[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 527348, member: 256551"] Hi, the bar would have its dish pointed at 28E, the same place yours was/is. The difference is many of the Sky subscription channels are available in the Canaries with a small dish. For example Sky Sports 2 is on this beam:- [url]http://www.lyngsat-maps.com/maps/astra2b_south.html[/url] Most of the UK terrestrial channels are however transmitted on Astra 2D, which is focussed on the UK, which is why you have a 3m dish installed presumably. Also you should be able to receive from Eurobird1 (28.5E) no problem. I would assume that your 3m dish is big enough for 2D, and just needs re-alignement or perhaps an LNB replacement, but one of the other members who has 1st hand experience in your neck of the woods would be able to say yes or no though. Robbo:) [/QUOTE]
