Your motor latitude(elevation),should be set to 38 degrees,according to your location latitude of 52 degrees.
While your dish angle should be 22.5 degrees.

General table for most motors,from the Diseqc Installation Guide.

how much would it cost if you get someone to fit it for you and set the cable box up. i have this

need the dish though

will the sports channel come on it? it shows skysports 1 and 2 at the moment when i just plug it in. no picture or signal though obviously.

you'll get the free channels - a few thousand on a motor with even a small dish .. better with a decent 80-1m dish

nice guide, one question, do we need to use 1w as in guide. as it wont be be in my line of sight due to an obsticle, could i use 28.2 instead?

Robbo · 24-03-11, 11:08 PM

Yes you could if using USALS, but better to get as close to due south as you can, eg 4.8E or 5W, failing that 9E or 13E.

tron2 · 02-04-11, 06:49 PM

excellent guide, pointed dish due south, set elevation on motor , inputed long/lat, press for a channel n 28.2 and dish moved and showed channel without any adjustments excellent,

one question in my my dm800 when i click ON satellites

current transponder
astra 2A/2B/2D/EUROBIRD (28.2E) - SERVICES
astra 2A/2B/2D/EUROBIRD (28.2E) - PROVIDERS
