thanks for your reply
UK TV comes from 4 satellites, Astra 2a, 2b, 2d and Eurobird 1. They are all located between 28.2 to 28.5, close enough to be picked up by one dish, if aligned properly. So even though your dish is too small to pick up A2D, it should be able to pick up the others.
Once your dish is aligned to the satellites, You can add 2 ITV1 regions to your sky box by manually adding them SERVICES,4,4,input frequency, find channels, press YELLOW to put a tick next to the desired channels, select, and then these are added to the other channel list, accessed via the services menu. It may be that if your sky card is registered in one of htose ITV1 regions it will already be available on 103, but if not then you will have to add it to the other channels list
