On a 1m dish in southern England what sort of reception should i expect of the following feeds

1W 11672V 5632 3/4 ABC SCOPUS (BAGDHAD)
15W 11518H 3744 7/8 DAD-5 NBC FEEDS.

Both are marginal on new setup and just trying to workout if dish tracked properly.
Cheers

Just found the ABC feed as well, again reasonable strength and quality on the 80cm dish.

hmmm. Sounds like my dish is not tracking that well then as the ABC feed is breaking up badly in particular. The Wimbledon feed on Sunday on NBC was also breaking up. Rolf berkshire here as well!

The 15W feed is not quite as good as the 1W one, I was getting slight pixellation on it, but haven't played with it to see if I can get a better lock.
