[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 884003, member: 323322"] Well, certainly there are variations in signal strength during each 24 hour period and it also seems that Channels of one polarisation can suffer relative to Channels of the opposite polarisation but, if your Dish is big enough and is properly adjusted, then that need not affect your reception. However as Regional variants do indeed vary in polarisation, if your dish is less than optimal it's possible your favoured Region could drop out for a while. The best thing to do is experiment when you get there: Start off with your favoured Postcode and if all is well, then fine. If not, try a Postcode that pertains to Regional variants of the opposite polarisation. But remember that all BBC Regional variants are listed anyway on the Freesat EPG and also you can Customise which BBC Region appears on 101, regardless of the applied Postcode. The latter does not apply to ITV, though. [/QUOTE]
