Are you sure you are pointing at 1 West? ?Some frequencies are the same (similar )on different Sats. If you are pointing at the right one (and it wouldn`t update with a patient wait of up to a couple o minutes)try to switch the receiver OFF and ON again at the back to force the update. I tried the patch (altough I do not normally watch DIgi TV but moved the dish to see if it`s working) and it is working.

Did you get a signal on 11325H- BBC World?

If you have a motorised dish, enter your long and lat and within USALS send the dish to 1W. Then adjust the declination (swivel the dish up and down) and swivel the motor round the pole for the best quality signal on 11325H.

Assuming your elevation (motor) is correct and the pole vertical you should be tracking the arc reasonably well. Have you read the motor set-up stickies.?
