Smallest dish receiving DigitAlb (since Jan 2010)?

    A question to those of you using DigitAlb for EPL.

    What is the smallest dish that can get DigitAlb Sports channels since Jan 2010?

    I'm a bit confused by the information I see on the coverage sites.

    It seems to me that if the channels are on SESAT E16 then you'd need a big (1.1M at least) dish, whereas if they are on Eurobird E16 then a minidish would probably do.

    I can't really tell from looking online.

    I don't use Digitalb anymore because the picture quality was so poor ... but when i did have it, initially 80cm dish was about the right dish size .. but again depends on your location .. would not think a mini dish would pick up much at all if anything ..

    I am receiving Digitalb with a 1.0 meter dish in Donegal. The sports channels come in good but since January I have not been able to receive hd1 hd2 hd3 and Nat Geo HD at all. As for the film channels some times they work sometimes they do not work.

    You are asking about Digitalb for the epl but Digitalb have lost their rights in Albania a company called Tring now have the Albanian rights to broadcast the epl this means the epl will not be on Digitalb for a t least 3 years.

    Without the epl Digitalb is no better than the Aljazeera card which only costs around €100 and carry almost the exact same competitions as dDgitalb do.

    88cm on 16e pulls it in no problem for me unless it absolute lashing it down....

    10e has never been a problem for me for the Supersport package since they began broadcasting on that
