[QUOTE="compufunk, post: 587041, member: 288741"] Your reference satellite (highest in the arc) will vary depending on which side of the country you are, 5W being best for the east, Belfast, Dublin, Waterford etc, and 8W for anywhere 50ish or so miles west of that. So for most of the island 8W is best,. A H-H motor will add 8-10" more clearance from the mounting point than you would have with just the dish on its own, so you may find that you can get slightly further than 11W with the extra clearance, also this will help with roof overhang clearance. Your roof overhang should not be a problem unless its really large. In the attached photo my dish is pointing 43W and the overhang is not a problem (you cant really see the overhang properly from the angle of the picture.) [/QUOTE]
