I live in Nicosia/Cyprus and after all this mess with the transponders I am trying to get Sky 3d Deuchland  19.2 which is on 11332H with no success. My 500hd shows 0db which means the signal is very weak. I used to get this on the previous transponder but now nothing. My dish is 2m. I tried several  times to lock the transponder with no success.

 

Is this transponder so weak, do I need a bigger dish, is there a way that I can boost my signal?

This transponder on Astra 1L has a footprint that clearly doesn't include Cyprus: https://sat.ses.com/.../images/7407051 so it shouldn't be a surprise really...

 

I guess SKY Germany doesn't expect it's customers to be just in front of the Lebanon coast  :D

I guest you are right but I can lock most of the transponders involving Sky De. I guess the new transponders signal is very week.

The footprint shows that if you have 120cm dish you will receive the signal outside Cyprus. My dish is 200cm. I do not now how much bigger dish I will need!!!

The problem is not that the signal is "too weak". The problem is that the footprint of this transponder is smaller and very probably more "concentrated" to central europe. This will probably mean that if you buy a dish the size of a house, you'll still have no reception.
