Eurobird 28 degrees S1 beam in Gran Canaria South on 80cm Dish

[petediscrete]

Is it possible to receive the S1 beam on Eurobird 28 degrees on an 80cm dish in Gran Canaria South.Picking up the fixed beam at the moment but very weal signal on S1.Was going to motorise but getting parts down here is a night mare.Currently have two 80cm dishes running through a diseqc switch, one pointing at 28 degrees and the other pointing at 26 degrees.Weird feeling but you can get all the transponders on 26 degrees with a saucer compared to the trouble I had picking up the MBC bouquet in Dublin. On top of that of course is the AD Sports which I would need a 3m dish for back home in Dublin.

True Movies etc need 2.4m here.

Worth noting a couple of points with the larger dish; doubt it'll work 24/7 and you won't get 2D whilst aligned to S1.
