        you will lose some transponders in the rain using a zone2 sly dish for 28.2e/19.2e/13e, can you not mount the dish at the back on a T+K,pole arrangment so you could use a 80cm.it requires more work and is a bit more expensive but if it cant be seen unless looked for you will keep the boss happy.regards mdt

                  Well its definitely there for the USB one as i just checked the Settings download and they have the V TP for Eutelsat 3D listed, You also have 10 pre-definable ones that you can add custom TP's yourself

                        Try looking at a wave frontier toroidal dish. I've had both the T90 and T50. Both worked well.
                        My master plan is to live forever..... going to plan so far
                        Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.
                        No good deed goes unpunished....
