[QUOTE="deadwing, post: 782091, member: 382914"] Cheers Llew.. a bit of editing in SetEdit did the trick... uploaded and all working like a peach... Though my curiosity got the better of me and I started to experiment with the network scan thing tivu and analoguesat mentioned... It was my understanding that it (a network scan) would only check a set of pre-loaded frequencies in the box but I'm glad to report, IT DOESN'T!! On 28.2 east, I deleted all bar one of frequencies in the transponder list, then went to multisat scan- put a tick next to the the correct satellite and chose network scan. At first I thought it hadn't worked as the 'network scan' disappeared off the screen quite quickly, but then it started a full scan of all of the transponders and it looks like it's found all of them going off the number of channels it's found. I went back to the transponder edit screen and went through them and they all seemed to have been found. So- excuse my ignorance on this - but I take it the 'network scan' allows the receiver to 'talk' to the satellite and the satellite tells it what frequencies/polarities/SR's are on there and loads those into the transponder list in the box? If this is correct, is this basically what is meant by 'Blind search' or is that something else altogether? The reason I ask this is that Innovation also has a feature called 'Power Search'. From the scant information on it in the manual, it kind of indicates it does the same thing except that you select the satellite(s) you want to 'Power Search' then put the box into standby and the 'power search' begins after a minute. Tried this on 26 east- did the same thing as I did on 28.2 east but instead of selecting the network search I switched on the Power Search instead, selected the correct satellite and put the unit into standby..and left it....and left it... no indication anything had happened and when I switched the unit out of standby (after about 90 minutes), nothing had happened!!! One last question (for now!). Does anyone know if the Network Scan automatically deletes any non-live/duplicated transponders and updates any changes or does it just add in any that aren't already in the box? Well, it seems I'm getting there...thanks to all who've helped me on this- the old Drake receiver I started out with in 1987 was SO much simpler :-) [/QUOTE]
