    one problem when you do this is that when you connect the vu to the motor , the vu will move the motor to where it thinks that thor is

    so when trying this , one option is to leave the spiderbox connected and connect the vu to the spider loop out , then place the spider in standby , if the motor still moves then leave the spider on as well, on one of those affected channels, then check if the spider and vu can both see that one channel, rinse and repeat for any others , so the spider is tuning the dish in and the vu is a slave to the spider

    another option is to turn off the motor in the vu and have it set to single satellite , thor 0.8w , so it thinks its on a fixed dish

    and yes tuners can and do vary , plus there are 4 lnb states to consider as well

    HIGH - V
    LOW - V
    HIGH - H
    LOW - H

    where V = Vertical and H = Horizontal

    13v and 18v are the voltages for high and low

    I suppose it may well be that the VU tuner isnt as good as the spider

    Can you please post frequency details, of the two channels mentioned, on Thor 0.8W, CGTN and Publika, as I can't seem to find them.

    I think I've now found them:

    CGTN 12418 V 28000
    Publika TV 11747 H 28000

    Are these the channels you are referring to?

    both of those channels work fine on both my spiderbox 6000 and my vu solo2 here in m/cr on a 1.1m dish

    good signals on both , sig and quality are quite high and as good as al jaz english , sly news , bbc world news

    Yes, they are the two I was referring to, but I can see the two channels only on the Spider, VU-Zero will not even find the signal for Thor 0.8W let alone the two channels..lol

    I will try the master and slave option as suggested over the weekend and report back to the forum.

    What image do you have loaded? Open Black Hole has a satellite finder option, which usually works, when manual scan doesn't.

    Try Thor 1W, as 0.8W might not be listed in your Satellites.xml file.
