[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 806112, member: 187442"] I always advise that first you decide where you need to site your dish, I prefer a motorized system, as this allows you to view all the satellites available, providing a greater choice of channels for viewing. In most of the UK you are allowed, to install, up to a 1 Metre dish without the need to apply for planning permission, but there are a few restrictions, for listed buildings etc. If you're lucky, and have an open, south facing, rear garden, then a ground mounted system is install, and maintain. If you need to install it on the front of the property then you might want to go for something amaller, like a penta 85cm dish. Many of us change/add satellite receivers, over the years, but tend to stick with the same dish/motor. Check out the dishpointer application, type in your postcode, select your nearest true south satellite, which is your longitude reading, - readings = West, other readings are East, I think Cornwall is about 5W. Zoom in on the map, locate your property, and work out where you need to site the dish, preferably to get as much of the satellite arc as possible, at least 42E to 30W.
