Amiko A6 Combo Hybrid

(It was suggested I post in this section)

I upgraded from a SD receiver to the Amiko A6 Combo Hybrid, to get HD channels.

Using USALS, I inputted my location as 0.0E 51.5N, which I got from using dishpointer.com

Whenever I move to a satellite, it finds no channels or the wrong channels. It was suggested that I first find the nearest satellite , which would be 0.8w Thor. When I move to this satellite, I believe it finds bulgariasat 1.9E.

The dish I am using is a motorised 80cm dish, with a single LNB. The other settings I use are:

LNB - Uni(9750/10600)
12v - off
Diseqc 1.0 - off
Diseqc 1.1 - off
Motor - USALS

Are these settings correct for a single LNB?

The LNB settings look fine. You will need to use the co-ordinates that you were originally using in the technomate. If the dish was set up incorrectly in the first place then inputting the correct co-ordinates now won't work. It looks like your dish is 2.5 to 3 degrees out. You can play with the E/W co-ordinates to try to fix this. What exact channels are you finding at 0.8W? Real examples will help more than guesswork.

Some of the channels are ERT world, Bulgaria, and Radio Vesellina

Right that looks like 1.9e. What settings were you using in the technomate?

[bilh12]

Technomate has similar settings of 0.0E and 51.4N

One of the receivers must be calculating the positions incorrectly. Try adjusting the E/W co-ordinate by 2.5 degrees and see if you can get thor.
