Apologies if im driving everyone mad with all these questions but would like to know if its possible to receive anything from this bird @ 11 west in the UK with 1.2 meter dish & Technomate 9100

If so, can someone post best frequency etc to locate it as its the only one i havent been able to find or locate yet:respect-048:

Check the footprint in the Beam column on lyngsat. It says the signal in the UK is 38dBW needing a 1.8 to 2.3 metre dish.

Yes it's receivable, although not too much on 11W. I get good signal from 2 frequencies with a 1.2m dish, think the footprints cover the UK a bit more than they make out! Frequencies to try are 11516V 7780 5/6 (3 channels, all BISS encrypted) and 11523V 2712 1/2 for Mediterraneo Sat 1 which is FTA.

All that I have found from that bird is Channel 11 (fta) on 11524V, 2712, with a 1m dish in east anglia.
And of course 3 encrypted channels ( ATV BL, RTRS, FTV) on 11516V, 7780.

Thats all there is to find on this bird, apart from a few feeds that is.
