[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 731767, member: 325666"] Not sure if this information will be useful to you ..but.. I receive signals in C band on my 1.8m prime focus from 58 West ... which is a similar elevation to your target of 57 East ... I'm located in near Manchester which is on average : - Approximately 125 metres above sea level Luckilly I have relatively clear line of sight ....but I have noticed that the longer wavelengths involved in C band reception will penetrate ...to some degree.....a thin low density bush or tree .... The leaves present less of a problem in C band than KU .. but a solid object such as a wall or building .... ..no chance .. Dishpointer is definately your friend in this instance as you can factor in objects which might spoil your line of sight .. My 1.8m dish is mounted with a pole of 1.9m rgds VS [/QUOTE]
