My 60cm dish was an original Sky install and must be about 20 years old by now. ) Astra 1 comes in stronger than Hotbird, switch the monoblock back to the way it was in the holder, use Hotbird as the main satellite and Astra 1 as the offset then you will get all no problems, 2 'weaker' Hotbird frequencies to fine tune your Hotbird alignment are 11.565 H sr 27.500 fec 3/4 (smile of a child) and 11.054 H sr 27.500 fec 5/6 (zdf, rtl 2 ch, ebru tv) then have Astra 1 set a little higher to the 'centre' Hotbird and all will be fine. It was a little too windy yesterday evening for my liking but I managed to switch the feed horns over in the bracket and twizzle the Hotbird side a little lower than the Astra side - a full scan has yielded dozens of 'new' channels including the Italian ones I wanted! There are a few channels which are too pixelated to view but I'll try fine tuning before resigning myself to being just too tight to buy an 80cm dish or motorised system - thanks for the suggestions above but I'm trying to keep the budget low for the moment.
