46E (Azerspace 1)

Sorry, Martin, I know it's confusing. I have two systems based at two different locations. The Vu+ Uno is in my flat and attached to the Penta 85cm dish which has a view of between 15W to 72E. The Uno will not give your either the SNR% or SNR dB reading UNTIL it has a lock, which is very frustrating.

The screenshot that you linked to above, is from another set up at my parents to which I connect via Vulkano (same as Slingbox). It consists of the Dr HD F15 receiver - considered to be the best receiver by many for feed hunting due to sensitive tuner and a built in spectrum analyser (though I don't get on well with the latter) and is attached to the 1.2m Fibo Gregorian dish. This will give you a dB reading no matter whether it has a lock or not. Sadly, I cannot check 46E on this set up as the eastern limit of the dish is around 42E. I can lock some transponders on 45E but due to trees, it's not watchable.
 
ok ive got you now c/j, sounds like a nice setup that :-), just a thought is there no spectrum analyser plugin for this box i have seen them for other boxes.
 
Anyone getting 11135H atm? My dish got knocked by a workman.

It's not active now .
 
11135H it's reactive again with strong signal at 16 db at my region .
 
11135 H has become 11125 H. :)
It probably locks anyway with 10000 symbolrate.

This time Crazyscan reports ACM/VCM, so anything "visual" will probably not come on this one.

Interesting - having edited the tp to 11125 its still coming in on the F3 even though its ACM/VCM
 
not sure if its the time of the day are tp change but i am getting 50/51% on 11125 its the strongest signal i have had.
 
This one carries data and a NIT with some interesting information :D

Umm 13925H 10000 has scanned onto my F3! No signal though.Too tired to work it out - is there an offset frequency to trick the box into actually getting this one on a standard lnb?
 
Today different again: 11129 H 20000 3/5. Still ACM/VCM.
 
Tried for this today but no joy. I have been thinking all winter about how to sneak up another dish past SWMBO. :-deadhorse
It sure would have come in handy today. I need at least another 1m here!
 
It says he has a TBS5925 card in his computer so I guess the NIT data comes from whatever program he is using. I use Transedit which comes with DVB Viewer to get basic NIT data.
 
Decent signal here on 10973H. Possibly 10975, just changed my Black Ultra LNBF to a Invacom C120 and CM Feedhorn on the Gibby 1.25, giving me a little extra dB, but I reckon the LO is a bit awry.

Its helpful to know the CM and Invacom squeeze a bit more signal out of the dish.

Hopefully the LO will be constant and not turn out to be drifty!
