Hello skunkers, A quick one to the satellite savvy. Who knows how / has ever Connected to the above mentioned sattelites from Kenya. I know they are directly atop the UK, but i really need to know if in any of the bands, and with any sized dish it is possible to pick any meaningful beam from them... - sent from my faiba. -- *“The twentieth century has been characterized by three developments of great political importance: the growth of democracy, the growth of corporate power, and the growth of corporate propaganda as a means of protecting corporate power against democracy”*

Btw, Am willing to setup my dreambox as server so that other boxes can pick signals from me then we contribute to the payment for the service. I need a critical number so if interested and have a dreambox, holla then we see how to move on. Btw, I think I have an extra dreambox so if anyone interested, hit me up (I just have to look for it and since am moving apartments in Jan, am sure I will find it :-) ) - all I ask is what I paid for it 300USD ./Ok3ch On Fri, Dec 28, 2012 at 1:44 PM, skunk me <skunksme@gmail.com> wrote:

Collins, The footprint covers Europe and part North Africa. I dont think you will get side lobes...side lobes and null positions are less predictable.. http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/EUTELSAT-28A-coverage.html# ** On Thu, Dec 27, 2012 at 8:23 PM, Areba Collins [ @BrainiacKE ® ] < arebacollins@gmail.com> wrote:
