[QUOTE="Rvator, post: 1117365, member: 402382"] Hello again folks Just to update you all that continue to use the MagicSat 2002a. After Covid restrictions we had our first trip in May and found that the dish locked successfully onto the last used alignment which was in the marina and still tuned UK stations but out on the cruise and re aligning at a different location it located Astra 28.2 East but only tuned EU stations. Suspected a changed frequency. Have just returned from another visit and implemented a frequency change. Reference my post #185 with following criteria:- Frequency: Polarity: Signal: Mode: 10714 H Y D 10758 V Y D 10773 H Y D 10788 V Y D A check of FlySat.com revealed that 10758 appears to have ceased to be active so the criteria used now has changed to the following:- Frequency: Polarity: Signal: Mode: 10714 H Y D 10773 H Y D 10788 V Y D 10803 H Y D The dish successfully located Astra 28.2 East and tuned UK stations. If there are any other users of the MagicSat 2002a still out there keep the faith. Brgds Rvator As a post script 10803 which is horizontal polarity was used although 10818 which is vertical polarity probably would also be okay. [/QUOTE]
