    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    Yes, I have an Edision OS Mio+ 4K box.My blind scans of SES-15 were the opposite of yours — it found the data transponders, but not Reuters. Weird stuff!

    OTHER Configure a location in plugin settings

    Thanks for the pointers — never would have found this. MSN Weather was disabled, but “InfoBarWeather” was on. Entered my location and that did the trick (Dutch spelling and all).

    OTHER Configure a location in plugin settings

    Here's another one I haven't been able to figure out. I think this may have started after loading TNAP 5.1 -- when I press "OK" on the Edision OS Mio+ 4K remote, I now see a message that says I need to "configure a location in plugin settings." I don't recall ever loading plugins, but in the...

    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    Just to wrap this up, was finally able to get a bead on the Reuters feed. I had been on the correct satellite for some time, but it was coming up with nothing during blind scans. Tonight I went into the Signal Finder and manually entered the transponder info -- it locked. Did a scan from there...

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    Interesting. This doesn’t seem to be the same as the only reason I noticed the LNB being powered-down was because I had the analyzer connected. Once I select a satellite or favorite, it power right back up. Thought it might be desired behavior, but couldn’t think if what that might accomplish.

    Comments from a newbie to FTA

    I’m still kicking myself for, sometime after most analog feeds vanished, taking down both my 10.5-foot and 7.5-foot C-Band dishes.At the time I figured, “well, these will never be of use again.” What a boneheaded move!

    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    That’s good to know, thanks. I normally keep the dish parked on the Newsource transponder for quick access. I’d never heard of the Reuters feed so I was attempting to see what might be there. Sounds like I’m not missing much.

    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    Thanks for confirming! I'll keep working on it ...

    OTHER Reuters Live on SES-15?

    I've been playing around with the Ku dish recently (after a long absence) and have been looking for some feeds based on what I see at Lyngsat. According to their chart, there should be a feed for Reuters Live on SES-15, 12122H -- can anyone confirm that this exists? I see a pedestal there on the...

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    Are you speaking about a relay that’s inside the motor? If so, that might be difficult to replace. All-in-all it’s no big deal as I’m just futzing around with the whole thing. One other annoyance I’ve come across is that after doing a blind scan and exiting the menu, the Edision shuts off the...

    I'll check that out — appreciate your input!

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    I can’t be certain of that as I’m a bit of a rube when it comes to keeping up with the latest updates. However, I did just install 5.1 a few days ago (20240729) and assumed it was the newest build. This behavior has been going on since the day I installed the dish, maybe 3 years ago.

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    Yes, that's my assumption on how it should work. I should have clarified that I have "fine movement" selected when attempting to nudge it east or west. I wasn't sure what was happening in the beginning, but after connecting a spectrum analyzer it became obvious that it was sweeping the arc...

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    I've been ignoring my FTA system for a while and just started to tinker with it again -- I'm amazed at how much I FORGOT -- it was like starting from scratch. My equipment: Edision OS Mio+ 4K (running TNAP 5.1) GEOSATpro 36" Stab Rotor Sat HH90 I was able to figure most functions out once...

    Thanks for the info. A 24-month discount is a pretty good deal.
