[QUOTE="bignick, post: 267242, member: 190163"] I'm afraid I've got to disagree with that comment too. The DSB30 freezes when it can't quite make the signal. For you this may not be quite so apparent as the the dish sizes between astra 2d and the others is massive. (4.2m as opposed to 2.4m for example) However in this part of the world a 2.4m dish will happily get about 10-14hrs of BBC/ITV if the setup is good - and sometimes even to the detriment of other channels such as Paramount 2, eurosport etc.......You would NEVER fine tune a 2.4m dish for astra 2d in Kyrenia - it would be folly...but we can do it here. A fine tune for 2d is different than for 2b on these dishes. So, it is when channels are particularly weak at certain times that the problems occur - and as you can see from the above this is more likely to happen in the Phaphos to Limmasol areas because we are more likely to have channels comming in and out. Hope that helps Cheers Nick [/QUOTE]
