    Viasat on Astra 4.8 driving me Breakin Bad

    Trying to get Astra 4.8 on my Skybox F5s with motor set up.
    I have set all sat to Usals and I am getting Sky, 19.2E, Hotbird and Thor etc without any problems.

    But for some reason so every time I scan Astra 4.8 I only seem to get Eutelsat 7.0E.
    Tried to switch to Diseq and to a "go to" scan with small steps from 7.0E but no joy.

    I have a total different set up with same dish size hooked up to an old Starview box and getting 4.8 without any problems???

    Going as mad as Walter White.

    Have you tried tuning it in with a Transponder if so look at using 11766 H 27500 on the europe beam its very strong and should be easy enough to find and tweak for maximum signal

      Thanks Digicon

      Tried the transponder you gave me and no joy.

      I added it to Eutelsat 3,0 East and started my scanning from there but no sign of Astra 4.8

      Weird really as I can find any other sat with out any problems.

        Sounds very starnge as that Transponder is not repeated on either 3.1? east or 7? east and with it being on the Euro beam is extremely powerful and can easily be picked up on a 60cm dish
