    You are right (a side effect of copy/paste).

    Octo lnb with multiswitch

    I don't know this Q2 but it's doesn't seem to be something super, advanced, hi-tech. Each input of the multiswitch sends the appropriate voltage and the 22kHz tone (if necessary) to the LNB ports, so simple. This feature is available to the 4 Sat IF amplifier SBK 5503 from Spaun. This kind of...

    Replacing feedhorn

    This is the 'before' picture. I don't know how to mount the new feedhorn.

    Replacing feedhorn

    Hi guys, i have a dish with circular feedhorn and a quattro LNB for Ku band. The front side of the feedhorn has a plastic film. This film got broken, insects started getting into the waveguide (ruining the signal) and i decided to replace the feedhorn. The problem is that the diameter of the...

    Waveguide Transformer - What does it do and do I need one.

    The circular waveguides are capable of propagating both horizontal and vertical polarization at the same time. The orthogonal waveguides are capable for only one polarization. Take a look at this picture. h**p://www.smw.se/res/bilder/feedhornomtadapters.jpg The OMT30 is a "T"shaped adaptor with...

    Unable to tune low Symbol Rate channels

    Hi guys, there are two problems trying to receive low symbol rate carriers. The first (mentioned above) is the fact that the badwidth is small. The frequency of the LNB drifts (unless you pay 1.500 euros for a professional single band LNB with 25KHz tolerance), the exact frequency of the IF can...

    Multi-subtitle

    There is no term like multi-subtitle. If you mean the option to select the subtitling language yes it is posible. It depends on the broadcaster. Any channel can be transmitted with a number of subtitling languages. For example, TV5 MONDE EUROPE in Hotbird carries subtitles in french, german and...

    BISS 1, -E in CAM?

    Guys, you are wrong. BISS-1, BISS-E and the various Conditional Acceess Systems (Viaccess, irdeto, Conax, etc) use the same algorithm for scrambling. In case of BISS-1/E the key (control word) is entered manually to the receiver. In case of a CAS, the key is transmitted encrypted and gets...

    CAM to take official card NDS Videoguard for VIASAT (Scandinavian and Baltic channel)

    NDS does not use CAM. Any solution proposed (dreambox with CCCAM , etc) in unofficial, perhaps illegal.

    smartcard theory & ECM EMM?

    Actually it does. This is the weak point of the whole system and some programmers tookadvantage of it. Otherwise, there whould be no key sharing and dreamboxes whould not be so popular.

    Line Amplifier does not increase the quality

    In order to find the best point to connect the line amplifier you have to measure the signal's level at the start and the end of the cable. If the signal of the LNB is strong then the amplifier connected next to LNB will saturate the amplifier.

    Tandberg Alteia Problem

    What's the model of the receiver? TT1260? The Tandberg IRDs are capable of both NTSC and PAL. 625/50: PAL 525/60: NTSC In the frame Sync an analog reference signal is connected in order to have the video of all sources syncronized (necessary for studios).

    Irdeto encrypted channel not coming through - have smartcard

    You do not need to enter keys. The idea of using smartcard (apart from security issues) is not to have to enter keys (BISS keys are entered to professional receivers by broadcasters). This CAM is legitimate IRDETO CAM. You should check the Softcell version of the CAM through the CA menu of the...
