What receivers can pick up these channels?

My Pansat 9200 HD picks up MeTV fine. I'm having problems with Movies, Heros & Icons, and Decades. I will see if I can re-tune the channels. I also use an Openbox S10 and an S9. Before I moved in April these signals were coming in fine, now they fluctuate.

Can anyone tell me why the transponder for Heros & Icons is so hard to receive? I just relocated my dish and after putting it all back together that transponder shows excellent signal strength but then it goes on and off, making it impossible to lock in on the channel. Any advice?

I'll be checking the power supply closer with the scope in a couple of days. I've had to change the caps in all of my other 9200's. Primarily I'm wonder what the difference may be with the model number?

It had a second IF board that I removed. I also inspected all the caps on the power supply but didn't see any visual indications of capacitor problems. I have a feeling it was used to pirate direct tv.

I came across a Pansat HD-9200BL Femu and would like to get it working to receive FTA HD. So far nothing I've done will show signal. Any ideas would help. I have three other 9200HD's all working well.

Does anyone know what satellite THIS TV moved to? The move was effective November 1.

Anyone have a schematic for the Traxis DBS 1500 power supply? Or maybe some parts? I'm trying to troubleshoot one that shows no sign of life.

I haven't found a short on the main board yet, but I'm still looking.

I've considered a short on the main board. With the PS unplugged from the main board the ticking stops and voltages read normal. Anyone want to sell a davaged 9200 cheap for parts?

My second Pansat 9200 is having power problems. I have replaced most of the capacitors on the right side of the transformer but no success yet. It is making a ticking sound so I know something is leaking to ground. I haven't changed the large capacitor on the left side of the transformer yet...

The Openbox is picking up the feeds on 103W while the Pansat 9200 had picked them up in the past but now won't. It's been a few weeks since I pointed a dish at 103W but both receivers worked at that time on ME and This.

Iceberg, Thanks for the advice. I was able to find them on 101W. I am curious why the Openbox picks up channels the Pansat 9200 won't?

Using a Pansat 9200 HD I had been able to view ME TV and THIS on AMC-1 without a problem. Yesterday I tried it and they didn't work. I did a new blind scan and they didn't come up at all. Manual input of the PID's brought in the video but not the audio. I also use an OPENBOX S9HD and it picks...

Flare fixed. I realized I was working on the A channel not the C channel since they are reversed when looking at it from the front. After changing the filter caps on the C channel the flare was gone! Thanks for all the advise.
