hi guys,

looking for a wee bit of help here,can i get a signal from 13e to gain access to rtl channel with a 30cm dish and fta reciever or do i need a bigger dish

with thanks neil
 
Are you after Formula One?!

It's on 19.2E as well, of course.

30cm oop North is almost certainly too small, but both Birds are strong, so you might get lucky.
 
Somebody has a satellite dish in Lochwinnoch? I thought it was like the wicker man up there! (Im in Johnstone which is about 4 mile from there), your best shooting for 19E as its much stronger than hotbird up here in sunny central Scotland.
 
Are you sure the dish is just 30cm? even the smallest camping dish in the suitcase kit I have seen has been 38cm, not much of a difference I know, its just I've never heard of a dish as small as this.
 
so a 38cm dish on 19.2E should work, so i can my fix of f1 then
 
Yes should work buddy, I dont know how much of a rain margin you will get though, you can do much better on a Zone 2 Sky dish up here, I used to use a modded Zone 2 for Hotbird.
 
19E is good for free to air heavy weight boxing also mate.
 
i was hoping with the tevion mobile satelite kit to run from south facing window and only use it for the f1

according to dishfinders i have a clean line of sight

Oh yeah they wee kits have a suction cup attachment for the dish, well that should be fine then.
 
so this should work ok, if so can get a tevion mobile kit for 35 quid :)

Is on the offer for this week in Aldi then?
 
Cool, you better get in there then!
 
is it easy to set up and get a good lock on the satellite signal
 
the idea is

only put mobile dish for the f1 qually and race on the friday before and take down after main race

You will more than likely need the window open though to get a signal with such a small dish
 
would it better to have a dish with twin lnb for sky and astra 19.2E would i need 2 boxes or switchable connections

You cant get a monoblock that does 19E & 28E mate, but you can get both with a mod on a Zone 2 $ky dish, I have done this & it works well, I have photos on here of the setup.
