One of the strongest transponder on 10? east is this one 12610 H 9260 5/6 and is easily receivable with a 90cm in the UK

thanks mate yes i get a signal from that transpoder but that is it mate... do i need to ajust the motor again because that sat has a lot of football on it cheers lee i picked up 37 channel that is it mate cheers lee

You could do a blindscan on that Satellite in the frequency range of around 10700 - 11700 in 4mhz steps so as not to pick any channels up from the adjoining 9.0? east and see how many you pick up then but you are not far off from what you have now apart from some feed transponders if they are live at the time you do the scan

ok mate i am using a spiderbox 9000 now mate no blind scan on it and how do i do it 4mhz steps cheers mate lee

The Spiderbox 9000 does have blindscan and a very good one at that, But as i dont have one to hand i cant talk you through the steps.

You could try adding the Transponders individually one at a time from a site such as Flysat FlySat Eutelsat 10A @ 10? East and then scan for the channels

Maybe an easier solution would be to upload the Billybits Multisatellite list as posted very kindly by ramjet here: http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...ml#post2068118

either of those 2 channel lists I posted has 10e in them and 10e works fine too as I have just tried it on my spiderbox

but its worth pointing out that you cannot use the step functions in usals, if you wish to "step" the motor to fine tune the settings you need to be in diseqc v1.2 mode , then step to tune the motor and dish and save the final position to the motor as a diseqc v1.2 position

in usals, you adjust or set your latitude and longitude for your gps location, and can fine tune this by up to about half a degree either way for optimum performance, but diseqc 1.2 is used for proper fine tuning to locate and store each satellite
