Nigel, Years ago when I fitted satellite systems BSB (NOT BskyB as it became after sky bought out BSB)  used flate plate antennas and all LNB's had a screw inside which could be turned to adust the frequency range. Turning it allowed the french channels to be received from the french Telecom satellite and also allowed news feeds to be received which were normally outside the range of received channels. Is this still the case?Flat plate antennas still available. can you tell us which size is needed so we can  use smaller antenna than these huge monster size dishes you say are needed?
