[QUOTE="meldrew, post: 32436, member: 176182"] I would expect your receiver to have a facility to show signal strength for each channel. You can use this as some form of fine tuning once you have the basics in place. On my technomate it has a strength indicator in use when scanning for channels which is also a good indicator. Further North than you with an 80cm mesh dish I get around 90% on the strength scale for both Hotbird and Astra. RolfW's comment on twisting the LNB is relevant as the Astra satellite is lower in the sky and the Astra feed should therefore be slightly higher than the anchored Hotbird one. [/QUOTE]
