ITV3 not coming in on Astra 28.2?

boardtc

My Dad has a https://www.revez.eu/product/revez-hdts860-se-combo-receiver/

He only has the satellite connected. ITV3, his favourite, dropped for him, I'm not sure when. The other day I did a single satellite scan on Astra 28.2, same as previous and it re picked up everything with some different channel numbers. ITV1, ITV2, ITV4 all fine, but ITV3 was again showing blank.

Does anyone know what might have happened?

Frequency has changed.

I never notice channel movement with ABM in use on Enigma2 boxes.

Great. Some people have other boxes though.

An odd retune is no great hardship.

The likes of

Free TV from United Kingdom - LyngSat

shows all frequencies.

Bookmark Kingofsat for all channel movement if a channel is lost.

Thanks very much. I did not see an option to have a separate frequency for 1 channel when I did a single satellite scan. I'll have another look at the settings next time I'm down in his gaff.

I can't get any of the channels on 11344 H 27500

New dish and LNB.

I only watched Poirot on ITV 3 but if Talking Pictures goes over to that frequency then I'm chucking the TV.

Did you do a new scan to pick up the new transponder as it listed movement a month ago.

Did you scan specifically for 11344 H 275000?

New scans, cleared out all the transponders and started from scratch.

No big deal. YouTube is my main channel.

We are down to 10 barely watchable FreeSat Channels and Talking Pictures plus all the rubbish that RTE has to offer. If we lose any more transponders then Her Indoors might want to have a conversation with me! 😮

again. Did you specifically scan that particular transponder?

ITV3, SD or HD not seen here on a rescan either.

Many other channels showing on 11344 H

Weird!

dxhound2005

Many other channels? It is just six versions of ITV1 HD plus ITV3 HD.

11344 V is a lot of channels.

Several TNT Sports and one BT Sport, but no ITV1 or 3

Maybe it is not really connecting at all as those channels might be 'left over' from some time ago. They are all encrypted so I never accessed them.

SOLVED:

It was scanning DVB-S so changed it to DVB-S2 and got 9 channels available.

There are no encrypted channels on either 11344 H or V transponders.

Something wrong with your installation.

Go to King of Sat and try to identify which transponder you're seeing

dxhound2005

Look at the link I put above for 11344 H, Recently Removed information. If you know how, you should delete the transponder. Then create it again and scan it on its own.

Johnboy1951

It was trying to scan DVB-S and not DVB-S2.

All good.

You say you are getting 9 channels on 11344 H. I only have 7.

Johnboy1951

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/122655363#Comment_122655363

Just looked again now and only 7 present …….. ITV1x6 and ITV3x1

When I posted there were two Sky encrypted channels showing also …… I did look more than once.

Update:
According to the Mux list on TVHeadend, there are 9 services on that mux, so I guess I was not imagining things.
Maybe if it is rescanned it will revert to 7 services?
Maybe later if I get the chance.

EDIT: I did a rescan and the mux list still shows 9 but the services list shows only 7 for that frequency.

Weird!

😃
