Somewhere in England (possibly?)!
Looks a bit like some of the streets around here with dishes of all sizes all over the fronts and especially where there are shops with flats of some sort above them - where did you find that ?

Looks like they have no idea that Twin, Quad and Octo LNBs also exist. :D

That's true of a lot of people - often see 2-3 mini-dishes on a house of "multiple occupancy"

Haven't been around recently, I was on holiday in Spain for Easter, posting a few pictures taken from my recent visit.

View attachment 14999

The orange dish was in a holiday park, where the visitors from all round Europe mounted lots of different size dishes to anything that would hold them steady.

On the same site was the tiny black dish on the roof of a caravan.

The one on the balcony must lose some signal from the bars?

My family think I'm nuts going round taking pictures of satellite dishes on holiday - I think they're right!

If anyone collects any more feel free to add them...
Interesting and look how many scruffy ones there are. Is the last photo a Spot The Dish and win a prize.
I am off to Najac this summer, must see if there any French sat dishes to photo.

So, WHAT was found as I/we (?) can't see any link?
The farm, as pictured, I would think... but it looks more like a show-case installation, rather than a working set-up.
Although the resolution is quite low, it looks like a temporary structure placed on a lawn...

@st1
I can't see any sort of link to whatever you obviously can see, apart from the shot in post #661 - is that what you referred to?

There's "dedication to the cause" and then there's "fanaticism" - but he had better make sure none of the dishes are pointing East at low level or "someone on the other side of the border" might get more than a little suspicious and "interested"!
