[QUOTE="dxsat, post: 370077, member: 193607"] i think Topper has the answer. Did the drop out move forward one hour with the clocks last weekend? I've noticed something very similar in Madrid, the weak spot for the past few weeks has been at this time, just before Astra 2D goes into eclipse. I've got some margin on my dish so I'm only losing 10891H ITV Meridian, but you must have a signal right at the threshold of breakup in late evening. I guess SES Astra will want to conserve energy by switching to batteries at the last possible moment. The affected channels are horizontal 2D frequencies, such as 10803H and 10773H. If the problem disapppears in the next week or so, then eclipse will be the reason. It will recur in six months' time, then every spring and autumn. The only solution is to increase dish size. You have the best possible gear in other respects. [/QUOTE]
