[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 949727, member: 325666"] Looking at the footprint map of the 16E Ka band ... this does appear to fall short of Ireland sadly .. I know I have problems in Manchester ...and suspect these problems would worsten in Western and Northern Scotland...parts of Wales and of Course Ireland .. My guess ..not impossible but a very large dish would be needed. You may well be ok with 7E though ..as this is quite strong and doable on a 1Mtr dish over most of the UK I think.. To this end ... Now that we have quite a few group members with the new Inverto Ka/Ku lnb ... perhaps it's time to start a reception report list ..fot these 2 ka sat positions.. Reports welcomed in this thread.. 7E and 16E channel reception reports plus dish size used and of course location .. rgds VS I'll start .. around 70% of the ka channels broadcast at 16E are lockable on a 1.5 mtr dish (variation subject to time of day and weather. All Ka channels broadcast at 7E are do-able on a 1mtr dish ...but I would suggest a 1.2mtr minimum for all weather reception. Saorsat at 9E is not possible regardless of dish size I suspect.. Receivers used include F15 ,SX6, and TBS card Location Manchester [/QUOTE]
