Your 11300 LNB will only work with the Setting 11300<br /><br />You need a different LNB called a Universal one 9750 / 10600 to get most of the stuff off I701 <br /><br />Also a 65cm might be abit to small for Melbourne to get I701<br /><br />There is some French TV and Radio on there and EWTN FTA <br /><br /> http://www.lyngsat.com/i701.html <br /><br />We only get in Australia the New Caledonia Beam

I do not live far from Greenvale and I can tell you a 70cm may not even get you a signal at all here in Melbourne, you will need a 120cm to get stronger signals that do not go out when the sky is overcast.

I am using a 90cm for I701 in Melbourne and not far from Greenvale in the north of Melbourne and picking up all of the French TV.

Brisbane I would use a 90CM + mainly because of the rain factor.
