[QUOTE="dave branson, post: 128161, member: 176076"] To be quite honest,i really dont know after the change from Astra 2a to 2d by the BBC,i asked a local dealer to install a 2 meter dish,it actually measures 1.954cm,so i natually assumed it to be a 2m dish,only after it was installed and by gaining knowledge on the net,i realised it was a 1.8,the dealer used a footprint of 2d,which indicated 1.8 for this part of Italy,(50klms south of Florence) in Pisa ect,and North of Florence you can receive BBC on a 1.5 dish, so i was not concerned too much,as i could get it 95% of the time. It was about 1 year ago the Satellite relocated its position,so at the moment its ok from early morning till early evening,picture quality during this period is 50-55%,after about 21-00 using the Invacom it breaks up on all transponders. With the Smart,the last couple of evenings about 19-00 it starts to go. Most likely a bigger dish would do the trick,but the cost is restrictive to replace the existing dish. [/QUOTE]
