Hi,

If you look on Lyngsat.com, you will be able to check what channels you require on 4W. If you click on the last column (beam) it will tell you what dish size you need.
Is your dish big enough?

Assuming it is, you would add 4W to your active satellite list,motorise the dish to the correct position and perform a scan.

You do not show your dish size in your profile but in reality you will need at least a 1.8mtr to get even the European beams acccording to Lyngsat, I doubt you stand much chance as Amos 1 and 2 are primarily aimed at the Middle East but some transponders are focussed on central Europe as per here. I am not suggesting you will not get any, I can sometimes get the odd channel but you do not mention what it is you want to receive so nobody can be specific.
