[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 805906, member: 176362"] Without spending a LOT of money you cant get them. Satellites have shaped transmission beams for a very good reason - to limit the coverage as far as possible to the intended reception area. In Sweden you will get most of the European satellites without any problems on a smallish dish. Once you start wanting the more obscure satellites then the dish sizes required and the associated costs go up RAPIDLY. To be honest the easiest way of getting them will to find a company that will supply them as IPTV streams via your broadband service. Or get a friend / family member within the desired service area to slingbox the channels to you via broadband. Or you could just move to India or sub Saharan Africa of course - that would probably work out cheaper than investing in numerous dishes of various sizes with no guarantee of success! (Our suggestion of 3.7m for Paksat was just a guess - for consistent reception its quite possible you would need something MUCH bigger! How many big dishes do you want to buy to find out??) [/QUOTE]
