if trees blocking, see what raising your dish does get! blocked signal: new lnb will do nothing.
use dishpointer to check your lign of sight
obstacle calculator:Code:http://www.dishpointer.com/

thanx for quick reply
is the footprint just the dark blue colour in the middle or the whole teardrop ......thanx
on dish pointer?
showing green with me: big teardrop with dish inside?
in 1st field Your location: e.g. streetname, zip code, (lat, lon): give in your location: should see your house
in 2nd field select 1st All Satellites and then 39E
in options mark [v] show obstacle (line of sight checker)
drag teardrop to the location your dish is
the small dot (red) drag that to the three blocking your signal
if the to lines match signal could be blocked if height of tree matches
cheers for that ,looks like the trees are in the way ,never used that site before ,great site ,,,,,,thanx
See if relocating dish is a possibility to a more advantageous place on your location? Usually use of this https://www.satpimps.co.uk/images/st...ost_thanks.gif is the way done in forums. Hope there is a solution for your location.
