[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 1153634, member: 176362"] Never mind the receiver at the moment - you need to think about the practicality of the dish. You do realise just how big a 1.5 / 1.8m diameter dish is? It will need fixing VERY firmly - maybe to a flat concrete patio or roof? If it needs to be pole mounted at ground level you are going to need a significant amout of concrete to secure the post, lots more if its an exposed location Now if the channels are on 68E then the satellite is only a few degrees above the eastern horizon do you have a COMPLETELY unobstructed view out to a flat horizon out east / south east? If there are any houses / apartments in that direction - forget it If there are any hills - forget it If there are any trees near the property - forget it if you live in an apartment complex or similar then you are going to have to get permission from the management organisation [/QUOTE]
