Dish TV -NSS 6 Dish Size

[aamir007]

Hi

I've got a relative in Barcelona and they have a dish tv satellite box that they'd like to use which is on 95.0 E and i used dish pointer to see in which direction they have to point it, but what i would like to know is what size dish would they need to receive the channels and is it even possible to receive them.


Thanks

its 95% chance that your friend cant recieve this sat although footprint mapes are not always 100% accurate but if its possible at a guess id say in the region of maybe 2.4m. a local installer in barcelona could give your friend more accurate info. regards mdt

i would say around 3.0 m so a bloody big one in reply to your question

Thanks i knew it would be difficult to receive it. 2.5-3.0m dish is massive i doubt they'd even be able to put one up.

insane relatives mate. too much work and hassle to setup and they'll probably spend years nudging the dish a bit to the left, up, down, diagonal and right, but it may be possible as the others have said. You Just need pin point accuracy and 3m+ dish which can be very expensive.
