Dish size for Thor 6

[centaur]

Might be a good idea to let us know what strength signal you have and what part of the country (uk) to see how far the footprint covers

Only a single TP active at the moment (10841H) according to KOS, on the K1 beam. Nothing here in SW UK with 1m dish.

Yes its very important to only do a test on this freqency!

As mrbleu stated its the only 1 from thor 6 at the moment.

Should show DVB sub test and the 7 danish tv2 regional channels ( 8 ) channels in total.

The problem with giving signal % readings is that this varies markedly between receivers.

A dB reading would be more useful.

[Giga]

not all user have a Satellite Signal Level Meter. If the receiver is capable of measuring/showing this dB, you still have the same problem: it would be an interpretation/estimation of that model, none of these are calibrated.

[raul]

south central europe , HD channels had 100% signal thus far , afraid this will change drasticaly when they move to thor6 , got about 8db on the current transponder .

you guys in england should not notice much of a change though .
