Nugde your dish over a small bit to the right from 10 east m8.Then your do better on your scanning sounds to me your still on 10 east,& not pulling enough signel from 9 east.

You should find the whole TVTEL package.

. . . TVTel as per my post of 27 June!
I did max the signal on 9E (SkyLogic test-card) but will try sending the dish a bit further W to try to detune of the 10E signals.

Indeed, but I'm confused now - are you just looking for the TVTel channels in Nagra, or everything? I thought you reported 'excellent reception' on the 27th?

I must say that I haven't even looked at these myself yet, but I read that some if not all of the package was open in Nagra (although it's clearly simulcrypted in Conax.)

Conax for sure, but the EMU is a little flakey around these channels.
It did have the unlocked symbol up for a bit but didn't open, also flicked over to nagra once but again failed to open.

Apologies for any confusion. Yes, TVTel comes in fine, all in Conax as stated above although with Discovery showing as Nagra & Conax but which also does not clear.
The test channels are also shown as encrypted (TM1500) but seem to be FTA (showing Fashion TV and Viva).
I'll leave this one for now and see how it develops!
Regards to all,
JK

THe Portuguese channels are not transmitting - there is only the original Skylogic testcard today. Were these only tests?
