[QUOTE="Old Geezer, post: 59609, member: 181961"] Hi Neeraj, It occurred to Me that both the channels that you mention are from the Eurobird satellite at 28.5E. The dishes were originally set up for the Astra birds at 28.2E, so a bit either side would still pick up the signal.Since they now use the 2 satellites for Sky , You may be slightly off on the position of the dish , so that You don't get a strong enough signal on Eurobird (Yes , I also think the Sony box has a weak tuner , but it is good looking !!). It's worth checking out which channels get the No Sat Signal on and comparing them to a sat chart (kingofsat or lyngsat) to find out if they are common to the same satellite. Chances are that You'll also be missing other channels like ACTV and probably Bonanza. The other thought is that the signal strength/quality are from the default EPG channel on Astra 2 , so if the problem is common to only the Eurobird satellite , then the signal information will be of no use. Hope this info may be helpful , and if I've made any blunders hopefully the mods will put Me right. [/QUOTE]
