DVB-S2 Plus Trial
I had a huge post written up for this but the system logged me out and I lost it....So I'll just give ya the gist.
Got the module today...Plain White Box, module in a static bag, 2 ribbon cables the power cable and a short coax.
Did a bind scan of Galaxy 18..the old Galaxy 10R. It came up with 4 transponders D-S2 but nothing that showed up as 8PSK. They have been coming up as QPSK.
So, I swung it over to HispaSat 1C/D...I know this will be outta range for abunch of folks but I knew there was a transponder there (11909, V, 7200) that was listed at Lyngsat as DVB-S2, 8PSK. I made a new sat with Hispa's coordinated and did a "Smart Scan" (...Oh if you get one of these, remember to change the tuner type to S2) it did pickup that transponder but again as QPSK. So I created a sat with that one transponder but with the tuner attributes of DVB-S2, 8PSK, Pilot On and did a scan from the attena setup menu and it picked up the same channels....for those that are wondering the channels come up as HD 576P....I think that may just be becuase of PAL screen scaling.
So lets get some brains on this....what am I seeing and where should I point this bad boy. I am only running a kU setup right now. I really wish I could give you some C band results but Im not quite there yet. The setup is a 0.90M Fortecstar Offset Dish, Invacom QCP-031 and a Digipower SG-2100 H-H Motor.
