A 1.2m will get you the vertical transpnders a bit more reliably, and a 1.8m, the horizontal transponders also(with not much rain margin).Knowing what channels you want is  very important, i.e whether they are on H or V tranponders. Check lyngsat.comAlso you need to make sure that a larger dish eg 1.8m can be accommodated.A 1m setup would be of relatively low cost, a 1.2 a bit more, a 1.8m would be costly for most pockets.</blockquote>
