I'm not at home today, but I did receive the transponder last week with a Global ADX and standard (DRO) universal. You will not get it unless you do the same, or play with the PLL settings in a more modern LNB.

Comment on that satellite, today I am thick @ sat-tv-fan

In general, with the latest versions / updates of diver, the blind search of tp and channel works well at once.
But if we do it in 2 steps, first you look for tp's and then you tell it to look for all the channels it stops in tp with 16/32 apsk, it leaves the menu with exit, not giving casque as before, but as I indicated, if we do it by selecting Blind channel search, perfect.
Use hispasat for these tests, minimum SR for the blind search SR1000, finding the radio channels well with SR1481.
Looking for hand signal, well with SR767 data channels.
The heat causes the performance to lower somewhat in general, be careful if you go to the limit, you have to ventilate the tuner / tuners.
This past Sunday I saw something strange with the link they put on Hispasat, OVERON Occ for the events of Moncloa.
It's on 12092V27500 3/4, you could hear, but not see.
Streaming the perfect channel, the rest of the tp channels, fine.
I made recordings of the channel to compare features with another recording of a VU + DUO2 and they had the same options, exchanging the recordings in the decos (identified who they are), the VU + DUO2 perfectly sees what the Octagon recorded.
The Octagon black image with the DUO2 recording.
Sorry for the translation

Comenta en que satelite, hoy estoy espeso @sat-tv-fan

En general con las ultimas versiones/actualizacion de diver funciona bien la busqueda ciega de tp y canale de una vez .
Pero si lo hacemos en 2 pasos, primeros buscas tp's y luego le dices que busque todos los canales se para en tp con 16/32 apsk, sale del menu con exit, no dando casque como antes, pero como indico, si lo hacesmos seleccioando busqueda ciega de canales, perfecto.
Uso hispasat para estas pruebas, SR minimo para la busqueda ciega SR1000, encontrando los canales de radio bien con SR1481.
Buscando señal a mano, bien con canales de datos SR767.
El calor hace que baje algo el rendimiento en general, cuidado si vas al limite, toca ventilar los tuner/sintonizadores.
Este domingo pasado vi algo raro con el enlace que pusieron por Hispasat, OVERON Occ para los eventos de Moncloa.
Esta en 12092V27500 3/4, se podia escuchar, pero no ver.
Por streaming el canal perfecto, el resto de canales del tp, bien.
Realice grabaciones del canal para comparar caracteristicas con otra grabacion de un VU+DUO2 y tenian las mismas opcines, intercambiando las grabaciones en los decos (identificadas de queien son), el VU+DUO2 ve perfectamente lo grabado por el Octagon.
El Octagon imagen en negro con la grabacion del DUO2.

Has anybody upgraded their SF8008 with additional memory and if so, has it made any difference to the satellite/terrestrial receiver part of the machine (in terms of blind scan storing/epg filling etc. )?

But keep the dimension in MHz by adding a decimal point

Between the low symbol that it admits and the possibility of setting the frequency with more precision, perfect.
Hopefully the automatic frequency control does not limit that contribution.
Thanks for the info.

Still like to know if the tuner can receive the Es Hail 2 beacon on 10.492.500 at 25.9 deg East ?

It doesn't even try to scan. Software limitation should be removed first..
I only have one box where 10493H works. Revez HDS610, costs under 40euro

Use a downconverter, or a modified LNB.

OK is this with an unmodified LNB ? I only see the 620 now, would this get symbol rates below 2000 btw ?

Yes. Correction, model is HDS605, but newer models propably use same tuner.
10496H SR1000 does also lock, but not stabile. Bellow SR1000 no chance

Not easy to find a downconverter it seems ?
I have a Philex version here, though I've not used it for this purpose and will probably require rewiring to switch on manually. As per the Es'hail thread.


Yours for the price of a pint.

Yes, it's Inverto Black Ultra. 10496 works poorly, because low SR, but 10493 SR2000 is just fine
