hi all,
need some pointers on how to get my monoblock working with hotbird 13E and astra 19.2E
It's a DIY job 80cm dish with inverto 0.3dB monoblock pointing at hotbird for sure (not sure if it's working with astra atm)
I have replaced the receiver I had from Lidl (Silvercrest SL65) with technomate TM-1500CI+
basically on the silvercrest could only see hotbird channels around 900 of them and couldn’t see any astra channels , with the technomate I can't figure out how to make it use both feeds under astra it can find around 700 channels, under hotbird it can find around 300, if I use autoscan it complains that channels memory is full after doing astra and half of the transponders on hotbird.
The question is , how do i configure the LNB ? DISEqC 1.0, 1.1 or 1.2, according to the specs (http://www.ftacom.com/UploadImages/is2.jpg) it uses DISEqC 1.2 but the LNB only gives signal status when i switch DISEqC 1.0 on, and even then it gives identical signal strength for hotbird and astra.
any pointers would be greatly appreciated. this is a link to the photo of the dish and alignment http://photos.subhi.com/c939330.html
