[QUOTE="PoloMint, post: 14197, member: 175235"] Sky1 is on one of the weakest 2B North transponders, so for southern areas it is often the first to go. Hopefully when Sky1 Extra/Hits/Plus/Whatever launches it will be on another transponder! What receiver and LNB do you have (and what are your neighbours)? The Panasonic 30 is by far the best for fringe areas so if he has that and you have a poorer one he has another advantage over you. Also how close the person that can receive it? If they were further east (20 KM or so) they would also be further north and so slightly further inside the 2B North footprint. So they would have a stronger signal in the first place. I know it doesn’t sound much but right on the edge the slightest difference is important. [/QUOTE]
