Hi sorry to disrupt your daily routine, but I seem to have a problem with my longitude and latitude of which I live on the east coast, you can't go any further or I will be in the English channel near Lowestoft of which I have the latitude and longitude as the following 2.3w and 52.5n of which I'm told is somewhere in Worcester. And have been told that where I live is 52.4 and 1.71 but only then do I get ITV AND BBC but not BBC HD OR BBC1 HD and no Channel 4 but I get all the other stuff also but if I use discq1.2 I cannot get channel 4 hd but if i look for channel 4 hd and then film 4 and channel 4sd states no signal.
So at moment I use the 52.5 and receive all the channels except BBC hD/1 and channel4 HD.

So what am I doing wrong
 
No way is Longitude for Lowestoft "W" !!

It's East of the meridian ..........................


Lat 52.5 N

Long 1.75 E (EAST!!!!)

Will be fine.

If the system still doesn't work, then your dish is out of alignment.
 
You are talking in riddles, if you line the dish with clear sight at 28.2 E, it does not matter what lat or log you put in the receiver. You should pickup the channels. If you motorised it is best to say what you are doing. Use dish pointer

to find out your correct Lat and long. Just put in your post code.
 
Another good way is to download Google Earth and then zoom into your house (location) it will tell you.

Its fun to play with too.
