In my attempt to get a new Azbox Premium Plus to load up (The blind scan will not work and is not working for anyone, so don't buy one of these if you are buying it for blindscan options) I went to The List and downloaded some TP info..I input it in my AZbox and no go
so, when I was setting up my new dish, I used an old Sonicview 4000 to just locate the sats, it's easy to use and scans quickly..I noted a few TP data on each sat, and was looking at my list and find that they are not the same as the ones on the List.. So I checked the TP info on a Pansat 9200HD and see they are again different... i.e. :
Pansat 9200--- Freq 4101 H/ 26398 SR
PVR 800HD--- Freq 4100 H/ 29998 SR
On most of the TP's I have a difference of 1 Mhz and SR changing all over the place, but I am receiving the same channels..
So, when I go to input into the AZBOX, it is not hitting on either of them...I guess I need to check and in put all PID and VID now.....
Any suggestions???
Which info posted is correct..? I see differences (but not much) in what The List has and what I am receiving.
All of this to try and get an expensive AZBOX to do what it was advertised to do, and it will not... but that's another thread over at AZBOX subforum.
Does the SR # need to be exact??? Will 30000 work for 29998?? Or are they actually 30000 but my receiver is reading different???
I see Ice and those guys keep The List updated right all the time, and I am not sure which way to turn here.. Perhaps the AZ is not working at all.. However I am receiving channels that are not even listed on Lyngsat any other lists but that show CBand Freq's and look to me to be KU freqs and channels, but listed as CBand on that receiver... Sheeeeeeit !!!
Thanks, HB

Mods for your Pansat 9200HD
There are mods that you can easily do to your Pansat 9200HD that work very well and have greatly reduced the glitches. I still have a glitch once in a great while but that's very seldom. Take a look at these mods, they should work out your problems and make the Panny a desirable receiver.

Also keep in mind that not all receivers handle switches the same way, the 9200HD does very well as it does 1.0 / 1.1 / 1.2 & USALS. I believe this increases it's ability and yet your other receivers may not have the same characteristics. I own many different recievers and still favor the Pansat for many reasons and especially now that I've modified it.
I also had issues with my Viewsat 9000HD and blind scan, for some reason it would scan in all of the C-band freq's in the 6000 range and yet the channels worked. I can only guess that the software is flakey and mistakenly assigns the freq's with a first digit of 6 instead of a 3 or 4.
Your varying freq issue may be a combination of many things concerning the hardware and how each receiver interprets them, in other words it may be a compatibility issue with switches, lnb's and receivers. This hobby seems to be getting more complicated all the time.

If you are using that setting on a regular LNB that why you having problems. It should be 10750 unless the LNB's are universal LNB's. And if you have universal LNB's on your quad ortho it will NEVER work correctly because the LNB requires 22k to switch from LO to HIGH, and at the SAME time you are sending 22k from the azbox to select the KU LNB's. So all it will ever scan is the HIGH side of your universal LNB because the azbox is sending 22k ALL the time.
Now, if you have regular 11.7/12.2 gHz standard KU LNB's on that quad, your settings should be LO 10750, 22k ON.
My sat list ain't gonna do a damn thing for you, I don't think,because I don't do mine that way, I have a multiswitch for each dish. I don't use 22k for EXACTLY the reason you are experiencing. Yeah, it adds equipment, but makes troubleshooting a LOT easier. In your case that'd be a multiswitch for each band coming off that quad ortho.
If you still want the list I'll send it, but you might be putting more complexity into an already cocked up situation.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

I was reading this article
thehill.com
That said this-
Last summer, for the first time, streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime claimed the largest share of the television viewing audience, surpassing both cable and broadcast TV. Streaming captured 34.8 percent of July viewers, according to Nielsen data, compared to 34.4 percent for cable and 21.6 percent for broadcast.
And then, sometime in the second half of 2022, cord-cutters became the majority. The share of cable and satellite television subscribers dipped to 48 percent, according to a report from Samba TV, a television technology company.
Now I do not consider those with YTTV and the likes, Cord Cutters, but they still do not have Traditional Cable/Satellite delivered Live TV, so I decided to do the math.
There are, now, 129 Million Households in the United States.
In 2015, there were 100 Million Cable/Sat Subscribers , no streaming Live TV Service.
Today, there are 66 Million Live TV subscribers, including Cable, Satellite and Streaming.
Roughly, Streaming Live TV has 14 Million subs including all of them.
So that means, Cable/Satellite now has, roughly, 51 Million Households
So in just 8 years, lost 49% of their subscribers and by the end of this year, expected sub count to be, roughly, 45 million households.
That means a total loss of 55% since 2015 at the end of 2023.
But out of 129 Million households, 45 million will mean only 35% will get Cable/Satellite Delivered Live TV by the end of 2023.
Imagine what 2024 will be like.
Cable TV ‘cord-cutters’ became the majority in 2022

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.

Does someone still have the diagram showing how to connect two Hopper 3s again?
I currently have one H3 and one 4K Joey, set up through a 1000.2 eastern arc hybrid lnb and solo hub.
The plan is to replace the Joey with the second H3. Already purchased a duo hub and I have three coax cables coming in from outside, from back when I used to have the older 1000.4 dish and the hopper 2. I don't fully remember, but I think the other two coax cables are just tied up next to the dish outside; will have to check again.
