We have been looking at portable satellite systems where the dish is on a tripod. In particular the Quicksat QS65 and the vuesat model designed to easily tune in using Avtex tv. I’m struggling to find reviews online. Does anyone use either of these? Or another one that you can recommend? We liked the fact the above models seem compact and all in a bag. Would really appreciate some guidance, we are looking at UK and France use.

    Thanks for that tip, it seems they do have a larger model. I will see if anyone replies with experience of these particular brands to see if they are pleased with them (or not 🥺)

    We have the maxiview adjustable brilliant as above you will need a bigger dish for southern France or spain but people have said the standard dish supplied with the maxiview is ok for Northern france and Brittany

    We don't have either of the 2 models in the OP's post but we do have an 85cm dish on a tripod. Been using it for years with not issues, the TV we have is a Cello (similar to Avtex) has a built in free sat tuner so its just a case of setting up the dish and tripod to Astra 28.2, attach the cable to the tv and then tune the tv into Astra 28.2

    Works for us all over France and if you have a Sky+ box you will even get some of the channels just over the border into Spain, no BBC or ITV though,
