    I think I have found the issue. When I check for the Netherlands channels like fox sports 1, the frequency is 11739. I have check on 11739 V and there is no signals. Do you know what I need to do?


    Do I need to contact satellite company to adjust the dish on the wall?

    Thanks for the help guys. I have select on manual scan -> single satellite -> 23.5east astra3b -> network scan -> yes -> clean scan -> yes so when I pressed on scan button, I'm getting Skylink / M7 Group - Czechoslovak and Telekom Srbija - Serbian satellite provider on hotbird 23.5 East. There are only 204 channels. No Netherlands channels are display on the list.


    Any idea??

    Hi all,


    I need your help. I have got a problem with searching for the satellite channels. When I use automatic search to search for the channels on hotbird 7 East, 9 East, 13 East, 16 East, 19 East, 23.5 East, 39 East, alot of sports and other channels did not show up on the search list especially sport klub 1, 2, 3 serbia, play sports 1,2, canal sports 1,2,3,4 poland, sky sports 1 and 2 italy, idman tv, Cosomote sport...etc.


    And alot of Netherlands channels did not show up on the search for the hotbird 23.5 East as well. It will only show Czech Republic channels and some Croatia channels.


    I am using 80cm dish it have got a very strong signals and I am also using the motor to change the hotbird. I am using openatv 6.4 image.


    Do you know why the channels doesn't show up on the automatic search?


    Does it got blocked or do I need to update the xml file?


    Any advice would be much appreciated.


    Thanks in advance.

    He explained that it depends on the house and position of the dish, as well as how far do you want to drive the dish...


    Bigger usually is better... More flexibility, to move the dish left/right...

    Oh right. I can only get 80cm dish as I have permission to put on the wall and I can't get more than that.


    Do I need to get a mesh dish or a solid dish??


    I am thinking to get between 40cm and 80cm wall mount to allow the dish to have more room when I move it to the left and right. If you can advice me what size I need to get that would be very helpful.

    Oh right. I might install the dish between the shed and the fence as there is no leafs or tree so I will move the dish a bit higher when I put the dish in the lower ground. Will that works?


    Can you let me know how many lnbs do I need?


    I will pm you my zip code if you need it.

    Wow, thats alot. I might get 4 or more lnbs depends on how many channels I will get. I might get 90cm mesh dish to put it in the back garden because my area have strict rules as no more than 80cm will be allowed.


    Will the 90cm dish works when I put the dish on the lower grounds in the beside the shed in the back garden that no one will be able to see it?

    south uk ?

    if yes, as i can see, you can receive most beams of the above satellites, in good reception.

    possibly you can do it in 90cm, you may need slim lnb.


    also (we forgot to writte above) you need an multi lnb holder...


    Yes, south east of uk. I might get 90cm dish to put it in the back garden if I dont have the permission to put 80cm in the front wall.


    Will the 90cm dish work on the lower ground on my back garden?


    How many lnbs do I need to get when I get multi lnb holder?
