Not much hope of getting Rotana package as this is on the very tight footprint on Badr-6

Hi friend ..
I've just looked at the footprints for various beams on Astra 28.2
If it is the Freesat channels you are trying to receive ..these are located on Astra 2D ..and use a spot beam centred directly over the UK ..
..This beam falls well short of your location ...though many beams from this orbital spot do illuminate Sweden ..
Go to lyngsat ..and check which channels you want to receive ..then open the corresponding footprint map (extreme right of the transponder info) to see if it is possible for you..
..you should for example ..be able to receive the BBC News transponder on the 2B South Beam 11954 H

How are you measuring the dish? Is it an offset dish? What LNB are you using? BTW you are closer to the beam centre than I am and I'm using a 1.5m. I'd guess you are right on the fringe of 1.2 reception though.
