All part of the fun hehe. :)

Next - have you flashed the latest patch for your receiver so that you can get the hacked channels? See the sticky threads.

Goto usals that will regain your positions.
The best sat for all is 1west.

thanks
Have lost signal looks like cable has come loose, also the system was set up in 1.2 not usals, will have to get ladder out to check cable, have had system working ok till down loaded channel list did not understand it would change system to usal and delete all positions. will check cable and then move dish through arc to save sat positions again.

Sh*t Happens

Thanks

if your pole is straight all the way around its easier using usals than it is diseqc1.2........but if you decide to try usals you'll need to find out your long/lat seetings by imputting your postcode in Worldwide map search, route finder and travel directions - powered by Multimap (http://www.multimap.com)
