I've not tried a single satellite scan because I have manually done a satfind and checked every frequency for 19.2, there is no SNR on any. When adjusting the LNB, I set satfind to the strongest frequency. I start with the LNB higher than 23.5, I know it should be lower, and move it in...

Have updated my satellites.xml with just these three satellites and have tried all frequencies. There is no SNR on any frequency. When I'm up at the dish I have tried the strongest frequency on that satellite. As far as I'm aware there isn't anyway to blind scan on the DM800, not on the image...

Installed my new switch and cables. I can now get 28.2 and 23.5 but still can't get 19.2. Have connected the LNB directly to the receiver and set to single in tuner config but get no snr from the LNB at all only 65-99% AGC. Have plumped for a new LNB. Will see what happens then. Really wanted to...

I have got my new 4-way switch and some new cables. As I work nights I don't get chance to work on this during the day. I will replace the kit Friday/Saturday and report back.

Ok, I have taken a photo of the dish. I know it isn't very tidy looking but it's a WIP at the moment.

I always make sure to power off the receiver when I disconnect the switch but just in case I have ordered a new 4-way switch. I did connect the receiver directly to the 19.2 LNB and couldn't get any signal at all. Only 90% AGC. One thing to note. When I disconnect the LNB's, even though...

Hi I seem to be having problems setting up my multi lnb dish. I am located near Peterborough. I have a 60cm dish at the front of the house, very limited view of the southern sky, I have aligned the dish to 23.5 and get an excellent signal, 70-80% on all transponders. I have a multi lnb bracket...

Ok, I have attached a diagram of what I am trying to do. At the moment I have it setup as per the diagram except for the splitter part. If I put that in, I lose the motorised feed. Sorry for the poorness of my artwork. Just out of interest, I found a link to a website which seems to have a...

Ok, as I said in my first post, I don't want to use them both at the same time. Neither of the receivers will be on at the same time. I just need them both to be able to control the motor if they need to. I have already done this on the system at my parents with both receivers connected to the...

Hi. I am trying to setup a motorised and fixed dish to two receivers, a DM800 and DM500. I have the fixed dish running with a quad lnb to a Chess 2x1 diseqc switch, one for each receiver and that works fine. The problem comes when I vector in the motorised dish. I can connect it to either switch...

Hi Satelliteman, PM sent. Thanks

I have a similar issue with my DM800 connected to a scart selector. Using a magic eye in the kitchen, moving through channels lists and menus is slow and erratic, sometimes doesn't move then will jump 2 or 3 selections at once. I tried moving the IR receiver directly over the IR of the DM800...

HD version is unconfirmed at the moment but likely in order to keep it in line with the other channels.

I have a DM800 using CS via Wifi. I'm using a Belkin G+ wireless router for my wifi and a Linksys WET54G wireless bridge for the Dreambox. The only problems I have are with the Spanish Canal+ channels on 19.2 which freeze occasionally. Everything else is ok, even Sky using NDS. I think the...
