[satwyn]

What is 8.0 thor west?yes thor .8w next to intelsat 1w

[wellwell]

o.8 has never worked for me!!
All else does

[satwyn]

.8w and 1w are seen as one sat location

[ManikM]

just like 28.2 and 28.5

With service+ the satellite has to be named correctly or it dont work, the satellite has to be called THOR 3/5 (0.8W), otherwise the server wont recognise the correct satellite to decode the signal.

With nuevoxstream it didn't seem to matter, I named them all by provider and they all used to work, I now have to lump them all in one sat list if I want it to work.

You cant seem to change it in the menu sat set up either, you can rename it but it still dont work.

You have to copy your channel list to a usb and load it to the editor change the satellite name in the correct box and save it back to the usb as a new list and reload.

Then it works.

I find it doesn't matter what the satellite is called. The critical thing is the position. (0.8W)

[TonyO]

Calling the satellite by the right name with service+ is the differance between it working and not working here on most, Some work on my provider satellite list but not C+N on 1w or D+ on 19e.

They need to be on the official name to work here.

[Satcat]

Just renamed Thor as Bert. Still works OK as long as the position is 0.8W

[satwyn]

i'm thinking of changing mine to llanfair pg

[Satcat]

Go go go for it!

[TonyO]

Mines now working so I'll leave alone for now, I'll keep bert in mind if I have any more probs !

[satwyn]

also consider jordan for 13e where some of the **** channels are now also called hotbird but what i'm after is a ka band lnb for ka sat 9e the parents are still looking for a name unless you can help satcat
