Playing with one of the 80 cm dishes on a glorious sunny day here in the Scottish Borders.

Reasonable reception of the Horizontal tp's ONLY of Astra 3A

8)

11515H is the best one:

Strength 80%
Quality 48%

The other H's are around 40%

Not a sniff of the V's though - The quality meter stays resolutely on 0.

Been up peaking the old sail today myself. Summer was invented for this.

It was very pleasant sitting in the garden. Imagine the scene,

- old tv & Fortec sat receiver sitting on the Workmate bench
- cut down cardboard box balanced on tv as glare screen over the telly

- 80cm dish precariously balanced on 2 old tyres - to get it high enough to peek over the hedge.
- me reclining on the bench cup of tea in hand gleefully flicking through dozens of new Arabic channels
- neighbours peering over fence wondering wtf Im up to
