[QUOTE="leecovuk, post: 97382, member: 190240"] i seem to be working this out; I decided to delete all the transponders shown in my pixx and then use the lyngsat charts to decide what I wanted to look for. I then found I could successfully set up a new transponder with the relevant settings and search to find all the listed channels there. I can only assume that before when I tried this or a manual frequency search, the pixx must have thought 'no, I don't recognise that frequency' or 'I've already been there'.... or something ... I haven't consciously used NIT for my latest successes, although I noticed earlier when sweep searching with NIT that the transponder total often increased, presumably when the NIT data was detected. It was just weird that this process seemed to fail to find other channels I knew I could receive from earlier sweep searches. I then seemed to get into the trap I described earlier where manual searches to bring those missing ones back wasn't working out. Still haven't got my head around the use and purpose of the PID and similar settings, but looks like I don't need to. [/QUOTE]
