[QUOTE="SwissBuster, post: 520231, member: 290639"] I've got a Technisat Multytenne (4 LNBs, small 45cm dish) with a Technisat CIVA receiver. All is working well, with full BBC/ITV reception. I tried to find the new Channel 4 and More4 FTA programs last night without success. These are apparently at 10729Mhz 22000 V; I scanned this transponder manually but only find Film4; the signal strength is reported on the CIVA at about 5.0dB or approximately 50%, similar to most channels on 28.5E. A friend living nearby picked these channels up no problem using a PC with a DVB card. I don't understand if the receiver makes a difference to satellite reception or if everything is a result solely of the dish size/alignment. Can some expert educate me here? For my particular issue, could it be that the signal is just too weak to register the channel? If so, why is Film 4 on the same frequency OK? Or am I doing something wrong when scanning for new channels? Thanks to all for your help. [/QUOTE]
