Hey everyone.
This forum is an interesting read and Ive decided to sign up to get your help!!!
I have lived in Belgium for 8 years and previously I have had someone come out and set my Sky up, works flawlessly because the footprints still good for my location (Normally)
I now live in an area called Keerbergen, my dish is not possible to be mounted on the home so its sitting on a tripod, low to the floor, or higher (what do you recommend?)
I have the usual cheap WS-6906 sat finder but its proving difficult to find Astra 2F 2G etc etc??
my question is, after using sattelitepointer etc to see where it should be facing etc etc, I can pick up the German, italian, spans, hebrew etc etc... which tells me the WS6906 is seeing a frequency from another sat (19E?) and saying its 2F on the screen. does that mean I need to go more left or more right??
To make it a bit more simple for me, I want to add a channel into the WS6906 from SKY, like.... sky 998 channel or sky newsUK? ITV? then when I see the video on the satlink, I know I will be pointing at the right satellite finally! Can I do that? is that a easier solution to know where I am pointing.
Also a separate question, I understand the SKY box will just throw a "no signal" if your not on the satellite, even if your MM out its a nightmare of a box... Which satellite boots the Sky box from? 2F, 2G?? or all of them?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.. I speak the language fluently here, but I just want a bit of my English telly back! good old ITV and other binge channels.
Thanks and great site full of contribution! Have a nice day.
