Hi, guys!

 

I am thinking of buying a sports package sub (Nilesat or HB smaller one), if I can get these jolly channels in northern Italy, with T90 dish...

 

But I can't seem to get any of them, even though I thought I had them, at some point...

 

Is my memory failing me, would anyone confirm/deny, please...

 

P.S. Which CAS to avoid for "our" purposes, please?

My location is 38.5N, 0.5W. T90 centred on 9E. No problems receiving from 7W.

...or Badr 26E, maybe?

 

BADR 26 degrees east footprints.

aljazeera_button.JPG Aljazeera Sports is broadcast on Badr 6 Ku Band BSS, it is also receivable via hotbird, or Nilesat/Atlantic Bird4A
Recommended dish sizes are for the maps below  A: 70cm  B:  90cm  C: 1.20m  D: 1.60m

For the other channels and subscription or FTA packages on BADR you may need a different size of dish depending on where you are located information suggested in forums, would indicate that a 2.4m dish or larger is needed for Southern UK. abudhabi_sports_button.JPG ADMC Abu Dhabi Sports is also broadcast on BADR 6 Ku Band BSS, free to air channels on the same satellite include fox movies and fox series.  
BADR 6  official footprint for 26 degrees east
(use this for sizing dishes for ADMC Sports viewing and Al Jazeera)
 
badr6bss2.jpg
  BONUS INFORMATION FOR RECEPTION OF MANY FREE TO AIR CHANNELS   There is a reasonable amount of good quality FTA channels available for English Speakers, who dont mind slightly older programming content, and arabic subtitles, this is also good for people who are on holiday with a small dish available in the Meditarranean.


BADR 4 KU Band 26 degrees East footprint.


DO NOT USE THE BADR 4 FOOTPRINT FOR SIZING ADMC OR ALJAZEERA RECEPTION DISHES
THIS FOOTPRINT IS FOR BADR 4 and suitable for other free channels such as MBC, etc.
for dual English Arab Channels free to air.
