On a 80cm dish 52 east i could get about 32% with a lock. With the 1m dish, the signal is much stronger. Northern England.
How fare east can you go?
surley only someone in same area as you could answere everyone will be different in different areas.

In theory only, If I can get a 32% lock with an 80cm dish in Northern England and the op is further south than me and the signal is aimed and Morroco/Turkmenistan the signal should be better the further south you go.
From experience i would install 1.1
To 1.2 satellite dish Many times i have
Installed 80cm satellite dish Before you
Know it your back installing meter + satellite dish no mater how far south you are
Good l.n.b is also important and using W.F
100 good cable grade

On the Viark with the 1 meter dish i get 92% signal but that never seems to change and 79% Quality thats the important level on the Viark.
Im in the Leeds area.

Cheers for that mate, I'm prob about 100 miles south, and 20 miles west of you, so it hopefully shouldn't deviate too much from that for me.
Youll get even better results on a 1 meter.
Thanks, How far west can you go?
Apart from 30W, is there anything interesting and receivable?

I get 53e to 58w, there's nothing past 30w
52e has some decent FTA channels. I get around 70% SQ on most - 1m dish.
Varzesh 2, 3 & ASR TV show some premiership matches but the picture quality is not so good at times as it's mainly taken from the internet,
Varzesh 1 shows a lot of WWE.
RTA SPORTS shows cricket, with some live matches,
Sport 5 (Czech) is on 51.5e
Poker TV shows Poker & some snooker & pool, (nothing live)
2 music channels - Persian Billboard & Rebel,
Newly added TP (11221 V 27500) has FX HD & SCI FI HD
247Box TV shows films without ads, it's also on the new TP as 247Box
These are the main watchable channels, most have foreign ads during programs,

Thanks, I get 52e with 70% quality on 80 cm dish in west London area.
FTA seem to be decent at least for sports and movies.
My dish arc is slightly bigger, may be 65e to 80w but there is nothing much past 30w and 42e. I am new to motorised so still experimenting.

I need to run the cable about 4-5m across the garden. I was planning on putting it in some pvc conduit and placing that underneath some patio slabs. I’m going to dig a little trench so the pvc lays neatly underneath the slabs. There’s not much footfall over the slabs.
Would the W.F. 100 be suitable, or would I have to get some sort of armoured coaxial?
I would use W.F125 more suitable as
U/G cable You can buy the twin version
or single version Theres proper blue flexible
Duct you can buy which can be sealed to
Prevent water egrees
