Re: 129w

You might be thinking of 123W which is a true fta sat, however they have gone inot bankruptcy so you likely won't get anything on 123 anymore. 129 is dn's HD sat.

Re: 129w

Hi Eddieblue, still searching the skies, good for you brother. Okay, Lyngsat Galaxy 27 - White Springs TV TP12027H SR 2920-1/2 Make sure that matches up and Auto TP is on. I've noticed sometimes you switch to different channel to different TP and there a pause before channel will kick in. Bill of Oz will have to straighten us out on this one. lol (P.S.) You and I need a motor!

If galaxy 27 is not in your receivers list then you need to add it in manually, then you can also add in the TP info listed above, make sure you have that TP selected while aiming

"should" is the key word here.....lol

yes it should, but i have had some receivers miss it with a blind scan.....some receivers blind scan better than others.....

in this case seeing as there is only one channel there its best to just enter in the TP info yourself and then do an auto scan or sat scan......
