Hi

Ive lost reception of the music channel Power TV & Power TV HD from 42e Turksat.

Im using a 64cm triax dish and dark motor on a Mutant 51.

I can still pick up 30w all the way to City TV via 45e so i think the dish hasnt gone of track.

Please can anyone advise on reception of Power TV 42e using a small dish in the UK

Ive even plugged in my TM5402 and sent to reference and dont get many turksat channels on that.

THanks

In South East England, both channels (on 12265/V/27500) are coming in "loud and clear" (SS 82%, SQ 92% on the SX88) on the off-set LNB for 42E on the no-name 80cm fixed dish (other 2 LNBs are 46E & 52E) - also, obviously same/better on the 1.2m steerable Gibertini.
Edite: corrected frequency! :-doh

Thanks for the info that's great!! Motor might of gone out slightly hard to tell these days as Engima 2 doesn't give accurate signal levels. That's why I still hold onto my 5402!

Have a play with the sat position setting for 42E - a "little bit either way" on that frequency - might work more successfully with the TM or the SX88 as compared with the Solo 2 (don't know about the other two receivers).

OTOH, maybe the motor/dish combo has "dropped" a little and is scanning a little below the correct arc?

The low channel count on the TM could be confirming one or both of those possibilities????
