On King*of*Sat it says of total 954 tv channels and 133 radios !

Take a look on their website !

depends whether you have a HD reciever?

I scanned 681 tv channels with a dm800

You may need to do a network scan or add transponders manually

[echelon]

depends on your location too , so maybe not for norway !!

1:Ok, my location is in Norway, southeast norway province Telemark.
2:My STB Octagon SF 1018HD
3:I have check about transponders, they are there all from lyngsat.
4:But i have NOT try network scan.
Will i find more channels if i adjust antenne more corect, i meen maybee try signal strenht up to 80-90%, will that help?
From before i have 3395 Tv channels from posision 19-13-5-1 on other antenna, Troll ant.

80% signal should be enough for the UK, but not sure about Norway.

We get about 1000 TV/Radio channels scanned in the UK, so at present you are only getting about half the channels.

Many of the channels are junk like data, and advertising channels though, so you may be missing nothing. :rolleyes:

ok, now my signal 80-90% and 23 more channel here, that meen around 609 ch.28,2E
But (heeeeeelllp) now i have some diseq problem.
With my 4 lnb i use dieq 1\4 v1.0 LNB1(1W) LNB2(5E) OUT LNB3(13E) LNB4(19)
But becasue that lnb nr.5 i have change diseq to 1\8 v1,2
LNB-A LNB-B LNB-C LNB-D LNB-E LNB-F LNB-G LNB-H and OUT.
I have conect 1W-A, 5E-B, 13E-C, 19E-D, 28,2-E.
So.....inside menu Octagon 1018 i think have some problem, what i do?
I have set 1W=A\1, 5E=B\2, 13E=B\3 ssems to work, but 28,2E i have problem with diseq.
If i conect antenne cable direkt to lnb 28,2, then no problem.
!!??
Many time and many free channel also get message "wrong with channel" !!?

[bibo_norway]

No, can still not find signal at 28,2E when i use diseq :( :( :( :(

If you have only 4 lnb's, you should use this kind of config :
Configuration Mode : Simple
Mode : diSEqC A/B/C/D
That's all

Yes that easy, but please read again!
Problem start with lnb nr.5 (28,2E) when i change diseq :(

[passete]

Sorry, i thought that you have 4 lnb's !

OK

Depends upon your size of dish and location (norway)

So I guess you do not get anything from astra 2D? If you do not have a big dish.

Then Astra 2A/2B south/east beams, (you can check also from lyngsat etc.)

And I guess again that astra 2A south beams are more difficult to you.Lnb skew is very important for those in my location (Finland).All the rest piece of cake...And eurobird1.. very easy.

Edit:And you can see signals levels are different with "hard ones" between daytime ;)
