Default Premiere Pack TM5200D Astra 19.2e question....

Hi there,
I have recently purchased a Technomate 5200d and I have a question for you.

I am living in Donegal, Ireland and I have my TM5200 connected to my sky Mini Dish... I understand that my sky dish is at 28.2 degrees...
But when I tune in Astra 19.2E on my TM (without moving my dish), I can get hundreds of channels!!! Is this normal?

However, I am trying to get the Premiere Pack from Germany...
Could you tell me how to do this? It's not coming up in the channel list, I've checked online and it says I must press BOOKMARk, I've tried this to no avail!

You will be just picking stuff up off 28.2e

Both Astra 1 and Astra 2 have transponders on the same frequency. Your box won't know what satellite its looking at. Its only going by what you have told it.

It thinks its on 19.2e because thats what you have set it up as

You won't get 19.2e and 28.2e together on a mini dish, its just to small

Your mini dish should be able to pick up stuff from 19.2e if its pointed directly at it

You will probably need to realign your dish onto Astra 1. You will need to move it to the right slightly (If your behind the dish) and up a bit to find Astra 1 if your dish is currently looking at Astra2
