    south spain

    For Torrevieja, A 2.4mt is not big enough for all the channels all day and night especially when it’s raining. Have a look at http://www.ses-astra.com/satellites/footprints.shtml The only thing it doesn’t show are the side lobes that the lucky people in the Costa del Sol and Algarve use to bring...

    south spain

    With respect to the guys that have replied, from what I have seen reception in Torrevieja is not the same as Lleida or the costa del sol.

    Where to buy a dish in Madrid?

    I have had mixed results with 80cm dishes when using 13o/19o, the better quality dish being worse performer. If you use good LNBs it is OK in Madrid. Some channels drop out with bad whether.

    ASTRA 2D BBC & ITV RECEPTION

    The way they are transported plays a big factor. Pre Astra days in Spain most installs were 1.8-3mt. The metal dishes were often already warped when they were delivered.
