NOTE: Now H=L & V=R

Ka-Band project shelved for now as no signal at all on 9°E, where I was hoping to catch RTE2 HD. Heard that its no longer receivable down the road in Blackburn as well.

C-Band looks like anything above 37db on 14°W to 55°E and I have a chance of getting a signal lock on 1.06m.

Have you got the polarisation position of the LNB set correctly (ie not 90° out)?
Have you the correct usage (or not) of the dielectic plate? Again this can be 90° out if not installed correctly (if needed).
Have you the conical scalar ring attachment (not the standard flat one for prime focus dish)?
Have you tried adjusting the focal length position?

I started with 20E, the dielectric plate needs to be in for most everything in Europe. The LNBF has two sets of grooves, pick the position that puts the plate between the two probes

40E also a good one or 5W also reasonably easy.

Scalar rings need to be almost flush with the end of the feed as well for a smaller antenna I believe.
