Which Dish do I Need?

Opensky on W3 at 7°E

Opensky ceased service on Eurobird at 33E in May 2008. Opensky is now available from W3A at 7°E.

The footprint delivers 48dBw across Europe including UK and this requires an 80cm minimum. Results can be variable depending on manufacturer and we recommend the Triax TD78. Your installer will need to review the technical information page. Satellite details are here.
