    I have just blindscanned Intelsat 12 at 45.0E without filtering neighboring satellites.
    Result : all azerspace transponders at 46.0E found with a channel list of both satellites.
    I think this is enough to prove it works

    But there is no such file there
    I can't phrase it any clearer then I already did:

    And indeed: in a virgin image there will of course not be a user file in etc/enigma2. It's the user who creates it there.

    The file in etc/tuxbox will be overwritten on every image update (as a system-file should be).

    That is indeed one of the advantages of using real user-files.

    This is not the topic to discuss but there is something wrong with this etc/enigma2 xml file.

    in etc/tuxbox

    If there is a satellites.xml in etc/enigma2 the one in etc/tuxbox will not be used.

    Don't forget: before uploading settings (and specifically a satellites.xml) Enigma should be stopped (init 4) and after the uploading started again (init 3). If uploaded in a living E2 the new file will be overwritten (as is the case with most items, as E2 holds them in live-memory).

    You are right. I deleted the one in tuxbox to see nothing changed.
    Sorry for bothering you at this time of night.

    Hobby what's new, forcing the limits of the dish. Very few channels of my interest at this age. Rarely feed-back to satellites charts. That is why blindscan is important for me, but this device is not reliable yet; only very strong signals caught.

    there should not be a separate enrty in the satellites.xml file for 28.5 east as this all comes under 28.2 east, its all the same network so to speak, if you are using a .xml with 28.2 east and 28.5 east it will cause problems.
    My posts contain my own personal thoughts and opinions, they do not represent those of any organisation or group but my own.

    If you don't like what I post, Don't read it.

    SIMPLES.

    No problems so far
    I just change the satellite angle and name for certain frequencies at 28.2E as 28.5E Eutelsat using dreambox edit. (11220-11680 and 12523-12643)
    The point is you must do the second half first. When finished, you have a new satellite at 28.5E.
    (I have to do this for the signal is weak here. It is only 3-4 steps for motor but the result is satisfying)

    A 1.5M dish has a rather narrow beam, so I can understand OP wants to have two separate positions for optimal alignment to both.

    @pheonix i now understand what you meant by problems: No double bouquets with same name.
    But what i can get here is all one provider: BSkyB (Except Fashion One of Freesat). So i copy both sats to bouquets to move just a few to the top.
    Thanks all for your interest.
