I am trying to manually enter transponders for channels and was wondering what the minimum spacing for transponders are. I am working with low SR channels on 99w trying to find all of them. I entered one at 3910 and got a channel but come to find out I already had the channel at 3916. I found 2 channels on the same bird with SR of 3932 and 3936 and they are different channels. Does the transponder spacing change with symbol rates?
 
it depends on the receiver. I've been able to put in 2 TP's 4 Mhz apart (same symbol rate) with no issues. I know some receivers think if you put in TP's that close its the same TP so it freaks out.

Try and remove both TP's and then manually enter them
 
some receivers have a signal quality display on the same page that you change tp info,so you can make tweaks and see how the signal reacts at the same time.
