    Anyone know if this is possible ?
    I see one at 164E which seems impossible.
    I'm not even familiar with what is available in Oz.
    It's for a friend who is coming to IRL.

    TIA,
    HD

    164E is over the Horizon ……..:eek::eek:

    There is no satellite at that location ?:confused:
    Superbird B2 162E carries feeds for Japan and
    Intelsat 166E is for Asia –Pacific and Australia.

    No dish can see over the Horizon.
    So no Australian TV.:cool:

    See Lyngsat.com for info on all Satellites.

    Not a chance, no matter the size of dish

    You'd want to point the dish into a hole going through the centre of the Earth (approximately).

    I would think there would be too much signal loss...

    but only one way to find out , anyone got a really big drill ?
