[QUOTE="s*t*a*r*m*a*n, post: 38481, member: 175004"] Could you explain please Channel Hopper what the difference is with MPEG 4.2.2 reception? i always see this on lyngsat but never quite understood it. My skystar 2 card setup is using a 90 cm dish which is bolted on to the motor and from there i got a hole drilled into my window and put the cable through it and then connected it to a programmer box which has 128 programmable positions for satellites. I had to move the dish in small increments while tuned to a satellite channel in the clear on for example 1 degree west and when i new i had that channel i moved the dish in small increments again until i found the next satellite on the arc which for me was at 3 east "telecom 2a" etc. I used a cheap and nasty satellite bleeper firts though which connected to the lnb on the dish (while up the ladder) and then the other end would connect to the main cable going into the pc from outside and through an earpiece i could hear a high pitch noise when i was directly on 1 west satellite and as long as that satellite is aligned right and the sat dish is leveled correctly when installed then when the motor moves the dish it should position exactly on the satellite arc where each satellite can be found. It is a irritating to set up at first and i really think i need to slightly align my dish now but i hate doing it as its a nightmare to get back again without a decent meter. The motor controls the dish in my setup and the lnb cable is connected to the lnb input on the skycard 2 where i tune in the channels for each satellite. It works for me. I havent looked at this deseq stuff but i think my motor does the basic diseq 1.1 or something. How can i use the diseq in this setup? surely the motor cannot be moved from the pc alone? do i really need my sat programmer? [/QUOTE]
