[QUOTE="Paul33, post: 388477, member: 256548"] Actually, it's not for me but for my father who has just purchased a "Satellite in a Suitcase" from Maplin, UK for his caravan ! Basically, he wants to get Astra 28.2E so that he can watch UK channels when in Europe. He has all the detecting kit and is positive he is tuned in to Astra 28.2E. He has tested it out with his "in-house" sky box and can get Sky channels very clear. Problem is that when he hooks up the receiver that came with the dish (SRB SL65/12 ?), he can only get channels 0200-0205 which appear to be some form of test broadcasts. All the other channels listed for the satellite come up as "no signal" when he tries to tune in. Anybody have any obvious ideas about what he is doing wrong ? If it helps, when he finds Astra 19E then he gets all channels clearly ....... but they are nearly all German so of no use. Any help appreciated. [/QUOTE]
