Thanks for that. Mtv russia is still listed in wotsat, not updated so good.
I have 16e, but i dont think i have ever tryed 26e. In wotsat for the uk in the south its listed as 90cm and north 120cm, if thats the case i would not get it on my 88cm. Is anyone in ireland able to revieve all on 26e and on what size dish.

I can receive 26 east in Donegal with a 100cm dish. Its one of the best sats for fta stuff with films, documentaries and television series in English on the MBC channels. You can also get one Aljazeera sport channel fta ( which shows a Brazilian league game fta every sunday amongst other sports) , two sd abu dhabi sports channels and a hd abu dhabi sport channel as well as two bahrain sports channels.

I will have a go on my 88cm and see, I'm upgrading to a 1m gibertini soon, so hopefully i will pick it up. I'll report back today on how i get on.

I had a go and its a bit confusing as the same frequencys are on 23.5 and 28e i cant seem to lock onto it only these 2.

[Adam_UK]

When I do scan on 26E on my dreambox (fixed LNBs) the signal won't lock but I ignore that and just wait and it'll pick all badr4 channels, there is badr5 on 26E but i can't get any channel of it.

When i use (go to) in the motorized menu in my technomate, it moves to i think 19.2e, i know this because of the channels its scanning. Every other sat i have used the go to function on it has moved to. When i move the dish manualy i cant seem to lock on to it. When i looked for the footprint of badr 26e it gives a 90cm for where i am.
