Just wandering if any one can receive Pas 10 in the eastern states please and if so location dish size etc.
Thanks Marty
Hey Marty
Speak to SAX0607 on Vetrun. He manages to get it from South East Melbourne. Check The PAS10 Thread on Vetrun.
Cheers

Hi
I believe you can get C band on a 1.8m but most would say you need a 2.3m dish.
Cheers
the elevation angle would be very low... check it what it is for your location.
Yes I shall check out the elevation .
Thanks All
depends on how close to the coast you are too, the footprint doesn't really extend all the way.
marty 17,
I guess we are talking about IS10
Basically no way in Eastern States. Barely over the horizon @ 68.5 degrees east.
Unless you have flat terrain to your west, a big dish, 3.0M at least, plus the dish will be nearly straight up and down to put it simply. A lot of terrestrial noise will affect reception,
Cheers
OK in the Eastern states exactly where are you?
My sister lives in Canberra but I stream DSTV and Thai Truevisions to her.
Not in Sydney as it's over the horizon.
Streaming not for the feint hearted costs of bt and although I have no bandwidth caps my sister does.
In the old archives here was the tale of someone who managed to pick it up from Melbourne where it is about 3 or 4 degrees above the horizon. Lucky bastard (although Melbourne is very flat to the west, so if you are on a bit of a hill or a tall building, i can see how it might be doable). But it is below the horizon any further east than that.
From memory, i know people who have had trouble getting it in Adelaide due to the low angle.

Hi guys
I get Pas10 in Melbourne. I have clear sight West with nothing in the way. I have a 2.3M dish. I get a good lock on some tranponders such as 3744H, the multichoice package, 4087H, and few more mostly on the Horizantal once. On a clear day i can get most of the Vertical signals.
I guess with 3M i should get a good lock on all the channels.
