How do I scan for Libya Sport on 5W ??

[Dkstyle]

Hi Guys,

I dont mess around too much with my sat setup, so a bit rusty here.. But I just added a new LNB to my dish, so I now also have 5W(Atlantic Bird 3). Signal is fine and it does find about 150 channels when doing the automatic satelitt scan.

BUT I see there is also some channels that it does not find. Like all the channels on the Panatlantic, where Libya Sport 1 and 2 should be FTA. http://www.lyngsat.com/ab3.html

I'm based in Denmark, and according to the chart on lyngsat, I should be able to get the channels fine.

Now my question is: How do I scan for those channels (Libya Sport 1 & 2)manually ? Usually there is a frequency, Symbol Rate, Polarity and FEC to enter when doing a manually search. But for the Libya Sport 1 & 2 channels I can not find that ? Its only says 4158 R, tp C10 and that can't be enough to do the seach, or what is it i'm not understanding here ?

Hope someone can help me here, since now I got the 5W, I also would like to be able to see the free sports channels on it

Thanks in advance for any help!

welcome to the forum Dkstyle

Those are C band Right circular polarised transmissions you need C band equipment for them

Its a C-band transmission. Unless you have a C-band receiver and lnb on your dish you cant watch it.

Edit - drat need to type faster!

Thanks for the welcome and info guys. I guess i'm outta luck with my DM800 dreambox then.

Too bad, since there is really nothing much on 5W then. Maybe I should move it to 4W instead.. Running out of interesting sats, and I still haven't got all 10 LNB's up and running yet

Can you get 4W in Denmark?? Its a difficult one in the UK

 

[Dkstyle]

The Europe beam on 4W should be ok for here in Denmark looking at lyngsat. But yes, looks not possible for the UK. I haven't tried 4W yet, since it had to either 4W or 5W, so picked 5W first due to the Libya Sports channels I thought I could pick up

I Don't have too much trouble with the Europe beam here in East Anglia UK, weather permitting

You have a silly sized dish though dont you? Most of us either dont have room for such a monster or would annoy the neighbours no end with such a beastie.

1m dish in Kent/SE gets quite a few transponders on 4w including Megasport.

you need c band lnb to get libya sport on 5w and any cheap reciver like starsat 5300 will do
