7.3w and 25.5e

[timbo]

Hi all,
I have a Spiderbox 6000HD, and have been looking to scan 7.3w Eutelsat 7 and 25.5e Eutelsat 25b, neither appear on my list of sats. There is a 25.5a but no 25.5b. Is there a way of entering these manually?
Cheers,
Tim.

you should have 26e badr for that position so use that for scanning

or check the manual on adding new sats to your box for 25.5e and 7.3w

bear in mind you may get little or nothing from those positions here in the uk, unless you have a massive dish

moved to the correct forum (spiderbox forum)

Thanks echelon, I have a one metre dish, it's just that members seem to be receiving sports channels that I can't get. Those are the only two sats where I can find the channels on.

and those members may have much larger dishes than you or I, or may not be in the uk but in places where reception is good with small or medium or large dishes , such as the middle east or north africa or spain or the canaries

page 3 of the user manual tells you how to add satellites and transponders and scan

I don't think it is possible to get 25.5E in the UK although you can get 26E and 7W and 7W can be weather dependent.
