Silly question no. 553
If you don't have a receiver, how do you know its working?

All I can go by is my Sat Finder. According to that I have a signal.
It doesn't tell you what satellite you're on though, but looking at
the neighbours dish, it's pointing the same way.


Don't worry Marky. It's likely correct, or near
enough so ..you'll twiddle when your Panny arrives
(..cheaper than some of the 'pro' sat finder boxes)..!

If your piccies are upside down and jump about a
bit when you first switch it all on, then you're
probably getting something from Australia ..or a
reflection from Tau Centauri, or something..

Just sit on yer head ..or turn the Panny upside
down, remembering to chain it to the floor; that'll
fix things for a while...

;))

Seriously ..hope it goes well ..I'm guessing you'll
be really happy with the results when you do finally
get them :))

You may jest but...
....a few weeks ago I was attending an IT course and during an
idle moment I noticed that the graphics card on my machine had
an option for inverting the image. For a laugh I clicked it, then
got completely disorientated, and could only correct it by
turning the monitor upside down. The guys still rib my about it.

You should have used the mouse on the underside of the table.
