Hi, I'm a VU+ noob so please be patient with me.
I'm having issues where where satellite finder cant lock onto various transponders at 28.2E, I'll give an example latter in this post.
My old setup was a qbox mini HD with a single line to a shared dish (4 flats) the dish has a quad LMB, the qbox is able to lock onto all active transponders at 28.2E so all channels are available.

I have just received a VU+ solo2 and have tried various images with the latest drivers.
I have tuner A setup as:
config mode = simple
mods = single
sat = astra 1d/2a/2b/2d/eb1 (28.2e)
send Diseqc = no

as an example when I do a satellite finder on:
(should be Sky2)

Sat: 28.2
System: DVB-S2 (or DVB-S)
Freq: 12207
Inversion: Auto
Sym Rate: 27500
Polarization: V
FEC: 2/3
Mudulation: QPSK
Rolloff: 0.35
Pilot: Auto

I get a fluctuating SNR between 0% and 99%
AGC: 45%
BER: 0

on the qbox the same satellite finder locks and shows a steady SNR 83%
Many other channels are fine both vertical and horizontal polarization.

Had an issue on one of my boxes when I swapped over to twin cable and one of them was showing zero.

The wire was too proud and little bit of snipping and worked perfectly.

Its likely to be an issue with the F plugs and try reseating them.

I had this problem too mate, when connecting both inputs to a quad lnb on a sky dish (both were connected to a sky + box and work faultlessly) I was getting 217 services found on a search, when I changed to searching on tuner B I got over 950. I eventually made Tuner A connected to my motorised dish and Tuner B connected to my sky dish, everything works fine now. Its a bugger setting up the tuners!
