HI THERE EVERYBODY
firstly, I live in south west France, since 1992, and have always received sattelite. I have a Panasonic and a Pace. For the last couple of years I have been installing "METRONIC" systems for a number of friends, all which work perfectly. But yesterday, after installing another, it couldn't find any BBC at all. It reported that the sattelite was ASTRA 2a, so I tried my Pace on the system and couldn't get any BBC with that either. I took her Metronic to my house and received all channels perfectly. Her house overlooks open fields with not a tree in sight. The dish is an 80cm offset and lmb is 0.5db. These are standard here and have no trouble picking up the sattelite. Any ideas why I can't receive BBC channels? Are there different co-ordinates between Astra 2a and 2d? And why does her dish not pick up BBC on either the Metronic or the Pace and yet my dish does? She actually lives 50 miles north to me.
Please help.
