[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 961041, member: 330868"] Glad to find this thread! We're potentially moving into a new build house, and written into the contract is that while the developers are still on-site (to sell the rest of the houses), satellite dishes are not permitted to be installed on the houses apart from an exception made for "Sky" minidishes. My current set-up is 28.2°E, 19.2°E, 13°E and 5°W. A 5°W dish could easily go in the back garden and see round the side of the house so that's where my 80cm will go (I need 80cm to get the multistream versions of TF1 HD, France 2 HD and M6 HD), pretty much hidden from view of the road. For the eastern sats, any dish will have to be on the front of the house so it looks like I'll get away with a Zone 2 on 19.2°E with offsets for 13°E and 28.2°E (Astra 1 and Astra 2 are most important to me and I'm not too fussed if some of the weakest DVB-S2 on Eutelsat 13 isn't totally rainproof as I don't use Bis for French TV any more which used to be the one that caused me the most grief on 11681!) Only got to cope with that for a year until the developers are gone and then I can do what I like so can always swap the minidish for something better if the signal needs to be better. :D Might get a Zone 2 and some fitting stuff over the next few weeks to have a go at getting it all working and ready for a speedy install if/when we move!
