Thanks for the useful information. Does that mean that even though I am getting all Eurobird channels I am not on Eurobird but Astra one. Astra 1 only ofers a few channels. and I used a compass to find the correct bearing. Sorry if I am not explaining this very well!
Thanks again

Standing behind the dish, you need to move the dish about 1 inch to the left. For the moment you can leave the elevation as it is; when you move the dish to the left and get Astra 2 definitely, you can then adjust the elevation for optimal signal quality.
PS ignore that your receiver currently suggests that you are on Astra2/Eurobird 1; this occurs because different satellites use similar/identical frequencies. As they say, seeing is believing and only when your receiver shows Astra 2 channels (as in the link in the list below) should you believe it.
