[QUOTE="Riddim, post: 24001"] Thanks Again.... I have by now tried so many combinations I am flagging in this British Sunshine :-) I did everything you advised and Hotbird is strong and stable. I have tried MINOR lateral and vertical movements of the dish but Astra will not come up properly. Something seems to be there, the strength meter on the TV Menu shows it hovering around 10-15% then it pops up to 40% momentarily, but not good enough to give me a Green light on the menu. I did find Astra at one point but it was way out of position to maintain a signal from Hot Bird. Bet I am missing something really fundamental. I will try lowering the horn as advised but I dont hold out much hope on this one, at one point I rotated the whole LNB unit and repositioned the dish but still no good. Should I get someone in with a magic box......???? I bet they have sat finders that say exactly what the dish is pointing to.......... Not that I give up easy I might add....... :-) Thanks for the picky bits, I appreciate all the help I can get, I know that I have much to learn ... Best Regards, Riddim [/QUOTE]
