Nilesat reception reports for UK

Hi this subject has been lightly touched on in the past, and information has been a bit fragmented and converse, but I would like to have a better idea of what reception is possible for Nilesat in the UK......

I have a motorised 1.2 metre prime focus dish with Technomate TM 5500 DAP CI Receiver & .3 dB LNB.... I receive all the sats one expects to receive in the UK except for Nilesat which gives me a slight rise in signal as I pass over its position but not enough to give any pictures...

I know my dish declination is very slightly off so I can expect a possible improvement after I’ve adjusted that.
But what sort of signal can I expect from my location in the Heart of England at 52.23 North 1.39 West... ??

If any of you guys can let me know what set-up you have, your approximate location and picture/signal strength (if any), I would be most grateful

Regards John
