Give us a list of the channels that you can receive after doing a new blind scan

I have no signal on Galaxy 19 several days ago. I am in Ontario Canada.

Yesterday, I came out to check my 36" satelite disk using my Satlink (electronic satelite finder). Autoscan of Satlink found 13 TV channel at the current position of the disk. No improvment by moving the disk around to find better signal.

As autoscan found some TV channels, I believe that my disk position is OK. And with this thread, I found that I am not alone thus this satelite must have problem. Signal might be too weak to reach Canada???

All 22 TPs strong and solid here with the 31" dish.

Yesterday night, the detailed blind scan helps to bring back all channels. It works like before now.

As I still have the list of previous transponders in my Satlink, I will check and compare blind scan transponders with previous transponders. Look like only one of them unchanged while all other transponders are changed on this satellite.

The followings are previous transponders that are not good anymore: 11874, 12060, 12090, 11789, 11836, 11867, 11808, 11997, 12022, 12177, 11912, 11998, 12029 and 11961 MHz.

The following are good transponders from my last Detailed Blind Scan: 11842, 11936, 11966, 12122, 12152, 11929, 12053, 12084, 12115, 12146, 11708 and 11801 MHz.

Note that I do not have 22 good transponders and Quality of these 12 good transponders are not very high (55 to 68). I will fine tune my disk to optimize the signals. As all of my favorite channels are there, fine tune is not quite needed to be done right away.

With the 36" dish you should be able to receive all 22 active transponders. More fine tweaking is needed, and is the LNB skewed as well?

 

[sar2012]

Yes, I will fine tune the dish and adjust LNB when the Sarnia weather is warmer. Thank you to all of you for advise.

This happened to me at about the time it did for you. I noticed that there was some snow on the bottom 15 to 20% of the dish. All other transponders were coming in albeit a little weaker. This transponder wasn't coming in. I cleaned the snow off and the signal came back and I got EL Etejah back which is on this transponder. Just thought you might want to look into this possibility.

Thank you for the advise. My dish is clean.
