[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1103940, member: 176704"] As others have said (quite clearly!) a standard solid SKY Zone 2 and Visionware quad LNB will be more than adequate almost anywhere in the UK (and certainly in the Midlands) - there's absolutely no need to get a more expensive "round" 60cm dish & an Inverto LNB, AND it will probably be slightly more difficult/expensive to find an installer who will install the latter than a standard SKY dish. OTOH, a Zone 2 dish will gather more signal than a Zone 1 one, and, as such will provide rather more protection against signal dropout in very heavy rain (AKA "rain fade"), and the UK is getting more and more of that nowadays! That's why I fitted a Zone 2 dish for SKY here in London many years ago, and so we've only had a couple of instances of momentary "rain fade" (and those were in absolutely torrential rain!) since then.
