Very interesting - taking the nw-se axis as the datum thats just about 180 degrees opposite the Canaries!timo_w2s said:Just read on a Finnish forum of a user who has got the reception of 2F on a good quality 2.4m Aerial Oy dish in Lappeenranta, near the border with Russia. Could be a sidelobe?
Oh yes... Mmm. Will have a look at my parents setup in the next couple of weeks but not really expecting anything on a 1.8m in Helsinki. Shame I don't have a meter as I suspect a receiver won't register anything of much interest...Analoguesat said:Very interesting - taking the nw-se axis as the datum thats just about 180 degrees opposite the Canaries!
Update today - Astra 2F has changed orbit and improved reception in Bergen.Hiach said:I have finally got an idea of how bad the SNR goes on a 0.7x0.8m dish in Bergen.
(Inverto Ultra Black LNB + Humax Foxsat HD)
10964H goes down to 40% quality in the evening (clear sky).
-> The picture is pixelating, but not completely lost.
Reception at 20:45 CET:
10964H: 80% / 40%
10994H: 80% / 40%
11023H: 0% / 0%
11053H: 80% / 50%
11127V: 80% / 60%
That's a shame. Reckon there is no chance if me getting permission for a 4m dish. Certainly not from the neighbors.timo_w2s said:Oh yes... Mmm.

Even the so called new 2F Pan-European beam could be difficult for those of us with smaller dishes in Finland soon. I find I'm using my UK registered iPad and a VPN account a lot more these days for UK TV viewing - at least we have decent internet speeds in most of Finland.SteveWhit said:That's a shame.

However a work around is sky go. Downside is losing the ability to record everything.
