[QUOTE="Fisty McB, post: 1118133, member: 389824"] One issue is that the "published" footprints of the specific Ka-Band spot beam that Saorsat broadcasts on has to my knowledge never been issued by either Eutelsat of Saorsat/2RN, therefore what actual dish size is needed in certain locations only seems to be available via local knowledge. I have a Saorsat-compatible Ka-Band LNB that I use the odd time for testing ATM and this time last year it was working fine on an offset position on an 80cm dish pointed at 13E here in County Tyrone, however this was before the most recent parameter changes which included the change in the FEC rate so I'm not sure how good it is now until I get it out again and measure it.
