In south west UK I can pick up most from seasat to pas 3r, except arabsat and nilesat and the nordic channels on sirius. Yes, bbc and fta channels on 28.2e can be picked up easily.

I don't think Nilesat could be received by an antenna less than 3 meter.

You would need a big antenna for nilesat, I have trouble on a 4.5M

East Coast near Harwich/Felixstowe. Nilesat on 85cm and 98cm watchable duriung daytime if clearsky and sunny, first sign of precipitation Nilesat goes first then Arabsat. Clear sky at night Nilesat and Arabsat romp in, obviously slightly better on 98cm dish, Golden interstar 0.3dB lnb's, Coship CDVB2300A/Technomate 500DA/Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra receivers. Once again heavy cloud or signs of rain signal goes
