no - channel master 1.8m - offset thanks for reply and info.

hey guys - ive recently acquired an old original Channel polar mount and struggling to find the arc. a starting question is the angle of the polar mount axis - ive been told it should be set to latitude (for me 51.3) - UK ive also read it should be 90 minus that figure - giving a reading of...

FYI - an OCTAGON SF8008 can blind scan and lock those CHINA RADIO signals at 900 SR @45w. might be worth a look in. i know, its been driving me nuts for weeks...3 receivers later , and i can get it - both a blind scan and a manual tune gets it.

if you're using an E2 receiver - and its on your network (and you have wifi) you can install satellite finder app on your smart phone to peak your signals in realtime. once app is installed, configure this for your E2 receiver. goto signal, this will show whatever channel along with signal...

BTW is there a universal AZTRINO yet for both EU and US ? that has good blindscan?

heres the links to downloads http://www.opena.tv/forum/vbdownloads.php?categoryid=1 u just boot your box holding the volume up or down key (cant remember which ) then stick in the IP address shown on display. choose the WEBI|F version and upload, reboot, thats it!

_http://www.opena.tv/ first there was SATSCAN, now these guys have incorporated a proper blind scan with configurable symbol rates! AT LAST!! ?ENJOY!!!

ps when i plugged the cable directly in and download satscan plugin 1.3 (in menu) but comes down as 1.4 - blind scan worked brilliantly - very happy. i wish it said which feeds were 4.2.2 - i dont think theres a way to tell/

i got an ME last night!!! ive slaved it off an Xtrend 9200 but im getting low signal...i might have to get a priority smart switch.

does this work on both ME and MINIME ? also, does it work on Ku band \ Europe? Or purely for C Band? thanks.

its funny that there is not much enthusiasm for feed hunting here in the UK, but you guys are well into it. it looks like i'll be ok with Ku feeds then with the E2 images and satscan 1.4 i think i will get my ME, im only paying £130 for it anyway....and all i want it for is feeds and 4.2.2

interesting. im pretty sure with OPENRSI \ OPENAZBOX - and the v1.3 satscan plugin, it should behave quite well on blindscan...

Scopus - im sure thats not the case anymore is it, re the E2 firmware, and satscan 1.3 for E2??

hasnt the MINIME also, due to the fact that AZBOX as a company are no more (opensat)

thanks mate - gonna get one
