These are currently the Best Receiver for Feed Hunting in my opinion TM5502HD & TM5302HD
For a quick & easy set up to find out what is active on a satellite,
Go to 10 east feeds satellite (Active in the Ku band 10.7 to 11.7GHz & 12.5 to 12.75GHz
For quicker results I usually split the Ku band up into smaller groups with the most active 1st
Method 1
Move to the satellite that you want to search
Now to see what is active between 10700 to 12750 on this satellite use the Satellite Finder (
Menu >> Installations >> Satellite Finder
Part-1
1/Installation
2/Advanced search
3/Move the cursor to transponder & press ok this will show the list of transponders
4/Press the yellow button Delete All & press OK then exit exit
5/Now go to Blind Search & press OK
6/Select transponder range for the 1st scan
7/Press ok now set From 10950 To 11200 using both vertical & horizontal polarisation
8/Select Step Scan @ 6MHz & press the red button to search
This method is a lot faster than going through the data base that may include 40 transponders
to delete non active transponders
Part-2
As above 1 to 6 now for the 2nd scan select From 11450 To 11700
Part-3
3rd scan From 12500 To 12750
Part-4
11200 to 11450
Part-5
10700 to 10950 Vertical polarisation
This completes the active part of the Ku band used by Eutelsat 10A @ 10 east your
channel list for this satellite
will now be up to date provided your Dish & Lnb have been set up correctly.
Eutelsat 9A @ 9 east uses 11700 to 12500 for DTH broadcasts.
Before you start a scan you can either remove the dead transponders manually one at a time
or you can delete all transponders
on a satellite via the Yellow button accessed
via Menu>> Installations>>Advanced Search then move the cursor down to Transponders
then press ok & the option will appear on the Yellow Button "Delete All"
Now exit exit & go to Blind Search,
It is only advisable to do this on Feed Satellites
not on Direct to Home satellites such as Astra 28.2 east 23.5 east 19.2 east
Hotbird ect.
