      here are the footprint maps for all 3 birds which show a 50DB downlink level in your area which means a 60cm dish is large enough with a slight weather margin although personally id go with a larger dish if possible to cover very heavy rain storms as you could get problems with a few of the weaker split txp,s on there,regards mdt

      Ku band (Universal LNB with noise figure of 0.7dB). 50dbw = 60cm


      regards mdt

                  Hi mate, would be very interested to know what bracket you used that fitted the arm on the skydish, and what lnbs worked best for you?

                  cheers

                  *Edit*

                  I've had a rampage around google, has anyone tried Inverto multiconnect lnb kit? Its looks very neat and says it fits any dish model. But pricey!
