              thank you for this - I am migrating away from Sky and the first question is which dish to get. At least now I have the size sorted, now onto motors/multiple dishes etc.

                          Try adding in the transponder 1st before trying to find the satellite.

                          11387V 30000

                          Then search for 10 east using that frequency.

                          You should pick it up.

                          Go to hotbird & then work back westwards slowly & a touch at a time, & you should get it on.
