Well I have been testing the Freesat V8 Golden combo for a couple of weeks now ( S2 & T2) Powervu / Tandberg & all other CAS supported,

The Blind Scan is almost non existent & using it with a motor DiSEqC USALS is not very good either (The did not always move to the next selected satellite):eek:

But on the Plus side the V8 Golden combo has enabled me to watch all of the Tandberg+ EPL feeds with no key input from me :thum:

Other keys need to be added manually Power Vu,Bulsat ect,

The receiver is very small & sits nicely on top of the TM5502HD that I use to move the dish & use the V8 Golden as a slave receiver an excellent addition to my Feed Hunting activities :D

what if keys change do u need to add them?
No you just reboot the receiver & the keys update then you can view within 30 sec looks like all the keys have been preloaded in the CAS even the new one's in use over the last few days :D

Excellent pictures in SD transmissions of Arena Sport 1-4 on 39 east the upscaling is the best I have ever seen :)

Far superior to the TM5402HD M3 SD & slightly better than the TM6902HD that up until now I had considered to be very good :thum:

Some feeds on Hispasat 30w are out of ranges.

I suggest to change 11950 to 11990 H -> 11950 to 12040 H

Eutelsat 12 West B (incl. 0.6°)
Once upon a time this was a happy hunting ground for satellite TV sports feeds is slowly becoming a new home for Data Streams only :eek:
https://www.flysat.com/e12wb.php

Intelsat 905 has also gone down the same route Intelsat 905 (incl. 0.8°)
https://www.flysat.com/is905.php

Most of the feeds that used to be on 12.5°west & 24.5°west have migrated to Eutelsat 10A & Eutelsat 7A/7B
Some of the feeds have also moved to ABS-3A but you will need a dish 120 to 180cm for these feeds :eek:
