Hi I live in Portugal and can not get BBC, ITV, Channel 4 or Channel 5 on 28.2 despite having a 1.3 metre dish.
The reason is that these channels moved to a different satellite and the signal can not be received anywhere south of Northern France.
If you do a search on 28.2 you will find lots of discussion about it.
I believe that you can get these channels if you point the dish to 27.5 W but I can not move it as there is a house in the way.
If you do a search on 27.5 you will see lots of discussion on it.
