If you go to _http://en.kingofsat.net/ you should be able to identify which satellite you are receiving. It doesn't sound like Astra 28E. If you know the channel name yuo can search for that. It sounds more like Astra 19E or Hotbird 13E.

Regards,

Hi, Can you post up a photo of the back of your 'black dish'.
so we can see exactly what its lacking.


If you are on 19.2E, you need to move the dish left a bit, and down a bit (from behind).

If you are on 13E and you follow the above, you will end on 19.2E, with more crappy porn and foreign progs.

I dont have a camera, and i still using the 35 cm white jobby... trouble is everytime i try to set up someone comes down.... usually kids!!!! so i never get finished grrrr :spite:
Thanks for the link - looks like i am on Hotbird 13E

Now would be a good time You have a good seven hours of uninterrupted dish-fiddling! :clap:

I think that's all you need - just some time to play. The elevation won't need to change much - a few millimetres - so just swing it to the left - imagine you were behind it and pointing it like a gun.

When you have it aligned you can start over with the other dish tomorrow night!

Cheers (again) the picture on here of the locations - looks like i am close, once i get it set i am gonna mark it and stick it on the wall!! with superglue at the mo i am on the low wall by the road. and its not level i have tweaked the LNB, the other LNB (black sky dish has a quad on it - does that mean i can feed 4 recievers????? - now the boys would like that!!! esp if one was on hotbird... is there a way to get premiership footie on these free??? well worth a try to keep em quiet.

Yes, you can connect four receivers to a quad LNB, but it can only point at one satellite at a time.
