Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
What TP did you use?
I have mid 70's sig and 98 quality and im only catching about 80 channels. Also do you know why you have to use a certain TP? What difference does the TP during the scan make?

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
TP is only used for checking signal and has absolutely no effect on a scan.

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
It doesn't matter what tp you start with it will default and scan all tp's. It is for checking signal and that's all.

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
One more question.....
Quality is achieved by moving your dish from left to right and signal is achieved in elevation?

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
S is connection from your receiver to lnb and Q is your signal strength. So moving the dish side to side up and down to peak the Q reading.

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
When doing this, which should be done first...elevation or azmiuth? Or does it even matter?

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
Those readings should be high enough. I have no idea how many you should get.

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
One last queston, why is it say for instance on TP 12632 I get S of 87 and Q of 74, then I switch to TP12661 and I get S87 and Q of 0? Does this mean there are no channels on that TP, and my signal drops off to 0.

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
It may be that it is now a dead transponder or your receiver just can't read that trans, not enough strength.

Re: Echo3-61.5 How many channels?
No enough strength from the receiver or do you mean strength as in quality as you stated above?
