As regards the content of this thread, we appear to be getting at cross purposes here zorbua. The o/p who resides in England is referring to his brother having moved to Athens who appears to be expecting to get from 28.2 East in Athens, exactly what he can got in the UK and in order to do that he will require in the region of a 3.0mtr Dish. Perhaps my wording of foolish was incorrect and therefore for that I apologise, I should have use the word misleading to be more accurate
Nowhere in my posts have I ever mentioned not being able to get 13 East or 19 East since having lived in the Middle East I am well aware of what can and cannot be received in the Eastern Mediterranean and do not need to 'care to check lyngsat' for what I already know.
Actually yes, I did not read them, most probably thought they will be as other Forums, never thought that you cannot post 'bin files' keys' etc. etc. my fault, and I too apologise on that aspect. As regards the o/p, I fully understood that to be able to receive whatever his brother received in the UK entailed a 3 meter Dish, no question about that, in fact thats why I adviced him to go for the 26e, instead, if he wanted too, but if he wanted to go for a partial reception of the 28e channels I believe he can do so provided he asembles a 1.2 Dish, very properly aligned on the Sat. Hopfully this clarify everything to everyone satisfaction. (Phew Chr*st have to think in Maltese and type out everything in English, quite a headache in situations like this, I can tell you m8)
