Hi Ferret
Do you mean what size dish,the dish is 1.2 motorized and is on the apex of the house and its a single lnb and the motor is Technomate TM2600 H-H Diseqc motor.

 

[Ferret]

Need to know what the dish type static or motorised, lnb type for the dishes that will attach to those tuners and if that dish has a motor or not if not what sat position is it pointing at.

 

[sara69]

The dish has a motor,I havnt just had this dish put up recently .I had a vu before ,and I would say the motorized dish has bee up for about 3 or 4 years.The problem I have is that I can see the channels on astra 28 but none of them will open,that's why I thought that I might not have got the Tuner set up properly. Does that make sense ?

 

[Ferret]

Do you see signal strength even with the channels not clearing and is your motor a diseqc motor ?

 

[sara69]

Hi Ferret
I think it is a diseqc motor,there are 2 cables coming in from the lnb.When I had the vu we did it with Usals from Tuner A and Set Tuner B like Tuner
Loop Through To Tuner A .I can see the channels like bbc1 and all other channels on Astra 28,but I don't see a signal strength for any off the channels when I go in to Positioner Setup
