[QUOTE="karism, post: 393445, member: 251660"] Normally the wind speed is below 20km/h here, and very rarely it goes above it. Yes, I stay in Pretoria. I live in a well populated neighborhood, flat on the ground. No hills for at least 50km towards North. As far as I remember, the closest transmitter is about 5km away, and that is for Cell phone transmission. There is no other Military, or Microwave towers nearby. The only thing that could create some interference, is the airport. The airport is some 3km away, and is of small nature, for smaller Twin engined planes. They operate on the FM band for communication.Hehe,I listen to them every other day. The nice thing about BADR is that the elevation angle is very high. (Close to 60 Deg) So the noise radiated from nearby trees, the ground or perhaps a roof is not really a problem.The closest object to the dish, will be the wall. It is roughly 1 meter below the dish. The roof is tile, and not steel/Zinc (thank goodness for that) Karis [/QUOTE]
