[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1116284, member: 82144"] Hello again :) Okay, two things before I directly answer your question. First: Your screenshot shows that you have the LNB override settings enabled. [I]Do not enable those settings unless you know what you are doing (!!!)[/I]. Settings of { 0, 0, 0 } are entirely wrong. Unless you've changed your LNB since your previous thread last week, I strongly advise you to use the "Circular" band setting that was previously recommended to you. Even for single transponder scans. Second: single transponder scanning is intended for experts. It should not be needed by most people. If channels or transponders change on the satellite that you receive, then I recommend you click "update satellite list" to download the latest list of transponders from our website, then do a full "predefined provider" (non-advanced) scan. If you insist that you want to do a single transponder scan then I can only explain what to do by example. First thing I do if I want to do a single transponder scan is to lookup the parameters on either [URL='http://en.kingofsat.net']kingofsat[/URL] or [URL='http://www.lyngsat.com/']lyngsat[/URL]. KingOfSat has more detail, but unfortunately their [URL='http://en.kingofsat.net/satellites.php']satellite directory[/URL] does not cover the satellites in some parts of the world (like NZ, Australia and USA - where you and I live). So in this case I would go to lyngsat. The page for 97W on Lyngsat is here: [url]http://www.lyngsat.com/Galaxy-19.html[/url] The transponder detail for the transponder you're referring to is here: [ATTACH=full]159329[/ATTACH] You can see this by the "11898 V", which matches the frequency and polarisation/polarity (vertical) of the transponder you quoted. From the above screenshot you can get all the parameters you need. frequency = 11898000 kHz (from the "11898" on the left) symbol rate = 22000 ks/s (from the "22000-3/4" at the top/right-ish) polarisation = vertical (from the "V" on the left) modulation = not set (from the fact that this is a DVB-S transponder, which you can tell from "DVB-S" at top centre; if it were a DVB-S2 transponder it would say "DVB-S2" instead of "DVB-S", and the "22000-3/4" would have either "QPSK" or "8PSK" below it... so you would select either QPSK or 8 PSK) inner FEC rate = 3/4 (from the "22000-3/4" at the top/right-ish) pilot = not set (from the fact that this is a DVB-S transponder; for DVB-S2 use "on" in most cases) roll-off = not set (from the fact that this is a DVB-S transponder; for DVB-S2 use "0.35" in most cases) So, now if there is a next time you should be able to figure this out by yourself, right? :) [/QUOTE]
