Okay, I got the answer (about the "Where did you get the information that Astra can just change the spotbeam") - the literal translation would be:

"The information is coming from an insider at ASTRA who could generally be trusted!"

Okay, now call it rumor or not, I'd leave that to you ;) .

It's surely cross-polarisation with such a strong vertical signal remlap, at least with my setup - some bleed-through with my LNB I suppose.

I don't get it!

I don't mean the frequency, I mean all the various posts!

I thought we were going to lose these channels and now they're coming through stronger????

So all my stress was for nothing? Or is there still a possibility when I return to Cyprus next week I will be gutted?

basically it looks likely you wont get any of the PBS channels in cpyrus once they move to astra 1n but no one can garantee that until they move or someoen i cyprus can try see if they can get that frequency 11127v

Well I did try telling them it would be stronger like Astra 3B at 23.5e but I have to admit the panicking has been very amusing.

Spain is one thing, Cyprus is another as it is so far away, so it remains to be seen.

I meant to say that the most south eastern reports of this signal have been Vienna and they havent been received there. Given you are considerably more east i would assume the worst...
