Thought I should post a photo of my new Triax dish after being inspired by the posts on this forum (and others).

Picture 2 shows my Panasonic TV, Technomate receiver, Sony DVD and video recorder(!), and Denon amp.

Picture 3 is of my colourful computer which hides a Technotrend TT3200 for HD broadcasts.

I get a signal quality of between 69%-82% on the strongest transponders between 53E and 30W and can get most of the channels I want. However, I'm only getting a signal of about 17% from 11535V and 11615V on Hispasat. I thought this may be a problem aligning with Hispasat 1D, but I can get 11617V and 11577V OK. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hey great pics

I think you mean you're getting a low signal on 11535V and 11615H

If so, I wouldn't worry, as I get a very poor signal from those two transponders too.

I bet you can always find your PC in a power cut!

Thank BGonaSTICK, H it is. Doubt I'm missing much, except some late night naughtiness.

Yes, the computer was a moment of madness, and it does glow in the dark.
