VU+ Solo with VIX 2.3 image , 1 LNB motorised 110cm Technomate Dish, 0.1db LNB. Have a weird issue with the box.
1. I have a motorised set up and use the Positioner to get the channels. When I leave the latitude and longitude to default 5.100 and 50.67 it works fine, but as soon as i input my location co-ordinates(lat and longitude) and try to retune to 28.2 E and move the positioner,and does not find/lock at 28.2E. It does not pick up the channels at all. I have also checked that the limits are set to off. Also, just to confirm that my latitude and longitude co-ordinates are correct(53.59 East and 2.434 West)
2. The second issue is, when the postioner is left to default it can pick up 28.2 E and 13E, but nothing on 26 E and 0.7 W. When I check the Satfinder on 26E and 0.7 W, the SNR is really low say about 0-20%. It comes up with tune failed messages. I have an updated satellites.xml file with the latest transponder settings.
What I am surprised about is, how am I able to receive channels on one satellite and none on the other if my USALS settings are incorrect. Also, if the LNB is failing, it will not receive channels on 13E when moved from 28.2 E. I have scratched my head and spent about 4-5 hours using various options but no luck!! May be I am missing something!!
