there are only like 3 english chanels you can watch there. others are Ethiopian and Arabic. Found out it was better to aim at Eutelsat 7E there are a handful of english world news channels like DW, TRT World, France 24, Africa News, ChannelsTv, RT English, CGTN, CGTN Documentary plus like 3 Nigerian Movie Channels; Africa Unite, MEA, can,t remember the third one
So I do not think 57E is worth buying a new dish for. as all channels you"ll find there are already at 7E plus more

Whats on your other dishes?

Whats on your other dishes?

I was experimenting with the only 90cm dish I had. I have found that If I aim it at 7W or 8W, I can catch Aljazeera, Press TV, abu dhabi sports channels plus tonns of other arabic channels (around 1200) with an ordinary LNB. When I upgraded to inverto LNB on the 90cm dish I was able to get MBC 2 & Dubai One (24hrs movies & Series) plus CNN though very low quality.

I'll upgrade to 130cm offset dish and point it to 7/8W. With Inverto I will probably be able to get all the MBCs, Ajazeera, CNN, Dubai One. With the other 90cm pointed 7E, I'll keep RT, France 24, CGTN, DW, TRT etc plus those other Oga movie channels.

so the best combination for small dishes 65 - 130cm is 7E & 7/8W

This is 5e that is very close to 7e. There's really nothing to write home about 7e these days, since the malysia-ing of turkana sat.

It seems you have not tasted CNN from other sources if you are bashing that on 7w. Whats provided FTA i don't even find a need to bash because even providing a feed is expensive. If you get 7/8w the TRT on 8w is HD. Preferably i would advise you to get a 6ft dish its very flexible than 130cm.

I heard offsets are more superior to pf when it comes to Ku. They say 4ft offset is equivalent to 6ft pf
