there is a channel on Arabsat 26° East which shows FTA premiership games. i am wondering what size dish is required and how many here pick it up

the parameters are Digibox friendly and the channel is MBC2

footprint

we seem to be well covered by this satellite

I use a 80cm Dish to pick up this channel on saturdays

thanking you for the speedy reply. time to reallign the dish. where are you btw. west, east, north or south of the country

Southeast

The wife watches that channel, I think you are referring to Channel 2. We are 50km's north east of Antwerp. She watches on a 80cm dish but it dies if we get heavy rain.
Good channel for movies with arabic titles.

Yes MBC Channel 2 . Details of which game they are showing this weekend should be available tomorrow

not found it yet. the pissing rain might be a factor in that. i'll try again tomorrow

Mossy, I think you are also in Waterford. I am in the city and I had no luck with an 80cm. Let me know how you get on, and I may try again.

Leonard - I am from Waterford City too . I have found this channel
using a 80cm Dish . Possibly worth another go

Thanks for that I will try again over the next day or two. Out of interest what signal strength and quality are you getting. I will post my results if I get it.

Delboy79 · 07-11-2003 12:00pm

For Arabsat - Signal Strength and Quality are both around the 60 - 65% mark
