[QUOTE="picobird, post: 1160734, member: 420216"] The signals are starting to break up a bit but I am not going to touch the dish just yet. During the past two weeks I have picked up Hispasat (yet again) on a decent sized dish compared to my mini Hispasat dish. The extra FTA channels are brilliant with several free ‘film channels’. Tuning to Hispasat takes about a minute with my painted markers on the ground. Should these cloudy conditions persist I will tune into the other dish as I enjoy the Spanish language & Spanish channels. We had a packet of rain this morning (thankfully) but we are headed into six months plus of clear skies now ( in central Portugal). At least I can continue with a Vodafone.pt data sim for internet use (about €1 day) & forget about cheap satellite internet as my dish picks up BBC satback again. Thanks to all the advice regarding ‘locations’ from other posters. What seemed to be a ‘closed chapter’ is going onto ‘better times’. The signal is getting better (very clear) so there is a bit of ‘iffy’ with Telstar compared to the ‘cast iron‘ Intelsat 901. [/QUOTE]
