Trust me, if it was a satelite problem i know about it first: As I'd have a phone call from Spain asking me how to fix the satelite...if it works ok over there, sure as hell it'll work over here 
Actually it works better than ever over there now since they've moved many channels onto Astra 1N during Feb 2012 (bigger footprint than the narrow beam transponder found on Astra 2D, so a much stronger signal in Europe)
Makes the giant 2.5 metre paella dish somewhat redundant now (as a 1 metre dish will do the job).

Pass
We have an old 1 metre dish still pointed at 19.2E and an old Grundig analogue reciever that could pick all the German stuff. But I'm planning on sticking a new LNB on it and pointing at 28.2E and getting rid of the giant 2.5 metre thing.
Shame really as "proper" Eurosport was far better than British Eurosport IMO

I don't own anything out there. But I do spend time out there as I have family there 
There are lots of self-acclaimed satellite experts out there on the costas advertising in the English paper/Mags, but only a portion of them are any good, hence why I'm always asked to fix it when it ***** up (hell, a £80 return flight isn't much more than a Sky call out charge ).
Its a similar deal with swimming pools, electrics, gas etc. (I have some cracking tales about a alledged "ex-corgi" registered plumber called Gary and an alledged sparky called Tom).
