[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 518524, member: 256551"] On lyngsat, the transponders are listed on the left. Each transponder has a number (not important), but each transponder works at a certain frequency, symbol rate, FEC, and polarity. Each transponder then usually carries a number of channels, which are picked off by the receiver using the programme IDs eg VPID & APID. Normally when you get a receiver it normally has a list of satellites already in its memory, together with a separate transponder list for each satellite. It is usual to just pick one of the satellites (the one the dish is pointed at) and perform a scan, it will then go through the transponders in its list one by one and find all the channels for you, and putthem in its channel list. Sometimes some transponders are missing from a list and they have to be entered manually. To enter manually you need to enter the frequency, the symbol rate (eg 27500), and the polarity (either H or V). The FEC (eg 2/3) on many receivers is automatically set by the receiver. When using a multi LNB setup, a Diseqc switch is needed to switch between them. On the receiver this is done separately for each satelite that is being using by setting which switch position is to be used. For example 1 for 13E,2 for 19E, 3 for 28E. Depnding on the sats you want, forget about the side LNBs and just concentrate on the central one, and get that right first. The other ones can be done after. Robbo:) [/QUOTE]
