    Problem Receiving British Broadcasts In Paris, France Konig SDFTA11

    As you have pointed out in various postings on this site,getting the DiSEqc settings right is fundamental. The fact that this subject is totally omitted from the König instructions is one of the main reasons why I describe those instructions as inadequate. The instructions should explain what...

    Problem Receiving British Broadcasts In Paris, France Konig SDFTA11

    I succeeded today in making the receiver work, by doing the following. In the "Antenna Setup" section of the "Installation" menu, I changed the DiSEqc 1.0 settings to give the best reception results for each of the three satellites I originally selected when I bought the receiver, which appeared...

    Problem Receiving British Broadcasts In Paris, France Konig SDFTA11

    The plot thickens! So what the Konig told me was Astra 2D must be some other satellite. And maybe I have to stay with my two-satellite regime (foreign channels on the Konig and UK channels on the Optex), and just try to get back some of the UK channels which are missing on the Optex. I haven't...

    Problem Receiving British Broadcasts In Paris, France Konig SDFTA11

    Thanks a lot, I'll try this. How would I "find the DiSEqC settings"? Just one point, though - the Konig box receives three satellites,not just the two. It just doesn't receive transmissions from the UK (mainstream BBC and ITV, and BBC Radio except Five Live). The Konig does however receive BBC...

    Problem Receiving British Broadcasts In Paris, France Konig SDFTA11

    Yes, I can receive broadcasts from Astra 1, Astra 2 and Hotbird. I imagine the installers of the dish must have put it in some sort of compromise position to be able to receive from 19 E and 28.2 E. There are 3 LNBs on the dish, and one downlead which goes into the two-way splitter. From the...

    Problem Receiving British Broadcasts In Paris, France Konig SDFTA11

    Thanks again, I will look into these suggestions. Ideally I would only have one receiver, and therefore not need a stacker/destacker. So can anybody explain why the Optex box stopped receiving all three satellites fully, as it did when it was new? Or why the Konig box receives a bunch of other...

    Problem Receiving British Broadcasts In Paris, France Konig SDFTA11

    Thanks for your comments. Up to now I have been able to manager the splitter problem by making sure one of the two boxes is switched off. Then the other box is the only one connected toi the downlead, and it can send its signals to the LNB. I tried the loopback but there is no signal available...

    Problem Receiving British Broadcasts In Paris, France Konig SDFTA11

    Can anybody please help me to receive British transmissions from Astra 2D. My Optex receiver receives only some, and no BBC Radio 4. My Konig receiver receives nothing from the UK. I switch between the output from that and the output from the Konig receiver (which receives TV and radio from...
