Re: Badr 26’e.
You don't think the really bad wind we had over the weekend might have anything to do with it
 Your dish has probably gone out of line mate. You will need to get it re-alligned to 26e   Nano

Re: Badr 26’e.
Thank you for answering. The dish is mounted on 4 inch diameter steel pole and well bolted to a concrete base and has with stood some very strong winds. I will take your advice and re-aline 26E. Can you give me instructions how to do this?

Re: Badr 26’e.
The way I have always got 26E is to first find 28E, then select a transponder that is not on 28E but is on 26E and then edge the dish very slightly westwards, and up just a very tiny amount, for max signal quality on the chosen transponder.
