    Channel Reception On One Meter Dish

    I have a dm 800 hd box with a motorised 1 meter dish I am using latest pli open source image.
    My problem is that I cannot pick up thor @ 1% west
    I can pick up the larger satellites but seem to have a problem with minor ones.
    I have maged to pick up badr @ 26% E but for some reason i am only getting about 50% of the available feeds.
    I am particularly interest in getting the sport channels on this satellite but i cannot pick them up.
    I have downloaded the sat files from http://satellites-xml.eu/ so i should have the relevant setting etc.
    Can anyone suggest a reason why this is happening or even better a solution to this problem.
    I THANK YOU ALL IN ANTICIPATION OF YOUR HELP

      You can only get Badr4 out of 26E with 1 m dish if you are in UK, you can't get Badr6 which has AD sports channels

            i have the same setup and have no problem with thor or badr.however i use a tm 6900 as i seem to receive more channels than with dm800.also you may need to fine tune your dish.good luck.

              I think that site doesn't have 1w in its database. Try downloading your settings elsewhere matte

                I use that site regularly and can 100% confirm it DOES have 1w

                  it has 0.8w but not 1w , try loading a settings file from addons , and you will get more channels on the 1w+0.8 sats
                  , i had this issue in past with that xml generater site mate ,
