[QUOTE="Das Hammer, post: 157943, member: 52373"] I did some scanning last night with a SkyStar2. [U]First tab (LNB Setup):[/U] Checked LNB#1 Selected "None" for diseqc Set it to C band with a 5150 LOF [U]Second tab (Motor):[/U] Changed Satellite to Galaxy10R 123W Clicked Store Note: I don't have a motor connected at this point. I used an STB to move the dish to Galaxy10R. [U]Third Tab (Scanning): [/U] Clicked scan. It went through the TP list and scanned using settings from LNB 1 (which is the only LNB I have checkmarked in the first tab, and it is set to C band) **It tells you in the dialog window which [B]lnb[/B] and which [B]TP[/B] it is scanning** It found all of the C band channels I expected it to. I wanted to scan the Ku portion of this satellite as well, but I'd need to turn 22KHz ON to do so because of the way I have things wired right now. The LNBF I'm using has a built-in 22KHz switch to change from C band to Ku. [U]Unfortunately, I did not see a 22KHz ON/OFF option in the LNB setup. [/U] The only other thing I could do is use a diseqc switch instead of a 22KHz switch. Then, (I'm speculating) I could setup LNB1 as C band with diseqc selected for port#1 and then setup LNB2 as Ku with diseqc selected for port#2. Then (still speculating) it would scan the selected satellite with LNB#1 then LNB#2. That would rock. [/QUOTE]
