i assume you are trying for the football from albania your dish might need tweaking i had the same problem last week got a sat man in with his meter and i have 16 east and are watching liverpool v everton at the moment it is difficult to set it up on your own without the meter i have a 1m dish

16E is one of the weaker sats at the moment(I think they are trying to replace it but they keep going wrong)none the less you should be able to get it but your dish needs to be spot on for alignment send it to 16E with usals then switch to diseqc1.2 and step drive E/W to try and get it if this is not successfull your dish elevation may be slightly out so go to either 1W or 5W (your long is about 3W I think) as your target sat and re-align both the dish elevation and the L/R of the whole assembly carefully again.Its well worth getting 16E its one of my favorite sats for english language films.
