[QUOTE="dxsat, post: 389898, member: 193607"] Somehow you posted in a thread for Cyprus.. Anyway, to answer your question. You should have received BBC 1 and ITV with your old dish, 2D is perfectly possible in Las Rozas Madrid with this size. The problems you experience now are well known with the Panasonic 30. Most people now recommend using them as a door stop. It's because your signal is still too weak on 2D horizontals to give it a reliable signal. If the signal is present but too low to give a picture, the DSB30 will freeze on channel change. There is no cure for this. A Pace 430n or 2600 CI will work a great deal better, no lockups, they will cost about £40 or £60 respectively on eBay. You need to do a bit more work on tuning the dish. Which Invacom 0.3 are you using? If it came in one part, ready to use, you have the wrong one. BBC 2 is weaker in west Madrid than the East, you will lose it by about 10-30 pm where you are. Vertical polarised channels such as most BBC1, ITV London, Granada, etc, should be solid 24/7. [/QUOTE]
