Mike Williams: Just to add to MikeP above.
The satellites are all in the same orbital position, but some have a "UK beam" which is harder to receive outside the target area.
So, what you need is not to reposition the dish, but to get a much larger dish. Depending on where you are, you might need a 2 meter dish - or larger.
