[QUOTE="nelson_b, post: 840102, member: 296628"] hi - i can only echo what captain jack says in the above post regarding a very clear view to the satellite - and if you could Post a picture of your view towards 68.5E from your intended install position - have you checked your line of sight using dishpointer.com ? nothing special needed re the l.n.b. or receiver, 68.5 europe beam is quite strong - and the transponder you are seeking is no exeption - i was receiving it no problem - even with 80x90 cm offset dish . are you using a 1.1 meter fixed dish & Technomate TM-2 0.1 db LNB as stated in an earlier post ? it should easily be enough for any receiver. if you are using a offset dish it will need to be pointing downwards at quite an angle - have a look at the picture in post 17 (this thread), your elevation to the sat is better than mine being further south so it will be not quite as steep as mine. obstacles in the line of sight are usually the problem with this sat. i have only two places here where i can see 68.5 E and neither of them are suitable for a permanent install. regards -- nelson.b.
