Astra 19.2 - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

Abby Bennadi · 02-07-08, 03:24 PM

I have recently purchased a Triax 1m dish with a single LNB. I have angled the main dish which slides up and down to 32 digrees and move the dish across and have caught Hotbird. but i want to catch Astra 19.2. I have moved the dish slightly because i was told that the two salelites are close to each other but no luck.

Can anyone help as to where i am going wrong?

Thanks

From Hotbird (13), Astra 19E is left a bit and down a bit (from behind dish).

To compare the settings for the two go to dishpointer.com.

If the pole is vertical, the elevation setting on the dish for 19E is about 27 degrees for the middle of the uk.Further south a bit higher, bit lower more north.
