Astra 1N @ 28E - about to go on air / on air!!

[Shrubsole]

Sky Box reachable yet?

No just tried it and it can't find it. I think it's because of the settings. You'll have to wait until/if/when Sky add it to the EPG as it can't be tuned in manually.

Sounds like the exact same procedure 4HD went through when switching on eurobird1

Looks like Sky HD people like me will have to wait for a while then...

Oh I love Event 2. I have the DVD box set.

Does that mean tonight us sky hd customers we'll find out if we have coverage or not? Sorry if a dumb question.

I had a software upgrade on my Samsung box the other day so we will see if something happens soon.

Hope you made sure you got the directors cut ;-)

@Beef: you will only find that out with your Skybox when Channel 4 tell BSkyB to remap the Skybox system to the new transponder. We dont know when that will happen, however it wont take that long if I read the signs correctly ...they are getting ready it seems. Usually the channel label changes from the SID to the proper name when the remapping takes place.

Still trying to pick this up C4HD on 1N in Toulouse with no joy. I have a Tevii S480 and I'm scanning using ProgDVB, but getting zero signal, which is very frustrating as my fellow expats in Costa Blanca are seeing this loud and clear.....ideas?

to be sure:

YOU ARE getting astra 2 A,B, D (on this LNB input)?

You are using the correct parameters?

You are using HD compatible receiver/software?

I don t see the channel 4 HD in astra 1n.I using dm 500 hd and 11127 v 22000 2/3 dvb2 0 signal

you need an hd capable receiver/box/software must be possible to switch to 8PSK

parameters are:

11.127 V DVB-S2 2/3 (some boxes only work with auto(matic) here) 8PSK Pilot: ON
Must be able to get 28.2 E (Astra 2A,B,D EB1) thus no trees or high buildings south near dish

Make sure your parameters follow the screenshot.
