im interested in getting a motorised dish had enough of me fixed one lol.
I have seen a 95cm and a 80cm one complete with all the stuff.
Iwould like to know what extra sats or transponders could i receive with the 95cm one.
Im in the Es*** area.

saw this elsewhere

you should get 28e , 19e , 13e , 10e , 1w , 4w , 15w , 30w

you might get some channels on these too 42e , 26e , 23e , 16e , 5e

and maybe the odd channel from the rest

Depends upon your line of sight. When I was running an 85cm I could receive from 42 east to 58 west, then changed to a 1m. Same sats received but better reception from the likes of arabsat(badr) and Amos and Nilesat.

All I can say is that when running my 85cm dish, a Golden Interstar 0.3dB lnb and a Technomate receiver. I had good reception on the Vertical transponders off of Nilesat. Good weather was needed, better reception in frosty cold winter nights and clear summer nights. No chance of anything from the Horizontal transponders though, you would need a 1.2m dish or perhaps even larger.
You realise of course that the Showtime transponders are encrypted in Irdeto2.
Dull grey sky at present but clear reception of 11862V and11977V.
