About a 6 months ago until now i have had problems with getting back the BBC channels on Astra 28 east. It used to be fine and could get all BBC channel, Extreme sports and more, but now they've all been gone and since then i couldn't get it back. I use the frequency of : 10773 H 22000 Help please since i need the BBC and sports channels and channels for the kids too. Thanks and Merry Christmas http://www.satellites.co.uk/satellit...1&d=1133427373 | ||

My System: 3.1m Famaval on 28.2, 1.5m offset on 19.2e, 13e & 7e all mixed in a spaghetti of wires and going into a dream thingy. |
First reboot the receiver to see if that cures the fault. Next try a different frequency such as 10788 v 22000 or any other at http://www.lyngsat.com/astra2d.html Can you test individual frequency signal strengths on this receiver? Cheers Nick | |||

My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 5 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/13E/16E /19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S ![]() The last noble sat warrior to fly the olden flag of Analogue | If you are getting the taquilla channels then your dish is pointing at 19E not 28E

It will tide you over for now. this is a good howto for motors: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBErZGBb2Fo Nick | |||

My System: TM6800HD+TD110+StabHH90 motor,TM1000D+Orbital 1m Multifeed 16E,23E,28E.DigitAlB movies. A Bigsat BS-S77CX and a Sky Dodgibox. | Hi, If it is a motorised dish, you will have to send the dish to the satellites at 28E, and if you get a good signal, do a scan. If you can't, then you are not tracking the arc and the dish/motor needs setting up properly. As a quick fix, you could send the dish to 28E, and then go outside and adjust the dish to get a signal on 28E. Then when you have time, go and set the whole system up properly. Robbo | ||
