Hi, looking for some advice. Unpacked my new quad lnb, stuck it on my old 90cm dish (last used 10 years ago) installed new cable down to my sparkly new Humax foxsat box, switched on and scanned for Freesat. No channels,
Then went for a manual scan and lots of channels found,
Sat back, flicked through and found most channels to be in German (some Austrian) although good old CNN and Eurosport were also present. Excellent picture quality on all channels. I thought that my dish had been left aligned to Astra as I used to have a sky subscription 10 years ago and also used to receive Eutelsat (I think?) via an offset arm with lnb.
Any ideas to which satellite I'm on and how to align to 28.2E to pick up Freesat? Also are my old 10-14year old lnb's any use? I've also got an old skybox, what will I be able to receive with this?
Apologies for the many questions!!
