I happen to live about 30 minutes by car from the venue, so I'd be happy to turn up with my three Starlink terminals, plus whatever random stuff my wife would be happy to see me to remove from the house (even if temporarily!).
Shall I ping Ilario directly or can you make an introduction?
Best,
Mike
