Yes, there are transponders on Hispasat which are similar to other satellites and will appear to give you a signal from Hispasat. If you find a match, then search on that transponder and see what channels come up, it is then relatively easy to do a bit of investigation to find out which d
satellite you are on www.lyngsat.com . :)

What I find myself asking though, is why are you searching on a Hispasat transponder when trying to find an Easterly satellite?


I found these transponders similar in Hotbird 13E and Hispasat 30W:

Hotbird 13E Hispasat 30W

11503 V 11503 H
11958 V 11958 H
11977 H 11977 H
12092 H 12092 V
12149 V 12149 V
12226 V 12226 V
12303 V 12303 V
12380 V 12380 V
12616 H 12616 V

I was looking www.lyngsat.com but there is not any link in the transponder list. I can click in the satellite and see the list of channels and transponders but I can not do the opposite, click in the transponder and see what channels come up.

I was trying to catch Hotbird 13E but the quality signal I got was very poor 30%. So I tried Hispasat (just to see what happen, because is the satellite I am really interested in)) and then I got surprise that I got 70% quality signal in Hispasat.

After get good signal on Hispasat (but in 13 degree E) I was thinking to install the dish in that position, do you think should be fine? or i will get some problems, loose the signal in the future?

To see what channels are on the transponders, click on the P in the third column. There are also some key transponders in the sticky at the top of this section.

Whan you did a search on any of those transponders, what channels came up?

The “P” that you say means “Packages” and refers to the channel. Not all channels got a “Packages” but some have. When open one Packages appear for example;
LyngSat Packages; Sky Italia on Hot Bird 13E and a list of all channels in this package with its different transponders.

When I got Hispasat in 13E, I made a quick search and saved the channel list, got 87 channel. Some of them are in Hispasat 30W and others not.

Last weekend I installed the system, and works fine :) . Thanks you all for your help.

Just few things that i don’t understand:
After make the first quick search, I got a list of channels. In each channel I can see its signal. How it’s possible that I receive a free channel, the signal in that channel is 79% but I can not see it? (the screen is black)

I made the fist search and I catch a particular free channel, I deleted all channels and made more detail search but I am not able to catch the same particular channel anymore. (the dish has not been move)

There could be lots of reasons, which channel on which satellite and at which frequency?

The channel name is: Andalucia Television
I got this channel in Hispasat 30W
Transponder 49
Frequency: 11811MHz Vertical

I got it when I made the fist scan with 79% signal but I couldn’t see anything (black screen). Later I deleted to make a more detail search and never more I find it
