A Friend receives in Austria ( farer away from the Beam as you ) Astra 2d with 2,3 m Solid Dish! (horizontal nearly everything and vertical with tropouts at 21.00 cet. )

Where about in Austria is this 2.3m located ? I'm wondering that the H's are stronger than the V's. All the reports i'm aware of report the opposite.

Oh, you mean satdx (moderator at _http://www.satclub-thueringen.de) from St. Pölten. The equipment he is using is of very high efficiency and expensive.

Thanks for the thread i've had seen some time ago but forgotten.
Best regards from Stuttgart.

P.S.: As a user of a high gain Andrew 4.5m it would help many people to see (in another thread of course) what you can (not) receive from certain difficult satellite positions/beams.

are you sure this is correct???

according to king of sats Five is encrypted on 11665 and there is no BBC.

good job for pointing it out though,

if five is encrypted but not part of a pay package on this satelitte then who is watching this channel?????:eek:
