Hi All,
I've stumbled upon this very nice option. Probably not the first but couldnt find related subjects here.

Equivalent to a dish but flat in shape and more elegant if you have conservative rules like where I live and installation of dish is not allowed.

Reviews comeup in the early top in google with no sponsored ads.

Much obliged if anyone can advise me on the following because I have failed to find it:

Will it serve as Nilesat/Arab Sat Dish?
All what I found was that it connects to hotbird and astra

Thanks

The flat plane antennas (there are several types) are normally claimed to be equivalent to a 60-70cm dish.

As long as the prescribed dish for your desired satellite is within the claimed size for your flat plane antenna it will be fine.

HOWEVER - flat plane antennas tend to be expensive as they are relatively low production runs and shipping to the Middle East from Europe is likley to be fairly expensive!
