Hi sorry if this is in the wrong section ?
Just moved out to Lanzerote and got sky pluged in but i cant seem to pick up channel 4, nor itv. Im only using a standard dish not a 3.1m one. Any advice or any contact number would be much appreciated.
Thank You.
 
Thanks for the reply chaps. Im thinking i need a slightly bigger dish or maybe a realignment as we have no bbc programs at all nor itv. How annoying.
 
If you want the BBC channels you are going to need a MUCH bigger dish - not a slightly bigger one!

:D
 
Well i managed to grab some time and get on the roof today. There is a bigger dish up there id say 2meters approx, but no lmb :( and its pointing at a slightly different angle. Is it worth me putting the lmb from smaller dish on it ? and wireing it up?

Can you Post some piccies?

It'll make it easier to give the right advice.

Also LMB = LNB (Low Noise Block downconverter) :)

You say your using a standard dish, what size is that out of interest?

2B North is also a problem, but can't be exact, maybe local member 'trigger' will see this post.

For any chance of a sniff of the uk spot beam, for example, a CM 2.4m correctly set up is the absolute minimum here but you won't get anywhere near 24/ 7 coverage.

The norm is a famaval 3.1m :)
 
I will try and get some pic posted tmrw to see if anyone can shed light on other dish, i will also get measurement for smaller dish.

:-DOH2 Opps lmao @ lmb the sun has gone to my head lol.
 
Hello

As per previous posts its quite a jump in size to get Astra 2D for BBC ITV etc. You can post mail me if you want me to have a look. I'm in Puerto but get to Playa Blanca at least once a week so I could pop in.

Cheers
