Hi!

I am unable to add a new satelite config. to my seatel 98 series. I have been reading the instructions where there are several preconfigured satelites:

Dish65 Dish Network @ 65W
ExpV91 Bell ExpressVu @ 91W
GLA 95 Galaxy Latin America @ 95W (DirecTV Latin America)
DTV101 DirecTV @ 101W
Dsh110 Dish Network @ 110W
Dsh119 Dish Network @ 119W
Dsh148 Dish Network @ 148W
HtBd13 Hot Bird @ 13E
Astr19 Astra @ 19E
Astr28 Astra @ 28E

But I dont understand how to add my own. I woud like to use Thor at 1W.

Any help is grately appreciated!

You can modify any of the first 7 unless the boat goes to American waters. None of them are available in Europe.

Thank you for the quick reply.

I tried, but there are not many values I can modify.

I can change NID, H freq, V freq, elevation and polarization.

What about position, symbolrate and so on?

I have been reading almost anything I could find for 2 days now.

A lot of people seem to have a more advanced control panel where they can input symbolrate and so on. But I cant and dont understand why...

Does anybody know the correct settings on the set-top box for a system like this?

Right now I have "universal lnb" and lnb power on. There are some tone settings, but I dont know if these are needed?

I spoke to Seatel in UK today. These systems aparantly just search the whole sky (on the given elevation) and idenity the bird on NID.

That could be a very lengthy process and how does it compensate for the arc of the Clarke curve?
