Intelsat 701

I am located in Melbourne and was wondering what size dish I would need to received I701. I have Asiasat 3 on my 2.3m mesh and get the F1's which is great, but have a 90cm dish also pointed at C1. Would this 90cm work for I701 or would I need bigger? Thanks.

I'm in Geelong and can get 701 on a Cm but it will drop out in the rain so i went for a 1.2M

Cheers -AAPT-

also in melbourne running a 90cm solid off-set dish with zinwell lnb ... no drop outs whatsoever even during rain ...

for i701 ku band :
approx. 50-52% signal quality on humax during normal conditions ...
approx. 21% signal quality during heavy rain ....

cheers
