going grazy but this looks like a great site-can find

What sats are you using normally? Is it just sky?

have you read this ??: http://linuxsat-shares.com/ope…-%5B27-march-2011%5D.html
could be what you need ..

As cazuela said, use the file in his post.

To install this channel list, simply transfer the unzipped channel list to a USB Stick, and then insert the USB Stick into the USB port, which is located on the rear of the receiver, then follow the instructions below.

Click Menu -> Tools -> Upgrade By USB, then in 'Upgrade Mode' select 'Misc Files'
then click on 'Select & Upgrade' and select OPTION 1 [TP_PROG] now click the OK button,
when you see a check mark or tick next to the TP_PROG, click the yellow button to install.
Once the file have been installed, reboot the receiver, once rebooted you can then click the Zoom or SatList button, and directly select any satellite from within the satellite data base list.

You need to set your latitudand longitude in the rotor settings Satellite Finder / Dish Pointing Calculator with Google Maps | DishPointer.com Input your postal code and it will tell you the longitute and latitude! Also set it so all satellites use usuals instead of Diseqc! Tell dish to move to Thor! Set you motor latitude to the same! Get a good signal on Thor! Tighten everything up! Then do a sweep and see what satellites you can get!

remember although 19.2? is what it says on the label,,,,your geographical position normally is considered(subtracted depending where you are )
without getting too complicated..if you use USALS ( go to X ) then you need to set the motor to the most southerly sat ( in my case 0.8?W )
I have to move @ 3? to the east of that position for the motor to be able to automatically lock on to the next preinstalled sat position on the motor.
As I live on the Atlantic coast the strong winds blow it off position..
so in the end I just manually move the motor via the remote to the sats I really use ( 28 / 19/13? )
hope I havent confused you more, if so then ...

You shouldnt have to do another satellite scan, when you load the channel list were the channels not there already?

You have probably added more channels on top of the ones that you loaded with the file. Are these new channels working? Are you definetly on 19.2, can you check on a fta channel?

You see the problem with the openbox is that it has limited channel capacity, thats why the file is handy it dosent load all the shite also that you will never watch. Have you tried a different sat? are they working

dont give up yet lol, did you put the dish up or can you ask who did to come around and line up the dish again. My dish has moved thru the years, what i did was get my long and lat, put them in and select a sat. if it was close enough but not bang on i would add or subtract a degree or whatever number to get it bang on. ill upload a pdf of the instuction book for you

You need to go out to that motor and set it to 0...

And then your reference sat is 0.8 west...

Then you enter your details for lat/long...

And if your elevation is correct and your on the arc you will pull in the sats A1!!
