Really the point I was getting at is can he not see the Poland beam, not because the signal is low, but because it is HD?

As for the Germany beam on 3A, and the Nordic beam on 1 west, both those birds are low power Boeing spinners with little error correction (5/6) so pretty hard to get. Thor 6 is going to take over from Thor 3 in a matter of days, and 3A is going to be replaced by 3B early next year. 3B is an EADS Astrium E3000 the same model currently being ordered for 28.2 operation in 2012. My prediction is we'll get that Germany beam on a 90cm dish from here. Not long to wait to find out.

Does anyone else have any trouble receiving this "spot beam" (19.2ºE 10862H)? I just tried it and I'm getting 80dB, which is well above what I get from Astra 2D, but it's DVB-S2 so I can't check for lock. Anyone with an HD receiver give it a try?
