Thank you ponti /William, I was missing the 12735 on a blind scan for some reason, a manual input as brought it in.

Probably due to the low symbol rate.

Probably due to the low symbol rate.

Just doing a few test with scanning remlap, an accurate scan brings it in, blind scan misses it skybox f3s, I will play more with accurate scanning in the future.

 

[remlap]

Wouldn't accurate scan need it in your transponder list?

No remlap, I cleared everything out back to factory settings to test.

So Martin, do you actually know what the accurate scan does, because i dont, and it doesnt bring in more stuff than doing a blind scan.

Hi paul, no I don't know how the scan works, but it does seem to pick up more tp than a blind scan here for some reason ?.

 

[Lazarus]

It's just smaller steps, therefore slower and (in theory!) more accurate.

I find both methods imperfect, however.

Yes I agree G, but the box is quite good for scanning.

 

[Lazarus]

Yes indeed. I've taken to Network Scans, though, of late: A sort of halfway house between Manually inputting TPs and Blind Scanning >> And essential when you've got marginal Satellite positions close to strong ones ( Where a Blind/Accurate Scan might pick stuff up from adjacent slots eg Scanning 7W but picking up 5W as well)

I don't scan to much on my 1mtr dishes now days G, and can keep a tight beam on the 1.2 but at times I do get the odd bleed through from other birds using any box i've tried.

 

[Lexzie]

I can't find this bird. Can someone tell me which freq's are active right now?
(Not 12733H. Can't find that one, I guess because SR to low).

 

[pontiend]

All that I get on this satellite are three data transponders.
12695H 2000 3/4
12707H 7513 1/2
12743H 8000 3/4
TB6925 100 cm Dish

 

[zorbua]

I can get Al Nabaa on freq 12734 H with DB 8000 incorporating an Alps Tuner but with Dr HD F15 it won't lock at all....signal goes up to 10.5db but no Video or Audio.
Also this morning was the Coronation of Prince Filippe of Spain on Reuters News 22W. using Dr.HD F15. Dish 1.2 for both Sats.

 

[pontiend]

Al Nabaa is the only channel that I have scanned in on 22W.It must have been a lucky catch.
I have not seen it since I got it.

 

[Lexzie]

OK. Maybe 12707H 7513 1/2 will be the easyist to catch.
According to Flysat there should be a lot of World Cup 2014 feeds directly from Brasil here.
I'm looking for a feed or channel with only natural sound without commentary.
Preferrably in 1920x1080.

[Piltdownpaul]

The only tp i get from this on my TD88 is still:

12743H 8000 3/4 -Shows Service 2 tag.

 

[Lexzie]

I am afraid the problem is a tree in the neighbours' garden.
Can receive 30W and 15W but nothing in between on my 120cm dish.
On my 150cm I get weaker signals for Ku-band because that LNBF is off-focus and I only get very weak signal on 22W (while it should be strong), nothing further westwards (hedge and houses are blocking the line-of-sight).
Eastwards I cannot find any signal intil 15W again.

Hi all, just having a look here, I am only getting AL NABBA-TV 12733 H 1500
