Anyway you like.
The dish on the other hand should face roughly S. You may not be allowed to put a dish on the front face however, either by the owners association or the local council. Some blocks have a communal areaon the roof for these installations, that's where my 1.9m dish ended up. I was still supposed to get the agreement of the other owners though.

UK TV is transmitted from the satellites located at 28 degrees east of south. So if you have a soth facing wall you should be OK.

On the topic of british tv, i was watching a programme called "A Place In Spain" but i cant find it on anymore. I know it was on a long time ago maybe sometime in 2004, but i saw it on Discovery Real Time (i think) a few days ago.

The top and bottom of this post, is im wondering if anybody knows when its on tv and if not, where i can find it on the net?
