*I've checked the size of the dish and it turns out Trigger is right and it's actually a 3.1. If I added a foot all round what would the distance be then? Do you have the calculations? I've more or less given up with this size of dish as since I've last worked with it I've got BBC all night...

*Ok though the guy I had met I think was also from Lanzarote. Thanks again

Thanks for your help but he has everything else on other satellite packages such as show time the only ones he can't get elsewhere, apart from the net and even then it's not reliable enough to advertise it with certainty, is Setanta Ireland and BBC Scotland at the same time. He has a game this...

Interesting you should say that the first time I ever set this dish I had perfect pictures till 10PM but now can't get any better than 8PM possibly the brighter nights and battery power on the satellite itself. I'm glad to read your replies at least I can tell him others experience as he thinks...

*Thanks it's the Flower of Scotland which is why he needs the Setanta Ireland and not so much the sports one as they cover Celtic/Rangers matches more often. I think I might have met you next door in the Portugues, if you normally use that nick, do you know Adam from UK satellites here?

The dish is a prime focus, I'm not sure which but it has a solid center with petals half way out with the LNB arms linked to the center bowl. It has one main thick support at the back from top to bottom and a large ring of thick tubing behind the center bowl linked also to the main support...

Thanks for the relpies btw. The box would be important but I can't get both channels locked at all at night at the same time so I have to work at the dish end first.

I edited that post but it didn't seem to come up. I just wanted to add that I'm aware of the alternatives such as Inverto and the like but despite the bad reviews of Korean and Chinese etc has anyone found any success with any of them?

Hi all I live in fuerteventura half way up the island and I'm trying to receive both Setanta which is on Eurobird and BBC Scotland which is on Astra D I can get both during the day but one or the other breaks up by eight O'clock depending on which I focus on or trying to find a midpoint. The...
