Question Help with Technomate TM-5400 C1+ USB

Can someone please help me, I've literally been trying on this receiver all day.
The problem is I can't seem to get a lot of channels on this receiver. This is on the satellite setup menu.
I'm on 19.2 E,
the transponder says [1] 10.790(v)/21.980,
LNB power on,
LNB type universal
LNB freq 9.750 / 10.750
22 KHz Auto
DISEqC 1.0 off
DISEqC 1.1 off
level is showing 94%
quality is showing 93%

BUT when I do a scan I can't seem to find a lot of the channels which are supposed to be on this satellite including Premiere Sport?? Has anyone got any ideas what I have got wrong, I'm new to this and its doing my head in, lol as I've tried everything to my thoughts.

What channels are you getting and what is their frequency?, you are probably pointing the dish at the wrong satellite.

The first one is BBC 1 W Mids 10.790V 21.980
There seems alot of the sly ones there which are encripted
There is one the call Zone Horror 11.261H 27.500
But most of the foreign ones which are listed in the What Satellite magazine are not there.

You have the dish pointed at 28E you need to swivel it round a bit to 19.2E.

From behind, right by about 10 degrees and up a bit, adjust for max quality signal one one of the FTA channesl on 19.2E.

Cheers Robbo, as soon as I saw you had put that I tried it with my meter and yes it was on the wrong satellite. All sorted now, many thanks.
