Sorry if this has been raised before and I know the ultimate answer depends entirely on what I need and want but I'm looking for some general help.
I'm new to the sat scene so take it easy. I've gone and purchased a dm800hd clone which I've had now for some 2 months.
Currently as I don't really have the knowledge I'm going to say I'm looking at getting only FTA channels and am interested in Football, Films and Documentaries.
I also have a problem in that my wife has poo-pooed the idea of having a dish at the front of the house so it has to be mounted at the rear, not ideal as you'll see from the attached pics. My house is the 1 on the left and the first pic is of 0.8w, the second is of 28.2e. I'm in NW London by the way.
What I'm unsure about is how high would the dish need to be to stop the roof blocking the signal, also if I did go motorised what's the smallest dish I could get away with? I'm looking for advice on what dish and make I should buy.
