Would a 80cm dish receive all channels on Turksat 2A/3A 42E in Midlands, Thanks.

Thanks for replies, Looks like 1m dish should receive all channels from 2A and 3A for midlands.

It can be a bit confusing. There are three satellites. Turksat 4A took over a lot of channels a while back. 2A is almost empty now.

Each of them has an East and a West beam. Click on the links for each of them on Lyngsat, to see which transponders are which. You won't be able to receive any of the East beams, regardless of dish size.

hi,
I just wanted to say I have turksat setup from 1.1 metre works grand from eastcoast, but inlands I say you may go for 120cm just incase
btwn you won't have channels like ATV-SHOW TV-Kanal D-STAR- and few others - only EU channels are working on that sat
