Hi Bradyfield, I also have a motorised dish and I also leave in Birmingham, The quality on all the channels on my spiderbox are recording around 58% on a 1m dish, So you should be fine.

Interesting, When I required about the price of the Viasat card and receiver the price was around £1200, Now the same company's are quoting almost £2000, A complete rip off i think the dealers are making a killing here because they know the pubs will buy them and it will still work out cheaper...

Hi mate - are you picking up the channels on nilesat 201, Is it on your 1.5m and where are you based, Many thanks for your reply.

OK i might need to think about getting viasat Sweeden, Any idea of who are reputable dealers that will sell card and receiver, Probably cheaper option than trying to keep chasing fringe reception satellites like Nilesat, I could go out and spend over 2k for a 3.7m and i still would not know if i...

Hi Lyngsat have Nilsat 201 12092v 27500 & 12111h 27500, Are you saying that they are not transmitting yet on those transponders.

Yes it looks like i might need to invest in a 3m/ 3.7 m dish, I have tried to move my dish around to 26 east and i have no signal at all from this bird, The problem i have is that i have 30 foot oak trees in the back of the garden and the dish is going straight through the middle of it, I dont...

Question for the guy's in the UK - what kind of signal's are you getting from Nilesat 201 12092 v 27500 & 12111h 27500 , I have swung my 2.4 channel master round and i am getting no signal at all from this, I am based in Birmingham and used to get Showtime 24/7 and only would loose picture in...

Hi I live in Birmingham I used to get most of the Horizontal beams for Showtime on a 2.4 Channels master 24/7 However when it used to rain heavy I would get picture break up, As mentioned by other members it might be wise to wait to see what kind of signal 201 produces.

Ok Thanks mate.

Hi Guy's, The English premier league that they showed this weekend was any of the games have english commentary? Thank you.

Hi Wod, The only transponders that i scanned were the following 12054v 11862v 12456h & 12399v ( Both of these were HD no signal ) 11977v & 11747 yes the level was around 97% for those and the quality was 84% to 88% on a technomate 1500ci, I have now swung the dish back over to Nilesat so i can...

OK thanks for that.

Guys I would be grateful if somebody would advise me about Viasat Sweeden at 4.8e. I have swung my 2.4 channel master around and have picked up the following channels TV6, Viasat Football, Viasat Football Sweeden, Viasat Sport Extra 1& 2 Level 97% Quality 88%, However when i try and manual...

Thank you guy's here is the latest foot print for Nilesat 201. Satellite Launch Charts: LAUNCHES IN 2010

Hi guys, With the launch of nilesat 201 this evening, I was wondering if anybody would be able to explain the difference in footprints. I have found the following footprints nilesat 101 has a EIRP contour ( dbw ) of 47.1 to 50.1, whilst nilesat 201 has 45-49 & 50-52 dbw, Does this indicate...
