[QUOTE="alanwaddle72, post: 2172"] thanks to everyone who replied. we have now figured out what has happened. they have changed the sky sports beam from 2A North to 2B South (the new frequency is 12110), this resulting in a weaker beam in helsinki, because helsinki is very much on the edge of the 2B footprint. the only thing we can do is get a bigger dish, unfortunately the chances for this are very limited. i currently have a 115x105cm dish, and the fella who installed this claimed a 120cm dish would probably not help, and a 150cm dish would not fit in my balcony. between this, there are no options, as it seems only Triax and Nokia dishes are sold in finland - apart from poor quality russian dishes which probably would not help at all. the question is - seeing as it must be a very close call (we can receive the channels ok 75% of the time), would it still be worth it investing in a slightly bigger dish? is it really true there are no quality offset dishes available between the sizes of 120cm and 150cm? is there somewhere in the net i could look for these?
