[QUOTE="Rvator, post: 889085, member: 402382"] [I][Assuming you can edit the frequencies the magicsat is looking for try these: 10714H 22000 5/6 (Channel 4) 10788V 22000 5/6 (BBC West Midlands) 12207V 27500 2/3 (Sky News) 12610V 22000 5/6 (RT)][/I] Ok thanks again Analoguesat for that addition info. Research Criteria is edited manually on the MagicSat 2002a for Frequency, Polarisation, Signal and Mode. The 12207 and 10714 frequencies you mention and respective polarisation have been given by Scan Teriuer previously and I will edit the other two frequency settings when I next return to the boat to be 10788 and 12610. Can you me tell if the frequencies should be listed in any particular order as the data from Scan Teriuer in the past has had 12207 as the first in the table. What I am not sure of from the frequencies you have provided is what for example the numbers 22000 and 5\6 refers to and how I might relate them to what is needed in the edit menu of the MagicSat as after frequency and polarisation the value for 'Signal' would be either a Yes, No or *** (three asterisks meaning no signal) and the value for 'Mode' would be either Digital or Analogue. As a further question am I correct in assuming that an automatic satellite location system would need to have at least four frequencies of which both horizontal and vertical polarisation are needed in order to align itself to a particular satellite and would it be also be correct that these days for Astra 28e the frequencies are more likely to be Digital? Sorry for all the additional questions, I am new to this and apart from being really frustrated by the issue I am having and wanting to resolve it I am also interested in trying to understand why it has happened and about satellite system a bit more.
