    BT Sport 2 certainly does not, and has not for some time, BT Sport 1& 3 do.
    Eleven HD & Eleven Extra Hd both open, Eleven Sport does not for me.
    I am using Spider 9000 with IKS.

    I can confirm both the above channels don't open as well on 1k$, BT2 opens ok with MSCAM though.

    @Mobley2

    Do you have the correct TP Settings for BT Sport 2, as it is 11344 H 27500, BT 1 & 3 are on 11343 V 27500, and all 3 are clearing for me with Hitech 9000.

    @KARABANGA

    Eleven Sports HD & Eleven Extra on Hotbird are clearing for me on 11488 H 27500 with Hitech 9000.

    Hi, Just to Add,

    You guys can keep an eye on individual transponder changes and updates by using the excellent Channel editor 2.1.1 by Superstarmac in the Files / Tools section. It takes current internet downloads of any selected Sat and frequencies you want to compare and look at.
    To use it New / Internet Database / Advanced download / Add / Select Satellite Position / Add Satellite / Download Internet Database / OK. Check and compare to your problem channel frequencies. You can then rescan the new updated individual frequencies.

    Thanks Aldo, yes I am on the correct frequency, it worked great up to the last changes in frequency. I was hoping that it just needed
    the system to be updated, but it never happened. Perhaps it is just down to the different way the older Spiderbox and the newer Hitech
    operate, sad because I was really missing my MotoGP with English commentary.

    Hi Thanks for all the replies but i still dont understand why they work with Mscam and not IKS although they are the same channels. Maybe IKS needs a new patch.

    Regards

    " Maybe IKS needs a new patch. "

    It is highly unlikely that there will be a new patch for the Spiderbox 6000, as the IKS was for older spiderbox's, the newer spiderbox's use the MScam, probably the only way you will be able to get those channels with IKS will be to subscribe to the V a s i k s Forum, which I believe casts £50.

    Hi The newer Spiderboxes can use either IKS or Mscam..ie depends which one you prefer. problem is IKS can also open channels which Mscam cannot. It will be cheaper for me to get an Mscam account rather than pay 50 pounds but then i will lose some channels which only IKS can open..I suppose its swings and roundabouts really.

    regards

    As I am using Vasiks IKS patch on my Spiderbox 9000 and not opening these channels ,I doubt, that they would open
    on the Spiderbox 6000 using the same facility. I am open to be proven wrong on this assumption.

    Hi I am still using my Spiderbox 9000HD, those channels are opening for me using *ks. I find them more stable than *scam on Hitechbox 9000, however since *scam had their maintenance shutdown a couple of weeks ago they have worked well also.

    This also happened a couple years ago when BT Sport 2 changed frequencies, it was several months before 1k$ was updated and worked, then earlier this year it moved frequencies and was lost again, I cant clear 11 sport and extra on H/B either with 1k$.

    Hi. I am sure that Eleven Sports HD was opening with IKS a few weeks ago using the present frequency. I think i will try an earlier patch for IKS when i get home in a few days and see what results we get. Regards

    Hi have to agree with TonyO all open except 2, I did a new scan to check frequencies had not changed (no changes) I had several channel numbers for 2 so I checked them all (sometimes you can find one that will open) but it seems none will open. I have to admit I do not use this channel very often so I was unaware when I typed #11.
    I was a bit concerned that we should not be discussing what opens on *ks and *Scam if so I must apologise.

    As Skomedal has stated above only the admin on the v a s i k s forum will be able to tell you that, however you will have to join that forum to find out, and if they do it will cost you at least £50.
