In Bergen 11720H (8psk) was used to adjust the dish with good result, but when I tried the same, I got no respons. With 11836H DVB-S I got very good result on the same satellite.
Here we do not receive a strong 8psk signal from IN or 2F. My this be part of the problem?

Or is the problem in my IPbox 9000?

What size and make or dish do you have as no one else in Canary Islands can get it to even lock. Tested with a 3.7 meter and 3.5 meter.

Looks like skew matters. Colleague from Leszno h__p://goo.gl/maps/gEv56 did this small adjust and signal raised a significantly. Now he receives 11023H with SNR87 Q71 comparing to 10906V SNR86 Q76 200 cm dish

rough guess going on reports i say your talking 4-5m dish but it quite possible that it will be impossible to receive once sd channels trasnfer over we will get a clearer picture what is needed
well, living in a flat, in a residential building, downtown budapest, even my 1.5m gibertini on the roof was pushing it with the neighbours :)
i dont even think i could safely install a dish over 2-3 metres on the roof...anyhow...being a sky subcscriber, hopefully its only goodbye from psb channels...unless sky decides to move their channels as well
