    Cant get certain transponders on 28E ... why?

    Right your men and motors are on a 22000-5/6 Makes sure you are putting in 22000 and not 27500. Yes BBC News moved, if your with Sky it's okay, if not as many free to view people are not, then it just vanishes with not a word, figured it out myself though, thanks to the net, so on. Strange...

    Advice on internal dish please.

    See my posting Digital satellite indoors, oh yes And don't start me off again, lol, actually I've just relented and put my ugly thing, I mean fortec 65cm outside and brought the minidish back in which is still easily as ever picking up most of 13.0E and 19.2 and 28.2-5 and so on. In hindsight...

    Who knows, terrible box, should have taken mine back it will crash if I try to move channels, lol, mad it is, then have to factory reset and start again. Rare but can do the same on finding channels, rather deleting them, think the software, bit rubbish, can't handle too much. Anyway, sorry...

    Digital satellite indoors, oh yes

    Recently I relented, wanting to see if I could get some feeds, and decided therefore to put the 65cm fortect outside. In some cases, compared to behind the window and net curtain and so on with window open some, no difference, yes wow, in other cases I noted anything from a few percent to 10% on...

    pity B&Q offer off now, mind you, you did say motor and probably want bigger dish than the 60cm mesh sky like one right. Maplins, gonna cost yeah, or maybe one of those online things, like where I got my lnb from, satellitesuperstore.com I think, something like that. Use google, what it is for...

    Hey guys, put tv and everything on, nothing, so figured was on the sport channel right, channged channels with remote and then checked signal, not great, moved dish, easily gets moved, and then wow, JCTV at 71% I'm sure it should be 61%, so went back to the sport channel, yep, 51%, but this is...

    Digital satellite indoors, oh yes

    HUGE breakthrough. I was gonna clean the windows right, cat knocked, pulled more like the net curtains down, moving the dish, spoiling the dancing on ice feed, lol, anyway, guess what, cleaned windows and put all back and tried, nothing, what was I expecting. So I thoguht, open the windows...

    Digital satellite indoors, oh yes

    Plastic, but might have something inside windows, last night had some 20 metres on plus, today I've decided to go with 6 metres, 20 feet, still have 50 feet left, having used 3 off before, 3 foot 3 inches should have been 82 foot, but looks like it was 80 feet odd. Anyway, leaves me with 50...

    Digital satellite indoors, oh yes

    Hmm, hey this is a whole new ball game. Hard going but did find one suggesting not less than 30 feet, so on. Thing is making me wonder now, bbc news 24 normally so strong, certainly on any outdoor minidish, like 90%, right. Yet struggling at around 50% tops breaking up, only work in one place...

    Digital satellite indoors, oh yes

    yeah seen that, funny things that work eh. No picture on my sport channel starting to go now. Weird, read about this night things, sun, battery back up so on. However another article, or thread somewhere suggested as if the earth did not block the sun from the satellites. I'll know latter...

    Digital satellite indoors, oh yes

    Hmm, interesting, unless it's just weather conditions again. Today, risked spending more money through the nose at B&Q, meaning no doubt cheaper else where, but now guess what. All I've done lnb wise take off cling film, put clear plastic over it that I bought a switcher in from B&Q which seems...

    Getting started

    B&Q 80 pounds, kid you not, was gobsmacked, truly. Otherwise Maplins, the B&Q one, well, one said 100 pounds odd, come to end of the isle and found them on offer I think, kit, serious, think it is 60cm dish, mesh and box. Mine, not that impressed, try moving channels and crashes, otherwise...

    Digital satellite indoors, oh yes

    Question for you guys, seeing as the horizon goes, you know, how can I explain it, never good with words I'm afraid, around, as you go to left or right of south, not just a case of moving the dish left and right and up and down, but, here it comes, can you alter the angle of your dish or the...
