I've just heard from someone who claims to know a thing or two about satellite installations that if you get four dishes pointing at the same satellite, they have the same effect as one bigger one.

I think it sounds like a load of boll*cks, but what do I know?!

If this crazy theory is in fact true, is there any way it can be applied to my situation?: I live way outside the Astra 2D footprint and only a 270cm or bigger would be enough. Any ideas what I may need? There's no way I could put such a big dish on my balcony, but I'm sure I could get away with several smaller ones!
