    I think you have found the problem. If you have the Olympic it means that you probably have all the 12422 channels by their SIDs but with the wrong VPIDs and APIDs. Try deleting all channels on that transponder and then re-scan.

    All the 12422 VPIDs and APIDs lie in the 5xxx region. If re-scanning doesn't work see KoS for the correct IDs and add them maually (not sure what editor works with your box though).

    Thanks all for your ideas. Tried the latest 28E channel list and did see the transponder 12422 H on the transponder list on the sat setup menu but no blue bar! So possibly it must be my dish and LNB thats not up to it. But conflicting info as to weather 12422H is on european beam or uk beam! cheers to all

    Hi All thanks for info. Vamos can you get the spot beam in Malta ? Just tried loading latest 28E channel list and 12422 H now shows up on the transponder list but on the sat setup menu it shows no signal. So possibly its dish or lnb but can get Dave with 90% signal. But is 12422 on uk or european beam? There is conflicting info on satbeams, lyngsat, and KofSat

    @ dave 1234,
    This frequency should have been on Euro beam but now no signal at all. I have also tried it on another dish I have being a 1.2 mtr on which I do get signal for Food network free to air 2 channels.
    I notice that since about a week I have lost a lot of signals on these Sats at 28.2 on both dishes. On my 1.8 mtr I used to get about 790 channels when scanned and now only got 634 when i scanned last on Monday. Maybe they have reduced power on all these sats (?)

    @ vamas, no they have not reduced the power this has been caused by the fact that now 2g has arrived all the transponders from Eutelsat have been transferred to 2e,f or g, many to to the Uk beam also other transponders have been switched.

    @ dave1234, as I said I am quite near to you close to Granada, I have 2 dishes a 1.5 and 1.25 mtr Gibertini and the UK spot beam signal is just not strong enough to lock it is so low no quality at all shows on the meter hence no 12422, however when it cools down a bit I am going to realign the 1.5 and will let you know.

    Hope this helps.
