    Motorised satellite dish help

    Hello I am looking for some help & advice I am moving to the postcode below, I have a duo 4k with x2 twin tuners and a h7s, I am wondering what size motorised dish I would need to pick up Intelsat 34 55.5w Eutelsat 10A & 7A & astra 2 28.2e

    I like Wrestling and like feed hunting but I use Astra 2 for freesat. I currently use a dish fixed too freesat 6 cables coming off the dish 4 in my duo 4k and 2 in my h7s.

    I Would just like some advice on how to get started and whether i would need a diSEqC switch or just 6 cables coming off the dish and then just move the dish to where it needs to be through the receivers.

    The postcode is DL17 0QJ

    many thanks.

    Intelsat 34 is C band so forget that one unless you want to get an extra dish for that bird. A 1m dish should be big enough for the rest.
