Where are you located?

If your outside of the Astra 2D footprint (ie Spain), it is very common to lose many of the channels in the afternoon and evening.

The reason for this is - there is a problem with one of the solar panel mechanisms, the satellite needs to tilt slightly to catch the sun, so the footprint moves slightly too! this problem will only bother you if your on the edge of the footprint or if your dish is not correctly aligned.
