Hi guys, anyone could help me on what dish size i need for eutelsat 3c @ 3.1° from london?

Thanks in advance.

For reliable signal at least 1.1 meter
i use 1.2 meter Channel master dish without issues .
Good luck : )

thanks for the answer! im installing tomorrow a 1 meter unfortunately, you think it will be unable to get a feed from that?

I used to pick up some channel from this bird a couple of years ago, on a 1Mtr dish with an Inverto Black Gold Lnb.
in Dublin, so you should get some results, unfortunate my Stab Motor burned out and the replacement was thrown up
in a hurry, and needs resetting, and do not have a signal now to test. Wish you good luck.

According to the footprints of E-3B europe london and most of the Midlands are covered in the main footprint which specifies power at 49dbw and a dish size of around 60-65cm so i would imagine a 1m would suffice no problem

1M will be more than big enough, even an 80cm would still be ok apart from really bad weather.
