Default Re: technomate TM-3100D

I too have seen it working a 90cm dish albeit it is about 10% less signal than before it moved to the different transponder, but on a 60cm dish it seems to be the difference between working on the old one and not working on the new transponder.

Moving the dish to point to Hotbird is not really an option because I believe the channel is not going to stick around on that satelite and the fact there are more free greek channels on hellas sat than hotbird.

I get the feeling the dish may not be alligned spot onto hellas sat. What we may have got away on a 60cm now we can not.

Can anyone confirm it that they can pick it up on a 60cm dish and in the same part of the world as me ?

I might try it on a zone 2 if I have time later on.

OK, tried RIKSAT 39E on zone 2 Sky minidish, no probs at all, coming in loud and clear. Thus a 60cm should work fine.

Hey I'm new to this forum and have joined out of desperation! I have a Technomate 2500 and have tried to re-set the sat co-ordinates according to the 11146/3333 that I have been given by Technomate. I managed to add this as a new TP/Sat but then in the fiddling around I have now managed to lose all of my signal for the other channels!!! Please can you help in plain English?
In the TP/Sat box I still have Hellas and then 8 sets of co-ordinates in the right hand box but then when I go to Advanced Search and click the red "search" button it says that the search has failed
I am at my wits end right now and would be grateful for any help that I can get!
Thanks..............

Have you tried just setting the scan on Automatic and carrying out a network scan?

Sounds like you are having the exact same problems as me when I first started this thread. The way to fix is to litterally remove power (unplug) from your receiver for a minute and plug it back in then you will see a signal on those transponders you had working originally.
for me the new cypriot channel does not work and based on the comments earlier re: it working using sky dish, then surely the dish has an alignment issue.
