Lost reception of ITV1 Mer SE (Meridian South East) from Sky box Other Channels in Valencia
Originally posted at : http://www.satandpcguy.com/forum
If you access ITV1 via other channels, and use ITV1 Meridian South East (Mer SE), then you will find that you are getting a "no satellite signal is being received" message.
This is because ITV1 Meridian South East (Mer SE) have changed frequencies.
ITV1 Meridian South East (Mer SE) is no longer on freqency 12402 v 27.5 2/3.
ITV1 Meridian South East (Mer SE) new frequency is 10891 H 22.0 5/6.
ITV1 Meridian South East (Mer SE) new frequency is on the Astra 1N satellite. This has also meant that ITV1 Meridian South East (Mer SE) is now free to air, and no longer requires a Sky card to view.
It is expected that a few other ITV1 regions on frequency 12402 v, that require a Sky card to view, may also move to other frequiencies on Astra 1N in the coming weeks.

Loss of UK TV channels for 10 minutes in the mornings on Sky and Freesat in Valencia

If you are losing BBC and ITV in the morning for a few minutes from 10am to 11am then this is normal.
It is a solar outage.
We are at time of the year when the sun is directly behine the UK TV Astra 2 satellites.
The suns energy swamps the signals used for UK TV in Spain.
As these signals are already weaker and hard to receive in Spain, as the sun passes behind the satellites, you can lose reception of BBC and ITV channels for a small number of minutes.
This happens twice a year, in March and October time.

BBC, ITV, C4, Five channels available with no subscription on smaller satellite dishes in Valencia from today
Recent changes (as posted here) made by the UK TV broadcasters and Astra (the satellite operator), mean that you can now receive
BBC1, BBC2, BBC3, BBC4, Cbeebie, CBBC, BBC News, BBC1 HD, BBC HD, ITV1, ITV1HD, ITV2, ITV3, ITV4, Channel 4, Channel 4 HD, More 4, E4, Film 4, Five, Five USA and Five
for free, with no subscription, on a smaller satellite dish than previously required in Spain, the Costa Blanca, and the Communidad Valencia.
In some areas in Communidad Valencia an 80cm satellite dish is big enough to receive these channels.
In other areas a larger 1m satellite dish is required.
It may be that your current satellite dish is big enough to receive these channels for free, but it may need realignment or a better quality LNB.
The availability of these channels on smaller satellite dishes is temporary, possibly only to the end of this year, when a new satellite is launched, which may change reception.
We can perform dish realignments from 30euros, supply stronger LNBs (LNBs from 15 Euros), or install a 1m dish for 125 Euros.

BBC TV Channel changes - better reception of BBC TV in Valencia likely
Origianlly posted at: http://www.satandpcguy.com/forum/sho...-February-2012
The BBC channels, BBC1, BB2, BBC3, BBC4, BBC1HD, BBCHD, CBBC, CBeebies, will be moving from Astra 2D to Astra 1N this coming Friday.
There will be no change of frequencies.
The BBC channels will be using the same frequencies as they currently do.
However, this will mean that reception of these BBC channels in Spain will be much better than currently.
In some areas, they should be able to be received on a small 80cm or 1m satellte dish, where are previously they may not have been available even on a 2.4m satellite dish.
If you are unable to receive these channels, then no reception of these channels may require dish realignment, a new LNB or a larger satellite dish - such as a 1m satellite dish.
This follows the recent move of the ITV and channel 4 group of channels to Astra 1N in the last few weeks.
