Satellite dish reset needed

    I've done a really stupid thing! Plugged in a second receiver which changed the angle of my dish and knocked out Astra 2 reception. Couldn't get it back so manually moved the dish - yes, I know it was stupid but maybe not as stupid as admitting to it.

    Question is - any satellite expert in Dublin 6 area able to call to fix the problem on Wednesday during the day? But more importantly, explain to me how to change receivers without this happening again.

    Thanks in advance

    Not a great idea to put your phone number up on the internet

    You could buy a inexpenive satellite finder in Maplins & find the satellite your self with the help of a friend!

    Thanks for the tips. Too busy to do it myself so I have contacted someone to come and sort it. I just hope they can advise me so that I don't do the same thing again!
