Can't get video on G3C 4040
ADVERTS 1
Any idea why I can't get any video on G3C 4040 digital. I get a 50 signal but when doing a blind scan it comes up no channels. I tried manual entering the PIDs and did get one channel listed as: Ch-A but no audio or video, just a black screen???

Proud Staff MemberPete he's thinking of the Equity stuff at 4040 H
sikma...50 ain't gonna cut it for signal. I got it at 60-62 and that was good enough to keep the signal most of the time. Something is wacky because the VOA on that satellite I get at 30 stable, yet the Equity stuff at 60 sometimes has drop outs??
I am using my Pansat 1500 to get themWinegard 76cm dish, SG2100 motor, Sadoun dual KU LNB..... Directv Slimline SWM 3 LNB.... GeoSatPro 36" dish with Sadoun dual KU LNB...

Proud Staff Membersikma
Can you get VOA or any of the feeds on there? There should be a whole bunch of feeds (they're listed oin Lyngsat...same SR different frequency)
I'd try to tune some of those in 1st, then go for the frequency you want Winegard 76cm dish, SG2100 motor, Sadoun dual KU LNB..... Directv Slimline SWM 3 LNB....

Proud Staff MemberI had the same issue too. For me, I had to push the LNB in closer (mine is even with the 38 line on the 421 C-band LNB) to get it stronger

By bsc621 doesn't have lines on it....but it's worth a try I guess. Is it possible I'm not inputting the right VPID & APID's. I'm getting them off Lyngsat? Like I said before, when I input VPID & APID for Wings for example, I use VPID:52 APID:51 then scan and get a channel: Ch-A but just a black screen with a signal of 50???? I'm stumped!

Proud Staff Membercan you manually scan the transponder (not a blind scan, just a TP scan)
even though the signal quality says 50, if there isnt enough quality to keep a stable picture, it wont even scan inWinegard 76cm dish, SG2100 motor, Sadoun dual KU LNB.....
