    If you try and put a dish up to receive Showtime in Manchester I hope you've got a big garden........................... ....you'll need one for all those planes to land on because your dish will be sending out a loud enough signal to encourage them to land

    Seriously I think you will need over 2m dish in Manchester. Footprint is not aimed at UK.

    Yes at least 1.8m! you can get the fortec star 1.8 from m a p l i n s for 99 quid. You will get it on that.

    if showtime is on the H transponders then check with others in your area for dish size probably 2M+ the channel master 2.4M might be an option you will need a sub for this package go to your local sat dealer for advice

    I know some one in s.wales who is getting H and V with the 1.8m fortec star dish. Yes its a cheaply made dish, but as long as its assembled correctly, will performe well.
