Hello All, I am new here.

Sometime last year I found a site that indicated what Freeview Channels that could be recd in NZ with a given satellite aerial diameter. I cannot find it again. Does anyone know what I am talking about? PJ

standard 65cm satellite dish (same size sky uses) will do the job for picking up freeview (DVB-S)
Freeview HD is different as it transmits on UHF band, this system may need a different antenna size depending on what your reception is like.

I think you might mean Free to Air channels on Satellite?

A 76cm should be right for FTA K.U band stuff beam at NZ.

Except perhaps Asiasat4
