Does anyone know if Galaxie sport is open or can be unlocked on astra 19e? I can receive sound on this channel but no picture?

Thanks for the info, I have found it now but does anyone know if I can get just english audio? I was watching the football yesterday and had 2 different commentary languages simultaneously and wasn't able to change anything via the language setting?

They'd used the left stereo channel for one language and the right for another. So all you need to do is select either just the left or right (whichever is english) , it will be mono, but least it's english. ![]() Do it by pressing the 'language' button on the TM remote. ![]() Robbo |

Can someone please advise on adding Galaxie Sport to 1w. When I received my Technomate c1500i super it was pre-programmed but it does not have Galaxie Sport on 1w. So this is my first attempt at adding a channel. Using info on "king of sat" I set transponder at 12643 and it comes up as 12643H - should be 12643V - how do I change? I have set VPID at 0612 and APID at 0845, left PPID at 0000. Downloaded latest Technomate 1000 series softcam file to receiver. Any advice?
Thanks.

Hi,
I don't have access to my receiver right now. But a lazy way of doing it is to do a blind scan around the frequency you want. Just set the frequency range to something narrow like 12640 to 12650, I think you can restrict it to vertical transponders only as well. Robbo |

Thanks robbo. Just done a blind search between 12600 and 12750 and it's added a load of additional channels including a couple of sports channels I don't think I had before
. I don't think it has added Galaxie Sports though. Does that mean I can do a blind search on all the different satellites I can access and it will add channels not already programmed? Will it duplicate existing channels? How do I know the full transponder range for each satellite?

It should have found it OK. :?
Yes you can do a blind scan of the other satellites too if you want, and yes it will give access to channels not already programmed. I'm not sure if it duplicates channels or not. (check it and see?) Check on lyngsat for the full transponder range for each sat. Bear in mind though that a blind scan could very quickly fill up your channel memory, so a bit of good house keeping is required. The new channels found are stuck at the bottom of the channel list. Lots of the 'channels' you find may not be listed on lyngsat as they may be feeds etc with meaniningless names. The box also has an autonavigation function, that will blind scan a number of sats automatically. I have never used it though, I magine that it could take a while. |

Thanks again robbo. Done a blind search on 1w TP 10700 - 12750. Channel memory was full so I deleted all radio channels except 28e and done 1w blind search again. Still no Galaxie Sport though
