[QUOTE="Saturlight, post: 381801, member: 233652"] Thanks for the replies, chums. :) It's much appreciated. The dish's too far up the wall, to go up the ladder, I leave that to the professionals. As regards "signal level", it was showing some signal strength, but not sufficient to get a proper signal as the dish wasn't pointing at any specific satellite. I fiddled with the receiver last night and tried to get the dish to move, from east to west. By the looks of the outside, it looks like it's came off the sat track. The dish moved. I had Astra 2, then it moved again. I spent a further 20 minutes inside the house, on the receiver fiddling with the east and west, and then the dish landed on Sirius, on Hustler. No joking mates, but that's where it is now. I might leave it there a couple of days. A rude picture is better than nothing at all. I don't know what the problem was...It's done this before last January but I had it down as bad weather. Saturlight. :) [/QUOTE]
