    28.2E Sateliite question

    I use my duo box to operate my Sky subscription.

    My question is i see a lot of transponder changes on the forum.... What satellite does sky use , is it Astra 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D ?
    Any others ?

    I only want to know so when updates come out i know which is relevent to me. I only use the Sky minidish

    Thanks

    yes 28.2 east and 28.5 east are the locations allocated to sky uk and freesat etc. all of the satellites broadcasting from this location are the ones we receive our TV from in the uk, bar a steerable beam that points into northern africa that is.

    (14h06) Sky Digital: A new channel has started in DVB-S VideoGuard: Sky One +1 (United Kingdom) on 12110.00MHz, pol.H SR:27500 FEC:2/3 SID:1403 PID:521/669 English,649 English.

    Im trying to get this channel but when i manual service scan although i put the info in to search it does not find. I do have mr mister bouquet installed, because this channel is not in bouquet is this why it wont find?

    do your scan on the details as in the above screenshots, it should find 19 services. then look in the all channels section ( red button ) and see if it's there.
