i have a dragon cam on order but what else do i need to view incrited channels or where i can get card for it pm would be great

Lancelot

The technomate when patched will give you the same as a Dragon cam will.
The Digitalb package is in conax and on 16E, but you will need to purchase a card for it from a supplier. As mentioned conax packages are secure for the moment.

UniversalSAtelliteLocatingSystem is an extension of the DigitalsatelliteeqquipmentControl system, but requires a compatible motor and receiver, there is little difference between the two once you have the satellites set up.

right just gone to lyngsat to check if channels match what ive got depending on satelite and my dish is lined up to thor wich i think its thor but pick up all channels on hispasat . how do i know i got right satelite.

have i lined up to hispasat on my thor channels by mistake

rolfw

If you are scanning channels which are to be found on Hispasat and you can actually view them, then your dish is pointing at Hispasat. The quickest way to check a satellite, is to scan a predetermined transponder with FTA channels and look to see if the scan finds them.

bit confused on tachomate ive set it to thor but picking up hispasat channels on what i think is thor . how do i know if i am focusing on the right sat. or will the receiver scan a satelite weather it is the sat i am looking for ie there is no way of finding what sat i am looking at. or should i jusy nudge my sat 30 deg east
