motorished dish

[digicon]

i dont really know whichs ones as ive said some before on this thread i cant get them
what about these -

astra 4a 4.8e
eutelatsat 16.0e
hotbird 9 13.0e
nilesat 101 7.0 w

looking for all 3pm epl channels

For 4.8 and i presume you mean Viasat for reliable reception and to allow for some rain fade margin you will need at least a 1m, I have picked this up on 80cm but in heavy rainfall and especially here in the UK a 1m is advisable.

16e you can pick up on a 60cm and 13e all you need is an old sky dish but remember to factor in for rain fade margin.

7w not a chance in daylight your looking at a 2.4m + dish size for reliable daytime viewing, At night the Horizontal TP's will just about become visible on a 1m+ dish but obviously no good for your 3pm's.

Conclusion : Get a 1m minimum with an Inverto Black Ultra

too cheap

i have been quote ?50 from someone in my area to install a motorished dish
he said that he will align to the thor sat then others will fall into place
i would like either hotbird 9, badr 6 or nilesat 6 will these work once he has aligned it to the thor sat
thanks

ive set up a few of these and 50 quid is way too cheap. id want that just for lining it up. dont pay him untill u see it moving and getting a good signal from the satellites u want to hit

Forget about Nilesat on an 80cm you will need the 1m and above, The triax 1.1m is a very good dish but also very heavy at the same time, It really is pushing any diseqc motor hanging one of these on it.

If you can source the Gibertini 1m Aluminium dish do so its slightly dearer but is half the weight so not as much strain on the motor.

got dish installed got viasat sports channels along with other epl sports channels
when he was installing it he never used a sat metre just moved dish unit it got signal was abit annoyed by the way he did that
he did how ever give me a package which last for 3 months then can buy for ?10 each month

you will know if he did a good job when you get heavy rainfall... you can align a motorised dish this way but for the weaker, out of footprint birds you really need a meter/spectrum analyser to peak the signal imho. regards mdt
