[QUOTE="lazydave, post: 47187, member: 179033"] Your dish is big enough, at least. :) BBC should definitely NOT show up as scrambled. And you dish+lnb (including the effect (+/-3 degrees ?) of the LNB mount should be "looking" ~30 deg east of south, not 20. 20 corresponds to Astra1. So you might actually be looking at 10773H on Astra 1 @ 19E, which is a transponder used for broadband by T-online in Germany. What do you get if you scan 10788V or 10803 H ? ...But if that's not the case and you are aimed more-or-less at the right spot ;) : A high signal "strength" just tells you that you are pointing at something that is transmitting. That doesn't mean that it's the right thing. It's the other bar, i.e. signal "quality" that really matters. What is the signal quality on 10773 H ? It sounds like your alignment is a bit marginal; you wouldn't notice that at all on Astra 2A/2B, but you definitely would on Astra 2D. :eek: Next you should check your LNB skew settings. If the LNB isn't correctly rotated, you will lose some of the already weak signals or you might only get one of the polarities, e.g. all V but no H transponders. [/QUOTE]
