    Where is PBS?

    ADVERTS
    Just got my AZBox Premium HD and I'm trying to find the PBS channels.

    I'm using my 4DTV to move my BUD.

    I upgraded my firmware but I do not have AMC 21 Ku as an option in the AZBox. Am I missing something? Shouldn't that satellite be mapped?

    Thanks,

    Dennis

    I could have sworn it was in there...in fact I know its in there in the newest firmware

    It might be listed as Galaxy 14 which is the C-Band side but it is listed
    University of Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs mens hockey team
    Defending National Champions
    current number 3 in the country (but doesnt mean much honestly)
    number 5 in the pairwise (this means everything...top 15 teams get in the tourney)

    Life is good

    The satellite is ndeed listed as "C-Band: Galaxy 14".

    You needn't worry that it shows C-Band though. Just change the LNBF Frequency (local oscillator frequency) to match your Ku band LNBF and add the transponder frequencies and symbol rates required, then scan.

    You can have both C and Ku band TPs on the same satellite listing, but both may not work at the same time since the local oscillator frequency will be set for the entire satellite and not individual TPs. If you need to do this, then you will eventually need to add a new satellite at the same orbital position (one dedicated to C-Band and the other dedicated to Ku).

    I thought there were 2 listings (C & KU) for 125?

    I dont use those satellites in the list due to my setup. I have 2 "added" satellites

    My AZBox came with image file 0.9.2372 installed and there was only one listing for 125 and that was C band. If I were to do a complete format of my AZBox with the newer image files, they might show two separate listings for 125, but I am not sure of this.

    I'm having a hard time finding the the satellite (I found a few others okay).

    Can the AZBox Premium HD can see the PBS HD feeds?

    I have Firmware 0.93877 which was the latest.

    Just change the LNBF Frequency (local oscillator frequency) to match your Ku band LNBF and add the transponder frequencies and symbol rates required, then scan.
    I don't see any way of getting the TP frequencies to Ku. How do I add the new frequencies?

    Ndennis,

    Yes, the AZBox can detect and display these feeds.

    NDennis,

    You need to change the local oscillator (or LNB Frequency) to 10.750 first (or 9.750/10.600 if you are using a Universal LNBF).

    Then, you need to go to ADD/EDIT SAT/TP option and highlight the TP Frequency line and press the GREEN remote button to ADD TP.

    You will have to enter the TP frequency, symbol rate, polarity and data type and press OK.

    Thank you. I already tried that, but just now figured out that when you are in TP Frequency you simply type the values. I was looking for another prompt.

    Thanks again,

    Dennis
