"Many of the Eutelsat W2 channels are quite low power compared to 13E or 19E.. You shouldnt have too many problems with 10972V 27500 2/3.

You may well struggle with 11010V - it sufferes interference from 11009V on 19E analogue!
The same applies to 11021H - suffers from 11023H analogue"

I have tried the above and 10956 h 2821 2/3
10962 h 3146 3/4
1101 v 27500 3/4
but nothing on any of them... am I doing something wrong here is what I am doing,

menu 6-6-1
number 3 being 10972
number 4 being v
number 5 being 27500
number 6 being 2/3

then back to number 3 and enter and the blue signal is way low say 5%
is my 88cm too small?
Lets be logic, whats best then to continue with this sat or to try 5 or 7* if they offer more power ?
 
Hmm strange. I would have thought 10972V is more than strong enough to be had on your 88cm dish (although I have to admit Ive got my 1m dish on 16E at the moment).

If you want to try 5E use the Ukrainian channels on 11766 H 27500 3/4 as they are about the strongest.

Try this oneto start with:

11304 V 30000 3/4
 
hi mrminibus,



i use to have an 88cm triax on 16e for digi albsat and my reckoning is try for
11513v28800
11554v 30000
12568h 3703 (sic)


i think you should get something from where you are at, i used to get roughly between 75% to 85% for the albsat, it used to fluctuate a bit, up and down a bit etc! For the other frequencys i mentioned i found them stable at 83% to a 89% speaking from hartlepool in the north east uk. otherwise if you still cant get nothing what about 1mtr dish, but really you should get something.


regards john
 
what am I doing wrong!
I have tried both of them and I get the same.... nothing!
I get channel 6 with english as the only audio
and espn classic with english, german and polish audio, am I on 5* ?
I have 80% stength and 90% quality on channel 6 which would make me think if the frequency you gave me is strong I should get it with ease...????
 
@john thanx for your input but the outcome was the same...
no signal, I must say though that on menu 6-6-1 on the signals I do get its very irratic say 50% signal and the a 10th of a second later no signal and then back to 50% maybe the dish just isn't big enough for 16*....
 
Right I am still having no luck with finding channels.
I have and can watch channel 6-yet if I do a menu 6-6-1 and enter12111 H
MPEG-2
27500 5/6
It tells me that my signal is like non existant but yet I know I have a good signal because if I exit and put channel 6 on I can watch it perfect with the top bar at about 80% and the bottom at 90%....
Has anyone got any ideas as to where I should go from here, apart from the pub :)
 
is anyone else reading this????
I would like to install a pc processor fan in my 30000 where do i take the feed rom and should i switch it ? any advice?
 
After inputting frequency, polarization, symbol rate,fec. Confirm settings by pressing ok button. Message confirming selections will appear.Press ok again then press blue button to scan.

Hi Analoguesat I've got a 3600Ip viaccess embedded and I got it second hand about 5 years ago and not had a single problem(fingers crossed)I use it to drive my channel master and no probs either.Also got dragon cam but the guy who used to prog it for me has gone so I bought cas 3+ and Trex cam but having probs downloading info into cam(thats another story )Goodpiece of kit:-worship
 
I have this receiver, anyone know how i can get the channel changes a little faster?
 
ANY WHO HAS PROBLEMS ADDING TRANSPONDERS

if u get the problem wheen u goto add transponder then u put all the info in and press ok but nothing happens do this:

Goto the Edit menu
Edit Transponder
Delete any empty Transpoders by press red twice on the empty ones
Press blue
Add the Transpoder that u wanna add.

DONE! :)

Later S/W updates (v.800 onwards) improved speed a little.

Hi colinp - catching up with the news as Ive been away for a couple of weeks. The 3600 is the later version of the 3000 and should be a cracking piece of kit too. :)

Remember the receiver is a 6 or 7 year old design so if it changes channel in under 2 seconds its doing well!! Upgrade to the latest software version (on the Echostar site) and hope it improves it a bit.
 
i have ESCIAP1100 is that the fastest one?
 
ok, the background is so annoying and also the bar that goes across when u go on a channel is very outdated
 
The whole receiver is 6-7 years outdated, so what do you expect??

Echostar have abandoned support for the receiver so there wont be any more updates. Im afraid its a case of live with it or buy a newer receiver.....
 
Still excellent for driving 36V motors though.

Limited choice now for positioner- equipped STBs. Diseqc controlled motors? No thanks, not with my dish O-no

So what are you saying that you think the 36volt Echostar system is better than the Diseqc system, I ask this as the Echostar system is the only one I have ever used...
