Hi rolfw, Thank you for the explanation. Regards, Harper.

Hi rolfw, Thanks for your response. The link I mentioned in my post works for me and takes me to a thread entitled: Article: One in Ten British Neighbourhoods Suffers from Slow Broadband Speeds however when I click on the link posted in the first post of that thread, it takes me to: Not Found...

I've just noticed that in every post in every thread I look at, the words "the" and "for" and highlighted in yellow but not in the title. Is it just me or has anyone else noticed this? Regards, Harper. P.S. I restarted the browser and the problem has gone.

I've had a similar problem for the last couple of days. The bookmark I've used for years took me to Sats.co.uk home page which states: Not Found Apologies, but the page you requested could not be found. Perhaps searching will help followed by a search box however, I created a new bookmark...

With the dish pointing at Astra2, the installer told me that the signal wasn't as strong as it should be. He rotated the LNB which increased the signal and solved the problem. He said he didn't think the wind could have caused the problem so the only other thing that I can think of that could...

I'll do that and let you know what I'm told. Thanks to everyone who's offered help and advice. Regards, Harper.

The most precise alignment I can get is by going to Menu>Program Satellites in the Echostar and using a transponder with a strong signal strength and quality on each satellite to find the optimum position. The Echostar, polar mount and jack were fitted by a satellite installer and I've had no...

On Astra1: 10788V is good and 10876V is alright. Euronews on 12226H is alright and has a lower signal strength and quality, (about 50%) than BBC World 11597V which is pixellating. 10979V has good signal strength and quality but is encrypted so I can't tell what it's like to watch. 10744H...

If I check the signal strength and quality on other low frequencies, (if there are any) should they be on the same satellite or would any satellite do? Regards, Harper.

It's a motorised dish and the lnb is a twin universal. Regards, Harper.

10714H is alright although the signal strength and quality are not as high as 11681V. Regards, Harper.

I am in NE England and have a 1m dish. Tonight, I noticed the low signal strength and signal quality on many of the Freesat transponders on 28degE, especially 10818V. It is so poor that the channels on that transponder are unwatchable. There are other FTA channels, eg NHK World TV and Al Jazeera...

Thank you for that. I'll make a note of the address and telephone number in case the receiver develops a fault that is in another part of the receiver from the power supply in the future. Regards, Harper.

Followup to say thank you to Llew for repairing the power supply and returning it to me. It's back in the receiver now which is working fine. Once again, many thanks Llew. Regards, Harper.

Thank you for the offer. I'll send you a PM to make arrangements. Regards, Harper.
