problem picking up Astra 2 (1 Viewer)

[Edenside]

We are in France and up to a few days ago my Oyster dish had no problem picking up Astra 2. We were then on a site where reception would be bad and it could not pick anything up. Have since moved to an area where I previously could get a signal but cannot get Astra 2. can get Astra 1 and Hotbird so I am wondering if Astra 2 has moved in the last few days. Anyone else got a similar problem.

We are still in UK nothing has changed here apart from picture breaking up last night due to bad weather but all is well now.

The footprint for Astra 2 has changed in the last year or so, it depends how far you have moved and where to and also how long ago last time you had no problem. I believe Astra1 and Hotbird have a larger footprint.

All Three Astra 2 satellites are where they have been since they launched...they have not moved.
And all three satellites have two beams, a UK beam, centred on the UK whose reception can be tricky the further south in Europe you go, and a European beam whose reception is nice over most of western Europe. So you should have no issues picking up those channels on the European beam.
