[QUOTE="pjgregory, post: 517528, member: 288654"] Salute Paul68 I live near Monteulciano (about 150km west from you) with a IRTE 2.4m Prime Focus Dish and do not get Astra 2D. I have made this map of recent reception reports. There is no good reception further south of lattitude 43 degrees. I now think that I must now replace my dish with the same as yours - 3.7m Prodeline. Did you buy this in Italy or import it directly from the USA? My idea about rotating the LNB and feed horn with a stepper motor is due to the difficulties I can see with reaching the LNB inside such a large dish. The adjustments for elevation and azimuth can be done more easily from the ground at the back of the dish. Ciao PJG [/QUOTE]
