    How long should a multisat service scan take?

    Hi,
    Been scanning for 75 mins now and its at 14%. Is this normal? It seems to be scanning every satellite known to man even though lots of them are outside my limits.

    Following options are available to you:

    When setting up your tuner, use the "USALS selecting satellites" option.

    When scanning, you can use multisat and only enable the ones you want to scan.

    Even though its taking forever I'm a bit slow to back out now. Will it save all channels found the way I'm doing it ? and how long would the new scan take if I did back out?

    I don't scan all sats, so cannot say how long it will take. AFAIK, as I know, exiting will save what has been scanned already. Please wait for confirmation.

    I normally just transfer the lamedb from Vhannibal's list and add to it using ABM.
