[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 859886, member: 243342"] There are two physical satellites up in the sky for Viasat's position at 5E. The first one is Astra 4A, whose Nordic beam reaches the UK with a relatively good signal strength. This is where all of the SD channels are, as well as some HD channels, that Viasat HD box isn't tuned into. The second satellite is called SES-5, on which most of the HD channels reside. This is much weaker in the UK than Astra 4A, hence why you're having issues. Read the thread I gave you - it will give you an idea of what people are receiving and where from SES-5. Whereabouts in London are you? You should be able to receive something in HD in the east of London on that size dish, though you'll probably have more issues in the west. [/QUOTE]
