TP setting help

[scflor]

the tp setting on 119 will not stay on 12239. after i change it and click save in changes back to 12224, and thoughts?

[testperson]

Have had the same problem for the past 3 months and have just stopped watching 119.

Yesterday around 10Pm, had a spontaneous channel change and then lost 110 and 91.

Would love to know how to set the TP, high and Low and have it stay when exiting to do a Channel Scan....

the tp is a default setting
if you saved it on only 1 tp then you would only get channels on that tp which would be no more than 15 channels
it is supposed to change

testperson list your settings and what kind of dish and lnbs you are using and will try to help

Dont worry...that is normal. If yo are missing some channels, it may be some other problem. Let us know if you are missing channels and we can sort it out.

Would be great to get the other sat's again.

(have also attempted with Motor OFF, no change)

After setting these, receiving Q at 55 - 78%
When exiting; SAVE SETTINGS , YES, then when moving to Channel Scan, Echo 6,8 and Echo 7 receive Q at 0%.
Return to Antenna set up, all settings are back to the original settings listed under Nimiq 1,3 with no Q for either 6,8 or 7...

Very confusing.

LNB's are Unknown Manufacturer, Dish is No name elliptical All worked for the past year and 6 months.

do you get a signal on all the lnbs????

[testperson]

Yes I get good S and Q with the above settings. as I said Q55 - 78% S is 75-90%

[testperson]

I made a slight mistake, when I said "Channel scan" I should have written Auto Scan!

I have a great number of Channels through Nimiq right now (423); but have no Echo 6,8 or 7 at all, they just won't come up with any Q when highlighting (check Box) them in the Auto scan, Sat list Menu.
