[QUOTE="PoloMint, post: 23234, member: 175235"] The wonderful thing about satellites is that if you have a go yourself and can’t find the satellite/signals you want, provided you don’t drop the dish or fall off a ladder you haven’t wasted or damaged anything except a few hours. I would certainly also recommend trying it yourself, if installers where you are are anything like some of the ones at home in Spain (and they certainly sound like it) then they won’t be any better than that a keen novice with patience. In fact in many cases they are worse. There are dozens of ‘how to guides’ for satellite installs without meters or with only the digibox meter, but this one [url]http://homepage.ntlworld.com/de.sullivan/[/url] seems to be very popular. Okey it’s simplistic and written for a minidish in a caravan but the principles (which you probably already know anyway) are the same. It won’t help you offsetting the second LNB but once you find one signal you will have the confidence/knowledge to experiment. Hope this helps and good luck. [/QUOTE]
