[QUOTE="wolsty, post: 16412, member: 175166"] My existing dish is about 90 cms vertical x 80 cms horizontal. On my Hummy, signal strength for the strongest channels shows at about 40% and signal quality at about 30% even on a good day. The signal does vary quite a lot, so the picture is unstable. I'm over 5 degs W and nearly on the 50 deg N latitude, so I'm way off the Thor footprint. I've resigned myself to buying a new dish, but I'd be grateful for views on the optimum size under 1.2 metres (neither my motor nor my pocket will take anything larger) :) :) :) [/QUOTE]
