Well the ASTRA 2 satellite is located 23 degrees east of south, so work it out from that. :)

You can tell him if you like. I can't remember myself, but I think that I guessed a semi-outlying station.

What is a "semi-outlying" station, and how does Dagenham Heathway qualify as one? I would have thought its position relative to Upminster (the most outlying station) would make it "outlying".

Well it looks like I really had forgotten what I had guessed! Still, I don't know. Dagenham isn't that far out, really. I'd say the fully outlying ones are the ones past Dagenham East - that is, Elm Park and onwards.

Drat! Went through Queensbury as one of my options in my head and then discarded it as I thought it can't be that....
