What size dish woud be require to receive German satellite TV channels in the London/South East area please?
I understand that the majority of these are on Astra 19.2E, but would a standard minidish be adequate, or will it require a 60cm dish?

You will get Astra 19 or Hotbird on a Zone 1 mini dish on a normal cable run, if that's all you have, obviously you may suffer more breakup in inclement weather than a 60cm, if you are fitting one due to aesthetics then go for a zone 2.
Personally I would fit a 60 with dual horn and get both.0 -
Yes, a 60cm dish with two LNBs is a popular solution for people wanting Formula One.0
