[QUOTE="Old Satellite, post: 698, member: 175277"] [updated:LAST EDITED ON 25-Jun-02 AT 12:12 PM (GMT)]The PAS 9 Satellite has an offset foot print that covers the lower parts of Europe as well as latin america and the northern USA. If you wish you may click on the previously supplied link then select the C band Americas footprint map, then you will see that the foot print is around 33-36db in Europe. Many of the satellites from NSS (806)and intelsat I805 have the same facility. The NSS 806 and I805 have a higher recievable transponder signal in to Europe and many of the transponders can be recieved on a 1.8 mtr C band satellite dish Th 4040 Horizontal NHK transponder on PAS 9 has a field error correction rate(FEC of 3/4) this is also additionally helps in the reception of that set of channels, compared with many other transponders on the same satellite which have FEC of 7/8 I currently have a 3.7 mtr at my Belgium Location and I can receive all of the C band Transponders irrespective of local weather on PAS9, Additionally at my UK home I have a 2.0 mtr and a majority (including the NHK package) in good weather conditions are also recievable. The PAS 10 3730 Horizontal Transponder also has a fec of 3/4 this can is recieved at my belgium location with a 75-80% signal strength Weather extremes do not effect reception My UK location PAS 10 3730H on a 2.0 mtr C band dish results in around 40-45% Weather extremes do effect reception. Dependent on your exact location in Europe A high quality 3.0 mtr solid satellite dish with c band should be ok, however has I requested for confimation of location to advise and help further also.
