Hello all,
At home, in The Netherlands, I am using a (Vantage HDCS 8000) satellite receiver and a satellite dish of 1 meter with a digital universal single Monoblock with 2 LNB’s, one output (6.2 degrees) for both Astra1 (19.2 E) & Hotbird “Blue HD 2120 NX 0,2dB”. The Dish is aligned to Astra1 (primary focus) and Hotbird (secondary lnb). The signal of both Astra and Hotbird are OK.
In the summer, we are spending our vacation in the French Pyrénées. We are having the same system but with a dish of 80 cm. the signal of the Hotbird is acceptable (bit weaker than at home) but the signal of Astra1 (the Dutch channels) are extremely week, so some time we can watch some channels and some time not. Strange enough, the signal get stronger by using a simple satellite finder between the LNB block and the receiver. The question is: What is the best solution for this problem?
Thanks & regards,
Robert
