I just got a OPENBOX S9. Did a blind scan and came across the following signals

Galaxy 19 11911 H 10525
AMC 6 11842 V 29659
AMC 9 11843 H 26000

Does anyone know what these signals are?

Sorry -- cannot help you on the AMC 6 sat. signal.

On the Galaxy 19 signal (Openbox 9) -- the TP that shows up is the 12061 H 10525 -- then "failed". RTP International is normally on 12060, 12061 H 22000. For me RTP shows up as under TP 12209 H 22000. For whatever reason, some of my TP numbers (are about 148 SR higher than Lyngsat). But all of the channels come in.

Hope this helps.

@HDTV Junkee
If all of your TP numbers are off by 148. Then your LNB FREQ setting in your BIOS is set wrong.

You have your LNB FREQ set to "universal 9750 - 10750" or "10750". When your LNB FREQ setting should be "universal 9750 - 10600" or "10600". That should give the correct TPs across the board. (or vice versa have things set to 10600 when they should be set to 107500). Then you can use Lyngsat defaults <;

Exactly, My point. There is a signal at those locations. But when i try to scan them in. "FAILURE"

All three are most likely data only transponders (either internet or other data streams). Don't scan any channels in on my systems either.

Thanks EM.B. I will fix shortly. Setting is currently 10750 Switch ON. Will change to 10600. I guess it was just a coincidence about 12060 TP.

You are probably right in that the TP in question is a data one. No Channels.
