    95% signal but no picture

    On 7w and 4w i have locked these satellites with signal level of over 95% both, but i cant get picture on even FTA channels.

    Im after showtime on 7w and some other footy channels on 4w.

    Is this normal?

        nope dude, you have locked onto 8west and 5 west. You will not get showtime in the Northwest unless your dish is over 2m large.

        Read the Rules here; they apply to Everyone.

          You were told then that you will not get Showtime channels on a 90cms dish in the Midlands and that you would need a dish in excess of 2m..
