[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 818371, member: 323322"] "Astra 2D" is just a label - you can call it what you want. The "some other Satellite" you mention is (again) either 13E or 19E. ie You select 13E and get 13E, you select 19E and get 19E, but you select 28E and (owing to the wrong DiSEqC setting) are accessing the LNB pointing at 13E or 19E. You'll get some Channels showing up, but not all, as the Transponder lists only match in a few cases. The only value in a "Satellite" (ie The Label plus the Transponder details - which are often out of date anyway - as stored in the Konig) is when it is permitted to correlate directly to the real Satellite your LNB is receiving. Otherwise, it's just a simple and relatively useless data table. Once you've got the DiSEqC setting sorted, why not Edit that label to eg "UK" (thus at a stroke eliminating any confusion about the physical shifting around of Satellites that is going on right now - It should be "invisible" to you: so long as there are Birds actually transmitting from 28E, it matters not a jot what they are called)? Sadly , this is one of those issues which would probably take us only a few minutes to resolve if we were sat in your gaff - but trying to explain it so you know what we're going on about ain't easy!) :unsure: Anyway, whichever Receiver you use, BIN the Splitter! Until you sort out the DisEqC settings,iIf you want to have any easy choice, get an A/B Cable Isolation switch, which will divert the feed from the Dish either to the Konig or to the Optex. However, checking and putting right the "UK" (Or "Astra 2D" as your label currently is) DiSEqC settings is by far the quickest and easiest solution! [/QUOTE]
