I've been crazy busy over the past few weeks, but I did manage to fetch Iceberg's factory firmware post and load it.
Works great. ATSC scans are much better now- can now repeat Iceberg's results of a single scan with 1000 KHz. I haven't had a receiver connected to my system in several weeks, however, can't see anything on T5. I can see others but nothing in the clear yet.
Now this is PURE torture. Has any 8000HD owners out there checked out the Manual Scan menu?
Modulation options: "DVB-S QPSK", "DVB-S2 QPSK (NBC)", "DVB-S2 8PSK (NBC)"
What is interesting about this is the FEC options for each:
DVB-S QPSK: Auto, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8
DVB-S2 QPSK (NBC): 1/2, 3/6, 2/3, 3/4, 4/5, 5/6, 8/9, 9/10
DVB-S2 8PSK (NBC): 3/5, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6, 8/9, 9/10
Does this mean we can receive DVB-S2 8PSK but not DVB-S 8PSK?
Has anyone tried scanning a known transponder for an 8PSK signal to see if it will work?
Putting this on a menu w/o hardware capability seems so unlikely.
Comments?
