Not all the same When scanning

[stanleyjohn]

When doing a scan i sometimes get a tp that varies slightly in freq than some others here!Does anyone know the reason for this.Example!! I blindscan and get 3844 H 15028 vs 3845 H 15030 that someone else may get.

when you blind scan that will happen...couple reasons
-sensitivity of tuner in receiver
-the LNB and its drift

as long as the frequency isnt off by more than + - 3 you should be fine.

I know when I blind scan 99W World Harvest will log as one of these 3 frequencies
4000
4001
4002

and a symbol rate of
26398
through
26402

so a mix and match....its normal. Commercial equipment usually it has to be nuts on to work but consumer has a little more "play"...no worries

The lower the symbol rate the more it needs to be spot on frequency wise
