    if your on the east of this 44 dBW border a 0.90 m dish would do, the more to the west your located to more difficult it is, bigger dish, no reception at all?

    hmmmmmmmm

    must be something to to with beamwidth and amount of signal obtained from different dishes as i find them exactly colocated on my 1.2m dish,with no concievable improvement or loss by adjusting it a few clicks further west.Ian.
