    Abm foreign sats

    Is there anyway I can get Abm to work with foreign satellites? I'm having a motorised dish fitted and trying to get my TM Twin ready to go

    ABM only provides you the options that your tuner config allows. Once you setup your tuners, you will have more providers to choose from.

    ABM does not do all providers/satellites. So it is a good idea to also perform normal scans/use premade lists.

    As soon as you set it as Positioner, those other providers will be available in ABM.

    It's aligned to 28.2 at the moment,when the guy aligned the dish he aligned to Thor with his meter,but as he wasn't familiar with the tm twin he didn't know how to set the box up,I managed to get the motor moving and get a lock on 28.2 19 and 13 but if I move it to Thor it doesn't lock onto the signal
