Unable to tune BBCHD/BBC1HD

[fernandez]

If I try to manually scan on 28E for 10847V 22000 3/4 I get a signal strength reading of 90% and quality zero.
On adjacent transponders such as 10788V,10832H, 10862H,10875V strength and quality are around 90%/85% and everything else is fine. No prob with other HD channels.
The DECT phone has been switched off (in case that was a cause) and although I haven't changed the LNB yet could that be the problem?

Would backing up the channel list and performing a complete re-scan of 28E help?

i have just scanned this frequency and it works fine for me here in scotland using spiderbox 9000hd s=92% q=66% and that was manually scanning the frequency

[fernandez]

Strange thing is that got the HD7000 a couple of weeks ago I let it scan 28E for channels and it found the transponder.
Now, for some reason, it shows zero quality and so no BBCHD/BBC1HD:confused: The dreaded 'No signal'

My settings are as follows
Freq.10847
Symb.22000
Pol.Vert.V
Modulation.DVB-S QPSK

Exactly the same as mine - but it shows Strength 90% Quality 0 - no signal
But, as I said, every other transponder is OK. Why just this one:eek:

working fine here in the north west uk on both BBC HD channels
perhaps you have an lnb fault or some other setting is amiss ?

fec 5/6

fec 5/6

as giga says , its on 5/6 not 3/4 ;)

as giga says , its on 5/6 not 3/4 ;)

I doesn't mater on Spiderbox when Modulation is DVB-S-QPSK

[dajam]

Its not named yet, its just a number, can't remember what though, rescanned mine the other day and its on the same tp as bbc hd, think it was something like 6045, sure it started with 6 though

[fernandez]

It appears (if I can could it) as 6941.
The odd thing is that when I scanned originally the receiver found the transponder - and yes my mistake the FEC is 5/6 - but now BBCHD hs suddenly disappeared.

I deleted the transponder (as per a suggestion) and re-entered it with the same results, so now BBCHD doesn't appear on the channel list at all.
It's also been suggested that the Global DiSEqC switch I am using (which has never caused problems before) could be the the problem.
I'll try a direct feed from the Astra2 LNB tomorrow and see if that makes a difference

don't know the box, if you can set Fec to Auto or Fec individual: 1/2 3/4 5/6 ... If wrong fec is set, can imagine it wont open stream as you tell to read 3/4 and not read others.

I get a signal strength reading of 90% and quality zero could be a symptom for having a wrong Fec, as strong signal is received other parameters mentioned did fit (or your reading the wrong satellite)

[fernandez]

Situation resolved.

Fed the 28E LNB direct to the receiver (no DiSEqc switch used) - no difference.
Took the receiver to a friends to try on a Sky dish - transponder tuned in.
Replaced the LNB on my dish and used DiSEqc switch - everything back to normal

Glad to see that you are sorted
