[QUOTE="Fisty McB, post: 934678, member: 389824"] Have you checked the skew of your LNB aimed towards 28 east? My own dish aimed for that sat is a standard Zone 2 Mk3 dish and I originally had the MTI lnb skew set at "4" to favour the weaker Eutelsat 28A signals (as opposed to the recommended "3" for here) - a couple of days ago I went out to adjust the skew to "3" and the ex-E28A signals gained roughly a 0.5db SNR improvement e.g. just before I went outside Vintage TV was 12.3db SNR, when I came back in it was now hitting 12.8db. So it seems that these new Astra satellites for the 11.2 - 11.45GHz band has the same skew offset that is on other frequencies on the same birds of 2E/F/G. [/QUOTE]
