[QUOTE="deepbluesky, post: 604786, member: 176074"] Ok, if UPC is expensive then you (or whoever decided to install the 2.2m) should have known before that Astra 3A won't be reveivable with this extremely small dish. I guess that even 5m would be too small for Cyprus since a 3.8m Patriot (professional dish) in Lamia (Central Greece) did receive it on the very limit. You have to deal with a very low powered spotbeam: [url]http://www.lyngsat-maps.com/maps/astra3a_h.html[/url] So to put the Skylink card into work, your only possibility is to turn the dish to 23.5E and receive just the Astra 1G frequencies. Later on next year Astra 3B might be available but this is now out of discussion. Consider that this won't be an easy job with a spectrum analyzer which a real professional always uses in such fringe reception conditions to get the maximum out of the dish. Be aware of that if the receiver is not capable in receiving HD transmissions you won't even see the green ones at _http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/skylink.html although the signal might be sufficient. These are the values for Larnaca aiming at 23.5E: _http://www.satlex.us/en/azel_calc-params.html?satlo=23.5&user_satlo=&user_satlo_dir=E&location=34.90%2C33.65&la=34.90&lo=33.65&country_code=cy&diam_w=75&diam_h=80 [/QUOTE]
