New BBC TP - 11464H 22000 5/6

[BlindFaith]

...though the VU+ is showing the frequency as 11461H

Maybe you'll a new LNB. Check at other frequencies ;)

Needless to say it's very strong here....though the VU+ is showing the frequency as 11461H

The frequency depends on the Lnb & tuner match some of my older Lnb's read +/- 2 to 4Hz high,
100 cm dish + 0.2 Inverto Black Ultra
The AZBox read 2Hz low
TM5302HD reads 1Hz low
TM5402HD M3 is spot on 11464 h 22000 This is the correct frequency as per thread title

This transponder is carrying several BBC Red Button channels now. Both SD and HD, on one currently BBC Three HD is running.

Service 22101 shows a "reed warbler cam live" 2 chicks already have hatched

But there a also service 22110 which is scrambled. Could be a HD feed (H.264, 6mbps) Any idea?

'2Hz low or 1Hz low'' Guess you mean Khz. Sometimes not even a Frequency Synthesizer is that accurate in Hz domain.

Sorry yes =/- 2 to 4 KHz

By comparing the clear subtitles I've found the answer: ATM services 22110/22220 show the programme of BBC Three HD. But why is it scrambled??

 

[dxhound2003]

They weren't scrambled last night when I was watching Family Guy, even though they had the $ symbol. Scrambled now.

Currently an empty transponder at time of speaking.

This transponder is definitely 2F UK spot.

New test cards on 22110 & 22120 in HD now BCOS Path 2 replaces BBC encrypted channels.

 

[Pietclock]

BBC RB1 is now on this TP also via the BSkyB boxes...

Huevos, would be really grateful if you could average the signal strength of each transponder across the time you were testing 2E and 2F. Would make a great reference, cheers.

Not quite sure what you mean.

dB or % Quality can only be used as a guide unless you both live in the same location which you do not.

Look here for reception details:-

The fingerprint is the same for the whole of this region, just the level changes.

 

[Pride Of Cucamonga]

I remember you took dB readings of every transponder on 2F, and later 2E, every 10 minutes. I would like to know the average dB of each transponder across the whole testing period. Would serve as a useful reference for knowing which are generally strongest / weakest so i can choose best version of BBC1 etc. many thanks
