[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 630601, member: 323322"] I'm afraid you have misled yourself! You can only get Channels from the Satellite cluster you're aligned to. But, since Transponder frequencies are repeated across the arc, if you scan another stored Satellite, you will get some Channels - but they are nevertheless Channels (in your case) from Hotbird. Remember, if you scan another "Satellite", all you are doing is scanning another Data Table - The "Satellite" label is irrelevant. Your Receiver has no idea where the Satellites are or where your Dish is pointing. Please list a few examples of Channels you got when scanning the Thor and Sirius tables - or, just check them against the full Hotbird listing here: _http://www.flysat.com/hotbird.php PS: When you say "change the LNBs to other Satellites", I am assuming you didn't physically touch the LNB at all? (Because it [I]is[/I] possible to effectively receive other strong Satellites within a few degrees if you do, but it is a tricky business and requires precision: Some people use several LNBs on a specially made arm and can get a handful of Satellites with only one Dish position) [/QUOTE]
