          there is no official dish-site for your region, sorry for,

          a friend of my sat-hunter-club tried it with 150 [!] cm dish ( near Berlin ) and got success only with the very best weather conditions,

          see also the official SES-Site --https://sat.ses.com/webservice/images/12494500
          and --http://www.ses.com/fleet-coverage

            Hi John,

            I live in a fringe area and I think that your best bet is to search around locally for other expats and find out what is available and if anyone can receive it.

            Remember that only a few miles distance can make things vary quite a bit.

            Oh the joy of being on the fringe

                nowadays one can watch all freeview uk channels plus more, outside britain with an android tv box ( xbmc media centre ) and which doesn't require any type of dish, just a reliable internet connection.even in dreamboxes and vu+ receivers there are special plugins ( like ts- panel ) where one can watch uk channels without any sub.
