I have a dish on the side of my house aligned to 19.2 from the days of analogue sky. For a bit of fun, I bought a cheap FTA digital STB (Fortec Star Beta) despite having no idea what type of LNB is on the dish.
I quite easily found 180 or so FTA channels but I've noticed that the frequencies displayed on screen are different to those listed on lyngsat.com.
For example....
ARTE (tp24) should be 11568, but displays as 11318 on my box.
KTO (tp22) should be 11538 but displays as 11285 on my box.
(note: the discrepancy is about 250)
I'm guessing this is something to do with the LNB? Does it mean I don't have a universal LNB? If this is the case, what LNB frequency should I be using on my Fortec?
Sorry if this is a dumb question! I'm pretty new to Satellite stuff! Thanks.
