No horizontal Transponders on 82

Hello,

Here's my system: PC with a Twinhan 1020A, connected directly to an dual DSS lnb. My system was working fine for quite a while when things started going south. When I do a full scan (using either DVB Dream or MediaPortal) I only get the vertical transponders. I searched on the net and ended up swapping the LNB and the cable but no success. Today I pointed my dish at 91 and got both H &V transponders: pointed back at 82 and only V transponders. I've measured the voltages and am getting 13 and 18 volts and I've tried a second card. Any ideas? hopefully I've provided enough info.

tks

If this is a new installation
Yor scan settings somehow specifying Vertical TPs

Yo did provide important information by measuring voltage
It means yo didn't blow the power capacitors and by scaning 91 and getting both it means yor receiver and LNBs are fine

So here is what I think
Make sure no other coax attached
It has to be an antetenna setup issue not hardware
In yor antenna setup there is a screen somewhere selcting V Scan only
Change that back to V&H or All and re-scan once again

Thanks for the quick reply,

I've removed the extra cable from the LNB. The .ini file for DVB Dream has both H & V transponders listed and as it scans, it finds teh V ones just fine (lvl 80% qual 40%) but on the H transponders it shows no signal. I might try re aiming the dish, but a couple of weeks ago it was working just fine.

Odd.

Yes
Slightly off Pointing or skewing can cause that
But I still think it's setup issue

Select a different H TP in antenna setup
Like 12414 or 12443
See if Q shows any level
This has no affect on scanning
But at least will tell yo if pointing is the issue

I tried manually scanning 12414 and 12443 no joy. It is not picking up a signal. I dont think it could be a set up issue since nothing changes when I point at 91 except selecting the satellite name. I'm stumped.

I didn't mean to scan 12414 or 12443

Are yo able to select one of these and try to move dish left or right slightly to pickup TP signal

Cuz it appears to me now that it might be a pointing issue
Selecting a (L) pol or (H) while moving dish in a way yo can monitor Q level
Yo can be ponting to something else

I got a question for yo
I hope yo don't mean dual DSS LNB as twin LNB
Cuz if yo are using a twin LNB entire dish must be skewed either clockwise or counter clockwise

If yo are using just one LNB for one satellite then skewing is not applicable

Can yo confirm if yor using Twin LNB or just Single?

No its not a twin: it's just a signal. I'll try and play around with the pointing. When I go to do a scan, DVB Dream lists all the transponders and shows if there is a signal by each one. for some reason, none of the H one show a signal. More to follow.

I think yor pointed to Nimiq-4 or something else
Just try to tweak dish slightly
And select any (L)TP or (H)TP until yor Q -level start to increase

He also said he changed pointing position
I didn't see yo stepping in to help him

Hey Plymouth
Namiq-4 is now on 82W
Maybe it will be for new B#V HD#Turbo
And it had to be Namiq-4 or Echo-4 cuz there is no Vertical freq close to 82W

Namiq-4 was indeed at 82W

I still didn't see yo provide any usless help

Yo know what Diaper Head

"smells worst then you"

First yo had a missing word
Later corrected it with a wrong word

Go work on yor grammar Diaper Head
This is an englic forum MOFO
We ain't got time for Diaper babies here


adam had a highly technical issue yo will never understand
What got my attention that he did all the right things and still had Horizontal pol problem
Somehow he was locked at a new near by satellite
We went thru all the basics and we got the problem solved
Read this thread 10 times so yo can finally understand something about satellites
