My System: motorised dish and technomate receiver | Astra 1 is at 19 east Astra 2 is at 28 east. That is in round figures. So turn your dish 9 degrees or so east and down a bit as Robbo mentioned. Or if you are confused, to the left if you are behind the dish. "J" | ||

Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT | Also, while doing so, have sight of the signal quaility screen on your receiver and monitor a transponder, eg 10773H. When you get good quality, scan it. You should get BBC1 London. | ||
