Input from Pansat 9200HD users

[gmd63]

Just got a Pansat 9200HD a few days ago off of "the bay". Was waiting for one of these for a while.
Seems like a nice unit, and I like it for the most part.

I want to know what people think of its scanning results? is it a good blind scanner or pretty much ok?
From what I am finding is that it is about "middle of the pack" for finding channels... average.

There was a HD game on today I wanted to see(12120V/24740
4:2:0 HD), and it did see it as it was scanning, but at the end when it saves what it has found it would not add it/save it. It was like it did not see it.
I have a different non HD receiver on another TV and it found it and scanned it in no problem (just sound no picture as it is not an HD unit).

What do you all think of the scanning of the 9200?

Works fine for me, especially on S2 with the new blind-scanning board. The only proviso is it seems to like a little more signal level than other receivers I've tried. As I employ amplifiers where appropriate, this is a non-issue for me. Do you have the latest firmware loaded?

I had even added the VPID and APID and it still would not take?

Strange, hope it was just a odd instance. Other than that one issue, I am really liking it.
