[QUOTE="MaxMayhem, post: 641455, member: 333520"] Thanks Tivu for the advice, it is something that on occassion I am likely to do but for this I have always made sure to save my settings! I have checked the footprints for North and South beams via the astra website the North beam has moved away from Corfu since August this year, whilst the South beam has got a lot stronger. This means that my 1.2 metre dish will no longer receive ITV and Ch 4 off the North beam but should have no problem getting them off the South, if indeed they do have a South beam frequency!!!! I do know that the new Ch 5 frequencies are on the South beam and we are receiving them perfectly, along with the new ITV+1 fequencies, even though they have given up on testing these!!! I have also checked with Astra the status of my default frequency and they say that the one I have is for the North beam, so I'm finding the whole thing very confusing! Could I improve my chances of getting a better signal by moving my dish fraction perhaps? Mark [/QUOTE]
