    GT-S3DSSR24 should work fine. Uses same userbands as the LNB you have.

    Every tuner needs to be configured to make full use of the LNB. If you don't configure it, it will be in FBC Automatic, i.e loop through mode.

    Attach the file called "settings" in /etc/enigma2 You will need to zip it.

    A guide to attachments is here.

    I hope you don't need advice on how to transfer the file to your PC from the receiver. An also how to zip files.
