    Just got EBSpro running and the moree feed signal dropped. Could still see pics on GT, meter reads 9.5. But EBSpro can't lock for some reason. Couldn't find any other transponders in that low range, but will continue playing around and see what it comes up with. Will try different LNBF also, cheers.

    UPDATE: Think I haven't setup EBSpro correctly. The RF scan does what it should, but the blind scan isn't, so will have to figure out what to change.

    ok thanks for heads up. Will order bigger dish anyway. Not sure whether 1.8 or 2.4. Do you think these feeds will end up back @ 152e?

    Those readings are off by 100 your lnbf isnt on the correct l.o . Be sure that your TBS device is also running the correct updated drivers

    EBSPro is known to report incorrect readings in the tabular scan report for most TBS devices except the Pro grade such as TBS6903 and TBS6983.
    All of your Ch. 9 feed frequencies are showing as 0.00 dB whereas they should have a value.

    If you want to get the correct SNR dB level right click the frequency in the table and choose the "Analyse" option from the drop down menu. In the "Analyser" tab you should see the SNR in dB dynamically fluctuating by +/- a fraction of a dB, this is the correct level.

    Also, same comment as apsattv, your L.O. setting is out by 100 Mhz, probably from a previous LNB or another satellite configuration.

    Cheers Pommie, yeah was confused by the zero SNR as when I clicked on, was still able to watch the channels. The LNB settings I had were incorrect also.

    Hey apsattv, if you are about and have time could you please scan 169e 11242H7500? Not expecting a race meeting today but could be something from NSW? Signal not locking for me, and bigger dish not quite arrived yet...

    UPDATE: Reading thru previous posts it is same frequency that greyhounds used last week, so very likely that again.

    If you are in the footprint there areabout 15 signals running, all the time, a needle finder should have no issue pinging when moved to 169E.

    The problem is some are using meters that need frequency info setup and all except the race feeds are ACM/VCM mode which some "digital" meters dont handle

    Agreed, The Optus satellite at 156E is going to be really strong with lots of channels on it.
    Peak the dish on 156E then facing the sky slowly turn the dish to the left and use some type of meter to detect any activity.

    A meter will show the 156E signals diminish as you move off the satellite and pick up again as you approach 152E, subject to their being activity on it at the time.

    Lyngsat is dependent on contributions from users to upload their findings.
    If nobody has bothered to scan 152E since the old D1 moved there and upload their findings to Lyngsat there will be nothing listed.

    Yes they still use it for feeds your best chance is to look on the weekends and obviously it needs a lnb that covers the 11ghz band

    You will also need to be in Eastern Aus with a dish at least 90CM
