Thanks. We've adjusted the angle to get the best signal and we're pretty sure we are pointing at 28.2 degrees east, but still not getting BBC (except for BBC World news) or any freesat channels etc, but getting loads more German channels. In the options, it isn't possible to select Astra 2D separately, I have to select 'Astra 2A, 2B and 2D' - are these separate satellites, or all the same? Alos, can a free to air satellite receiver actually receive freesat signals on a blind scan? Hi
Thanks for your advice. I've been using a compass at 28.2 degrees east of south to align the angle of the dish. As for the elevation, I've been using the markings on the dish at about 22 degrees elevation. Is this where I'm getting confused, should this be at 28.2 degrees? I have tried the dish is lots of different angles, but obviuosly I'm missing the spot.
Thanks again Hi
It's all working perfectly now - thanks for all your help.
