Hi,

I've replaced my old analogue sat receiver with a Comag SL65 Free to Air digital receiver with the intention of picking up Men&Motors.

I've moved the dish and pointed it at Astra 28East and can receive BBC ITV and a few other stations but I can't seem to pick up M&M.

I've been informed on another post that M&M is fully free to air
12422H 27500 2/3

I've found something called a TP (is this transponder?) scan in my menu and changed the values to
12422 MHz
27500 Ks/s
Polarity H
I'd set the 2/3 value if I knew what it was and where to set it!!

But my signal intensity drops to 30% and my signal qulaity drops to 11%

Do I just need to realign my dish to receive M&M?

Many of the other station values are at 75% for example BBC 10773H 22000. I used this channel to align my dish.

Any advice on the setup of this system would be much appreciated.

Is there an FAQ somewhere I should read?

Cheers,

Fountain.

Please do not start new threads when there is already discussion on another thrad. It just leads to duplication of effort. Use your original thread.
