My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/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

Hi Andy, welcome to the forum. The dish needs to be *accurately* aligned - to within a couple of degrees in all directions."Nearly there" isnt close enough...

Dont give up though - it may be frustrating to begin with, but you will get there eventually.
