dragon Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 This has all probably been covered before but i have searched and can't find an answer.I am based on the Sarthe/ Normandy border.I know my equipment will receive BBC1 , 2, ITV etc. because the previous owner left the decoder and satellite when he sold me the house, but i can only get BBC world news and SKY Int news. I am tuned into Astra 2 at about 90% signal, have i not got a strong enough signal or am i a tuned into the wrong satellite? Along with loads of other satellites i notice Astra 1D is an option.

Clair Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Your dish may not be pointing to Astra 2 (28.2deg).Some info here: http://www.completefrance.com/cs/forums/1394293/showPost.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicandJo Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Sounds like you're pointing at Astra 1 not 2.Look at www.ses-astra.com go to international English page and open the installation assistant. It'll tell you exactly where to point the dish.Link updated by a mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
