    Channel List for 13E/19.2E on Skybox F5S?

    I'm thinking of setting up an F5S, I already have a F3.

    Is there a channel list for 13E and 19.2E, I have a dual LNB on a 1 metre dish that hasn't been used in a while, thought I might see if it still works. If not can I manually scan for channels?

    Can I also use a switch to use the dish pointing at 28.2 and switch between the 2 inputs?

    Thanks

      Thanks for the reply, spent a few hours this afternoon watching the the excellent vid on how to create a channel list posted by sattv5.



      Also played around with the MediaBox editor and wondered whether switching the power to On (Auto) for 19.2E should do the same as scanning to add the channels? This will give the channels but I'm thinking it wont have the channel list (i.e names of the channel)..or will it. Looked at KingsofSat and can see them listed, will wait until the new box comes and play around then.

      Cheers.

        You can use a DiSEqC switch to automatically switch between LNB's. You can connect all 3 LNB's to the switch & it will automatically select the right LNB when you tune your receiver.

          That is what I did.... I have 19.2 & 28 via an Octagon Flex Feed LNB with a DiSEqC switch...... one thing if anyone wants to do the same.... to align the dish fit the LNB right side into the bracket ....for 19.2,then align to 19.2 & tune... then ease out to 9 degrees for 28.... check signal before clamping up and tune.... simplez.... done 4 of these so far on 4 different boxes for motorsport fans who go for 19.2 for the sport rather than pay Sly
