    A couple of years ago I was able to scan in 107 channels.

    Either my dish needs to be tweaked (doesn't it always) or the footprint is less favourable now but getting nearly nothing for a long time since. The best tp if you want to try is 11430 V 27500, I am getting signal flickering up to 3 dB and I was able to scan in the channels a few months back.

    It would probably be best to line up on 8 West first. Some changes there recently so there are only two tp's, 11054 H 22000 and 11137 H 22000.

    Hi,
    Just wondering if have tweaked your dish to get any results from this sat since your last post?

    Also should this sat be able to be picked up in cork?

    Nothing at all now. But Satelliteman20 says he is getting reception with a 1.1 m dish, further south from me I think.

    In good weather I get quite a few transponders but the dish has to be spot on any rain and they go or if its overcast they break up the best time to try is at night I reckon a 1.2 metre channel master would give solid reception
