You will need to compromise if you want both at the same time on a 150cm dish.
I find with a 150cm dish in London that if you use a 7w transponder to max your signal you get around 80% quality and only about 50% quality on 8w and if you use a 8W transponder to max your signal then I find you get...
Getting 7.6db in West London with a 1.5 M Dish.
5/6 FEC makes it a little harder to keep a good signal.
Not much rain fade headroom and the signal is a little stronger in the mornings.
Around 8.2db on a clear weather day.
I have used TBS6981 , TBS6922SE ,TBS6983, TBS6925 and the new TBS6522.
I would say the TBS6983 is the best one i have used for speed and fringe reception.
I can get a couple more transponders with a 1.5M in London.
11977H at 6.5db and 12053H at 6.4db.
These are the MENA beams I think and not the East beams.
Getting 11843V around 20.6db
locking NW Africa 11559V with 1.5M Gibby.
Only just with 5.7db. 5/6 makes it as little harder.
West London. Clear sky
Most the time just under lock in the daytime.
Hi garyG,
I get most H transponders 24/7 including the main showtime 11996H and 12073H transponder with a 1.3M eurostar dish in West london about 25 miles from you.(but in heavy rain and i lose most H tranponders)
A good lnb is the key and mm perfect setup of the dish.
I use sharp Lnb's.

The change to the FEC has made it much harder to receive fox movies.
It is now Weaker than 11804H.
The picture lock for 17766H is 49% on a TM 6800 but since the change it is now 55% for a lock.:-Nooo
I have some tips for nilesat H transponders.
Try changing the S/R to 27499. I have done a few blind scans and some H transponders show 27499 instead of 27500.
Also i find dropping the frequency by 1 or 2 helps(some some lnbs can have some frequency drift + or - 1 or 2)
or this could be...
Hi all
i have to agree with you all that the last few days the H transponders have been v strong.
I can even get 11804H at 9pm.(this transponder is super weak):)
Hi all
I have to report that i have lost all the transponders from the switch over.
I used to get about 5 Transponders from the old AB4 but not a thing from the new ab4a.
on Transponder 12341v i had 24/7 reception (with no rain) but nothing now.:mad:
1.3M dish , sharp Lnb and ct165 cable.
