      So you were set up on 3 sats correct,
      Check your LNB settings are correct,
      Check or try new cable,
      Check all connections
      Bypass disesq switch as this could be faulty
      Your signal on hotbird should be very good with a 60cm dish or above

      If you tried locking on to hotbird on a single LNB set up did you adjust your box LNB settings,
      And did you bypass the dis esq switch if you did then it must be your cable or poor connections or even a dodgey tuner in your box

          Hi Mate if you look at my post with the Zone 2 on the chimney i have the same bracket and mine works so its not a bracket problem its an alignment one.

                    Hi. Very simple really. The LNB for 28.2 needs to be slightly lower than the other two. The signals for 28.2 hit the dishes at a lower level than the others. Also have you enough room on the dish to pick up 28.2 ie are you far enough east to see 28.2..
                    Regards,

                        from behind the dish using the 19.2e sat as primary focus the [email protected] lnb needs to be higher and on the right of the center lnb and the hotbird@13east needs to be lower and on the left of the center lnb.. also ajust the skew for maximum signal and also ajust the focal length (lnb closer/further away in lnb holder) for max signal. use 11,.222.h.27500 to peak astra2 and 10.723.h.29900/11.034v.27500 on hotbird13east. regards mdt

                                Something is definitely wrong if you cant pick up ITV HD the Granada and london regional's are on 2F at the moment which with the power its churning out you could easily pick these up on a jam jar lid literally, Well not that small but down to around 25cm at least
