[QUOTE="BLUEPLATINUM, post: 93009, member: 176530"] These pictures are of my recently " professionally" installed system in Gran Canaria. We are 2,400 miles south of the official ASTRA 2D footprint, so as you can imagine getting it "right" is pretty crucial. So - what NOT to do: 1. Do not put the dish where there is a large metal object such as a high gain TV ariel and mast in line of site to the satellite. 2. Do not use single output LNB for SKY+ installation and never come back to change it. 3. Do not use 0.5db LNB designed for local CANAL+ service when a high performing LNB for fringe reception is needed. 4. Do not position dish so that it overhangs a neighbours property resulting in the dish having to be moved (but never bother to come back to move it). I will not name and shame the installer in this public forum, however anyone looking for an installer in Gran Canaria should pm me for advice!! [/QUOTE]
