Im currently staying in
Taree and have had problems getting a satellite to watch tv.
When i turn it on everything performs like normal but it just searches than says cant find signal.
I have contacted Alden who told me to go on to youtube and watch how to recalibrate the system,which i did but still no signal.
As i live in
Adelaide the system when purchased worked perfectly,then i didnt use it for a couple of months and now we are on the big lap i cant get it to work.
Anybody who lives in the area can you let me know what satellite and zone you are currently on.
Cheers
Humpback

If you are trying to watch VAST or Foxtel you need to access satellites C1/D3. They are co-located so the angle details are the same. It does not matter what zone you are in, eg if you are registered for SA you can access that be it in
Adelaide,
Perth,
Cairns or anywhere in between.
If you have a clear view of the satellite, ie no trees etc in the way then my guess is a hardware 'fault' eg loose connection etc. To
check for obstructions use a satellite finder app on your phone and use the camera function to
check. Wikicamps has a very good sat finder function.
