Yeah I wondered whether you got the Russian or the Sub-Saharan beam as you're sort of in the middle between the two...

You will lose the rest of the Astra 2A channels in the near future too when 2A is shut down completely & sent to a new home.

Yes, unfortunately these new Astra satellites (2E and 2F) are not kind to us on the eastern side.

Hi @anilw , welcome to the Forum! Your dream will not be fulfilled unless you physically move (with your antennas) closer to Europe.

Nah - no changes & there are at least 10 years before any of the new Astra 2's are due to be replaced.

They are not blocking reception outside of the UK / Europe - they are just using more modern satellite technology to limit the reception. Two very different things - it was a happy accident that reception was more widely available than the official coverage area due to limitations of the design of older craft.

More modern craft with less overspill = more orbital slots can be activated = more revenue for the operators.
