Robbo, hi

I'm in the process of trying to raise Badr at 25.5 and Eurobird 2 at 26e.
I had to manually add the 2 satellites and some transponders to my old Fortec star as the channel list was so old. Having done that I proceeded to tune my spare dish, 80cm, and as I am in south Italy, I should be well inside the footprint. It seems vey hard to get a good signal, and quite hard to find, too! Even with a tuning meter.
I finally got it, and scanned for transponders, with not much success to be honest. I seem unable to get the vertical TPs. It's a Galaxy uni LNB, a 2db one.
I'm keen to get Fox movies middle east, etc., needless to say FTA appeals greatly!
Any tips on getting them? Have I missed something?
Thanks in advance....

Have you looked at the footprint map? According to it you need bigger than 135cm.

Ah, I see! Thanks, I did actually raise a few channels, but none of the good ones! They must have been on the wide beam.
Looks like I need to source a bigger dish!
Anyone know of a reasonably priced 2m+ dish in my area? New or used, don't mind really.
Quoting from Robbo's first post,
"As already highlighted previously, easy pick up on 26E , 12168V, 27.5, 3/4

Has the beam changed since then? If you could raise it in SE UK on a decent 1m dish, I should be able to pee on those sats from here!

Unfortunately when I made the original post Fox movies was showing on badr4, but someone in their wisdom only left it up for a week, so all thats left is the original transponder that is on badr6.

As for dish size, 1.2m can't quite hack it here, but very almost. So here a 1.5m needed, as for Italy.????

Also on a Nilesat horizontal, of course, don't know if you would fair better with that.

According to the footprint map he should fair better with Nilesat. Nilesat is 47dBw at the toe of Italy while 26E is only 43dBw.
