[QUOTE="geoffreys, post: 24214, member: 176167"] Well over the recent weeks a general picture of what size dish is required at different locations on the Island has emerged. As you know I reside on the east side (Vrysoulles, Famagusta District) and at least 3.7m dish is required to pull in signals from 2D. Even if a smaller, say 2.7m, dish could be made to work with very careful alignment, skew, etc, the reception can vary because the satellites move postion slightly all the time which might have no effect in (say) UK but has a drop-out effect in fringe-areas such as Cyprus. Anyway even a 2.7m dish is expensive here. I have decided to build my own prime-focus 4m dish, but would appreciate any advice on the best LNB to use. Geoff [/QUOTE]
