[QUOTE="Topper, post: 533249, member: 186250"] As a rough guide the Clarke curve runs from 60deg East to 60deg West in central UK. Thus checking [URL="http://www.lyngsat.com/europe.html"]here[/URL] shows you the satellites available due East of South and [URL="http://www.lyngsat.com/atlantic.html"]here[/URL] give you sats due West of South. Your can drill down on each position and see the channels available. South is of course being the highest point of the arc for us in the central part of the UK which roughly speaking because the Greenwich meridian longitude is 0 degrees. For you in Belfast 5 deg West will probably be the top of your arc, thus roughly speaking your field of scope will be 55East to 65 West. Everybody on earth has an unseen arc but the satellites are there. [/QUOTE]
