I have given up on Orbit/Eurobird as the signals are very weak.
May be by using a proper feedhorn and a Norsat 4000C in the horizontal axis, one could extract more of the Orbits with the CM120.
Should be tried.

Nothing on the orbit transponders here. 1.2m dish located near Heathrow.

Why is Orbit jumping around all the time on all sats?

A Gibertini OP125 has full reception of EB2 from SE Bavaria (Traunstein Region) except of 11005V+11009V of course which are on the Superbeam. I asked a friend of mine to check it. The dish is fix with focus at 28.2E and getting 42E-39E-25.5E-19.2E-16E-13E-9E in the offset.

Sorry, i have to correct myself. 11005V + 11009V are beeing received and at 51N/12E even 10985V is there but on the limit because of the FEC=7/8.

Take a look at http://forum.dxtv.de/wbb/thread.php?threadid=12520 page 4 charly20 from Brussels. He uses an Aerial Oy 2.40m and his results were very poor for EB2 in rainy conditions and 4°C.
