Welcome to the forum sdavies182 You are lucky to be getting what you are with such a small dish... unfortunately in this case bigger is better

My System: Pace Sky plus box with 93 cm dish | Thanks for the advice being technical from my mother's side of the family why can I get some channels and not others when essentially they are being beamed from the same Sat ? I would have thought it would have been a case of all or nothing | ||

None of this makes the slightest difference to north western Europe but can affect the extreme fringe viewers.

My System: Various digiboxes, broken Nokia 9800S, numerous analogue boxes. My lovely little lappy, HP Omnibook 6100 | And don't forget that it's not one satellite, there're 4 up there transmiting (plus a fifth waiting to go). The 2A and 2B satellites have north and south beams, Eurobird has fixed and steerable beams and 2D is just damned tight in its beam. Then there is the variation between the horizontal and vertical polarities. Is it any wonder it's all so variable?
