Unfortunately I'm on the phone to the manufacturers as it hadn't survived the journey down from Tuzla

Setting up a BBC News satellite dish in Vitez. Looks like the team arrived that day. Once everything's working the boxes will be tidied away as much as possible. Steve Hughes of BBC News's Location Facilities team is on the phone to London, probably as he tests the TV dish. While these days you can send TV reports home with much smaller kit, if you want to broadcast live in studio quality you will still need something nearly as bulky as this. So the equipment hasn't all shrunk as much as we would like, not yet. At least the phones are now a reasonable size.
