Whats the strongest transponder to get a signal off. I might have a go on my 90cm dish. Probably wont get anything but it would be nice to find out

Hi Nano
Try for City7 TV on 11861V, 27500, 3/4. Ident on my box is INTV. I think that you might get something on a nice clear warm night with your gear.

I'll be very surprised if you can get a horizontal on a 90cm dish, but stranger things have happened

Had a little play with partial success

I managed to get a lock on to one of the vertical transponders although what i did get was horribly pixilated

Managed to get Nojoom3 although it wasn't really watchable. I will have to have a go later on in the week when its a bit clearer and its a bit later in the evening

Finally managed to get a good picture after a little bit of adjusting

Just finished watching "We were soldiers" on Bahrain TV followed by the weather all with very little pixelation
