Default Some more for Bill ...

On Tuesday, July 6th, 2010 at 17:08:31h +0100, Terry Casey explained:

From a large scale map, the road is offset about 10 degrees east
of north, so it is pointing at something at around 10 degrees west


No clue as to the ethnicity of the residents?

If it was pointing at Atlantic Bird 3 at 5.0° West, the most probable
reason would be for the reception of FTA France Television, or the
encrypted Fransat or BIS services.

If it really is pointing more towards 10° West, then the most probable
reason would be for the reception of of Atlantic Bird 1 at 12.5°W

offering a whole plethora of FTA stations including Sport Italia,
Arabic stations, Balkan stations etc.

Or in between Telecom 2D & Atlantic Bird 2 at 8.0°W offering a few
FTA esoteric Arabic language stations.
