i have this receiver it will blind scan very well but only mpeg 2 feeds as its not a hd receiver.

you would be better off getting a hd receiver that can blind scan think the tm6900 super or a clarke tech version as i believe tm receivers are just rebadged, will blind scan for hd and sd feeds.

doktorofsat, the clarke tech 5000 what frequency steps will it blind scan as the vantage 8000s will do 1-5mhz steps ?
