    It's the larger 'zone 2' minidish which is used here and in parts of Scotland. I'm guessing it must be 60cm across?

    HTH,

    I've noticed the small dishes around Holy head.
    Theres been a few of the tiny ones installed near me also-no complaints,I believe.
    would it have anything to do with the fact that at 800 feet above sealevel,we are nearer to the sattelite:D :D:D

    I think the larger ones are 55cm and the smaller are 45cm.
    Don't go near the smaller ones... They may work ok in good weather but are much more prone to break up during heavy rain than the 55cms as I have seen.
