[QUOTE="uk-expat, post: 841290, member: 393053"] After weeks of daytime-only reception from 2F I decided on Sunday to check my dish alignment. I could see that nothing had been disturbed by weather; the deterioration of reception since March would seem to be the result of factors already aired in this forum (like slight satellite re-focus or reduction of power). However, by raising the mounting bracket of my 1.05 m dish by 30 cm (and thereby better clearing neighbouring roofline obstructions) I have been able to restore acceptable behavior - Error-free reception day & night on all the 5's, 4Seven and Ch4HD - Error-free reception on BBC One HD Scotland/Wales except between 8 p.m. and midnight (for whatever reason) If it doesn't deteriorate from that I will hold back on moving up to a 120 cm dish until I know where I stand after the mainstream BBC channels migrate to 2F or another satellite with a vicious UK spot beam.
