking for a dish right now.
