right .

re flashed the receiver with the 2.0.9 software
all went in working ok

previously set the dish at thor 1 west

bbc hd is at 85%
bbc world is at 63%

then i sent the dish to 30 west ,and it says 74% no picture

looked at the dish and this is where it stopped

think there is definatly something wrong
as all settings are correct
will try and move this manually
and will also check some east satallites

but i think the motor is boned

Have you tried scanning in a few channels?
I wonder if you have a West limit set, so that the dish has reached this and stopped. If you can scan in a few channels, and post them, we might be able to discover if you are on 30W, or another satellite, by checking on lyngsat.com.

[turbonetuk]

scanned a few of the channel numbers you posted

nothing

going to see if i can switch off the motor and move it to 30 west myself
see if the receiver picks anything up

i have a feeling the motor is playing up
so its going to be pointless setting up anything else

[Mickha]

Before you reset the motor can you please try doing a blind scan, on the satellite listed as 30W, and see what channels come up.
Alternatively check lyngsat.com, click on the Satellites, Atlantic, 0W to 61W, link then check a few of the westerly satellites, for frequencies you might be receiving.

with them signal strengths you should be getting a picture on a solo2 .
providing you can clear them if encrypted.
