[QUOTE="dxsat, post: 134946, member: 193607"] You have probably hit sun outage time! For about ten minutes the sun is directly behind the satellite and will blot out all Astra 2D signals in your location. Check your clock though- it will be around 11.40 am local time. It could be something else, such as a thundercloud. Sun outage calculator: [url]http://www.satellite-calculations.com/SUNcalc/SUNcalc.htm[/url] Also useful to find satellites and to check you have an unobstructed view of them. [/QUOTE]
