[QUOTE="Xenoman, post: 879115, member: 298834"] Okay - I have sorted the problem now. I ended up turning the dish on it's own mount (not the rotator) a couple of degrees back West. Remember I had to turn it a couple of degrees East of it's own setting, to receive the best signal from Astra 1 - which got me all the UK TV channels. So the situation is that I need to have two settings for the 19.2E satellite if I want to receive both German and UK stations from the one satellite. However, rather than messing about like that, I just saved the bearing for the German channels, which also got me the German and other Euro channels from 23.5E and Astra 3, and use Astra 2 at 28.2E for all the UK stations. So now I have everything I want, and was able to watch the F1 practice sessions on Sport 1, although having to put up with the awful commentary is a negative - but it's a price I'm willing to pay! :-whipb [/QUOTE]
