Where are all the feeds, it's just black? MPEG 4:2:0?

[QUOTE="Tom Mountford, post: 139235, member: 186234"] I've left the Technomate to 'auto-navigate-blind-scan' every satellite in its list - all polarisations and all transponders in detail. It has already found several channels on satellites way outside the arc I thought I was limited to. I can see why the installers didn't bother scanning everything - it's been going for 35 hours already and still hasn't made its way to the ones I have already scanned... so I'm hopeful of a very large channel list once it has finished searching! Could someone put me straight on the technical words in the receiver setup, here's my interpretation: Frequency - The part of the spectrum the channel is in (in Gigahertz?) Transponder - An individual receiver and re-transmitter onboard the satellite... does each transponder carry a different channel lineup or are they just backups? Polarisation - Is this a way of multiplexing two channels into the same frequency on a single transponder??? I'm only asking as the installers just scanned the transponder with the strongest signal on each satellite. I'll let you know what the channel list comes up with. Cheers, Tom [/QUOTE]
