Got out there again and here is where I am now. I can't receive anything from the transponders lower than 11222. I also cannot et 11856. The rest of them come in with at least 60% quality, with most being between 70% and 90%. I am able to see many of the channels, but none of the main BBC or ITV channels.

Basically you are missing all of Astra 2D then. 11856V is an HD transponder, I don't seem to be able to get good quality on any of the HD transponders, so it probably needs an HD box to get a lock.

At this point I'm not worried about HD, and it seems 2D is what I want. Yep, looks like this is about dish size. I'm going to have to figure out a way to get the 120 I guess...

Thanks again to everyone!

Winner winner, we have a winner. I went with the 105cm dish and I now have the BBC/ITV channels at around 70% quality. The channels that aren't on Astra 2D are between 80 and 99% and 19.2 ranges between 85 and 99% quality. This definitely took a lot more work than the smaller dish to put up, but it was worth it. A big thanks to everyone who helped!

Well done timhan:-handclap

So the 105cm Gibertini paid off. Good news.
