[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 722375, member: 323322"] What size dish are you using? Astra 2D (most BBC, ITV etc) in Malta requires something around (or over) the 2m mark. But, if you do have a big enough dish, then it may be an alignment issue as some of your problem Channels are from Eurobird at 28.5E. The Channels are spread across Astra 2 at 28.2E and Eurobird at 28.5E. Of the Astra birds, 2D is focussed on the UK and needs a big dish in many parts of Europe (If it can be received at all). Big dish = narrow beamwidth, so a big dish aligned to 28.2E may struggle with 28.5E. [/QUOTE]
