[QUOTE="Fisty McB, post: 929740, member: 389824"] The former E28A transmissions that have just jumped to 2F have at present a more rugged FEC of 2/3 compared to the normally 5/6 FEC of the rest of the UK spot beam transmissions on 2E & 2F. That likely explains why you're able to get a sniff of a signal there. As for the second part of your question, someone will likely know better than me. I'd make an assumption that a larger dish would get you a better "chance", but you might only be able to get reception when rain or snow isn't falling. [/QUOTE]
