[QUOTE="Hitchcock, post: 195135, member: 196478"] To go back to my initial brilliant suggestion :D, did you fit the circular feedhorn on the dish and see if your Technomate measured anything on 61.5°W? The following frequencies might be of particular interest*: 12,326 MHz ([URL="http://www.satellites.co.uk/php-bin/forum/showpost.php?p=269352&postcount=4"]Dish Network test card?[/URL]) 12,442 MHz [SIZE=1]/[/SIZE][URL="http://forum.digitalspy.co.uk/board/showthread.php?p=5881683"][SIZE=1]Strongest transponder?[/SIZE][/URL][SIZE=1]/[/SIZE] 12,473 MHz ([URL="http://forum.digitalspy.co.uk/board/showthread.php?p=5881683"]Dish Network test card?[/URL]) [SIZE=1]* [/SIZE][URL="http://forum.digitalspy.co.uk/board/showthread.php?p=6484592"][SIZE=1]Best tuning in at 11 PM?[/SIZE][/URL] Only if you think it's worth the bother, of course. At the very least, we would confirm that a (properly set up) 1.8 m would be insufficient in Wales and therefore probably England and France as well (not sure about Spain/Portugal).
