[QUOTE="Flipit, post: 430454, member: 185301"] I'd have thought the same, if the Dish wasn't on a mast on the corner of my property, there's no head end decoder that I can see, just a Dish, LNB and cable going into the ground.. could be underground but no access box I can locate which makes me think not. Given the above I pondered this for a while... how can a normal TV get DVB-S ?? Not possible .. so how come the channels show up on my TV... My natural conclusion, as you suggested to, was it's being droped to analouge, total waste... then I noticed that Astra 1F has some channels broadcast in PAL, so just connecting to the cable would mean these could be decoded by a normal analouge TV right ?? Hence my original question about signal interference mergeing the two and any method of checking for sure, given what I can find so far. Anyway I agree with you over 30W even if I could get 19.2E , nothing opens it, but this is now bugging the hell out of me, so it's a matter of principle... even if I manage to disconnect all my neihbours in the process :-) I feel some re-cabling of the mast comming on.. may even slip in the process, woud be a shame in the moved a fee degrees West ..
