My System: FS-4200 Digital Satellite Receiver and a 60cm dish. |
I recently invested in a FS-4200 Digital Satellite Receiver and a 60cm dish for receiving free view French channels. I was able to tune into the signals from Atlantic Bird 3 for France 2, France 3, France 5, LCP and Arte but it is all scrambled! What do I need to do to unscramble these channels? I am a new comer to the interesting world of satellites and digital receivers - please help.  | ||

_http://www.lyngsat.com/ab3.html There are two sets 11591 V FTA in digital on super beam 12564 V (France 2) and 12606 V (France 5 and Arte) in PAL on super beam. If you can't open them, then you are probably looking at the PAL set (need analogue receiver), although I doubt if a digital receiver can show PAL encrypted channels in their channels list. Let us know the frequencies of the unscrambled channels. Try to scan for 11591 V with SR=20000 FEC=2/3 (if the receiver didn't catch them in your last scan). Another possibility is that the digital channels are encrypted and that Lyngsat is not updated. | |||

My System: Zone1, DSI8215 SkyHD, Thomson DSI4214, TF5000CI, Dreambox DM800 HD PVR - Nab BH0.12, TM-5200D, Gibertini 104cm, SNH-031, 36v Actuator, Vbox-II, 42°E to 30°W, Sling Media, Televes H45 Digital Processing Analyser, Satlook Micro+G2 NIT, Rover SDM 1s | I can second that. Lyngsat is not that up to date to be fair. If you look at flysat, you will clearly see the info there  Although, have checked again and it shows them clear on 11591 V tp KB4, must of missed them | ||
