[QUOTE="Andyroo, post: 4625"] [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 09-Jan-01 AT 09:45 PM (GMT)[/font][p][font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 09-Jan-01 AT 09:33 PM (GMT)[/font] 2old, Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Yes, your quite right, it turns out that its the vertically polarised channels that are missing. However, there's no switch box. The Pace had 2 LNB inputs and they were fed direct. (I've Just seen Rolf's reply and I see that I have misled you by using the term dual instead of 2 LNBs. My apologies) I was led to believe that I had 2 universal LNB's by guy who installed the original Pace system. In fact, he had to change the one (13 degrees) to a universal because I couldn't switch to the high band when searching channels. From then on I was able to switch high/low on both LNB's so I assumed they were both universal. Anyhow, I got the ladders out today to have a look. Hotbird is clearly marked as a Grundig Universal 0.8dB LNB. As for the Astra, well, it's hard to make out, but I could see L.O. 9.75 Ghz Euro120 1.0dB. Can I assume that it's a straight forward operation to change an LNB. If so, I'm off to the local Sat shop. Many thanks Andy [/QUOTE]
