So what your saying is, you had it all working fine but since you raised and replaced the brackets; it no longer picks up all the satellites ?

All, you need to do mate, is to go through Rolf or satelliteman's guide again, step by step.

Now you have the pole nice and sturdy and vertical, motorise to Thor as before, then move the motor round the pole and adjust the elevation angle of the dish, for max quality on 11325H, and you should get everything back.

honestly I did that but no way I can get Thor or BBC on 11325H which should be the strongest signal. I am going to give it a try this weekend again, and let you know, but believe me that Rolf guide is my bible

thanks and nice weekend to you all!

Try 12341V (national Geographic) instead, you may have more luck.:)

here i am again!, sorry I have been unable to put in practise your advices, but with this crappy summer that we are having, I have not been in the mood to have an accident in the ladder...

Anyway, yesterday,(not rainy day), I tried all day to oriented the dish. Just when I was running out of light (and faith!), I managed to get some signal and some channels

It seems that I can see pretty much the same channels than before changing the wall installation to T &K brackets. Now I am going to investigate which satellites I am catching, as honestly I am not 100% sure. One thing I know for sure, and it is that Hispasat seems to be out of my league...
i have printed from _http://www.lyngsat.com/europe.html all the astra and hotbird info, as I am not sure which one I am getting, so with the list of all the frequencies I guess I will find out or go nuts!

once again thanks for your help!!!! and have a nice loooong weekend! ;0)

Hello gents

I am afraid after all my efforts I can get channels from hotbird and astra. (spanish and polish) However I can not get the english freesat ones and the ones from hispasat

Is this as far as I can get?

Would it be better if I change my receiver? (as the one I have got is few years old and not updated). would it give me more chances?

Thanks
