On the subject of CNN, it has been breaking up with very bad signal here for the last few days on Sky channel 506. Anyone else having this issue ?

My CNN always breaks up when it’s raining outside or any bit of wind. It’s the only channel it happens to

TopTec · 09-08-2019 03:09PM

Mine too, happens to 505, CNBC too.

CNN HD is unwatchable here all the time now regardless of the weather, I never really noticed an issue with it before when it was raining.

Clitheroekid · 13-08-2019 09:02PM

Not possible to tune it in on my free to air satellite system

Johnboy1951 · 13-08-2019 10:30PM

CNN HD good here on FTA.

martin6651 · 13-08-2019 10:32PM

There is some evangelist channel going up FTA in HD soon. It's called LoveWorld HD.

The frequency for this channel is 11611 23000 H 2/3. The SID for it is 55405.

Also; I want to know what is going on with a channel with the SID 7100. It is still blank on my FTA receiver.

Similar issue with poor reception CNN HD (FTA) Occurred just this week.

Sig quality fine & you can confirm Feq settings etc are good, see atach.

Skew markings read 1 to 5,see attch, assuming these are the degrees.
Gradually rotating from 1 to 5 makes no improvement. thoughts ?

King of Sat reports "Switched standard" on 2019-08-08. ??

fryup · 16-08-2019 10:17AM

you get signal quality of 83% and it still breaks up? thats odd

what make & model sat receiver have you got?

Amiko Mini combo extra, all other channels stable.

Seems to have occured after freq update 2019-08-08. I see all the traffic here re CNN started on that date.

Interesting

. I'l await further input here before deleting and re scanning next week.

Just wondering ...... why is the aspect ratio showing as 4:3 if the channel is HD then should it not show in 16:9?

Gerry Wicklow · 22-08-2019 11:02PM

Further to the changes that upset Quest HD, Freesports HD and France 24HD
TP changes on 11426 V 29500, 8/9, DVB-S2, QPSK seems to be so they can accommodate S4C HD which is now testing as 52565
(useful for rugby or so I'm told

)

Thanks for that head's up ....... can be a useful channel at times

Tigerandahalf · 23-08-2019 09:17AM

Is S4C not in HD already? It is on freesat.

Harry Palmr · 23-08-2019 09:26AM

Changing to DVB-S2 presumably.

Yes it is already available, but this may be an upcoming TP change.

Harry Palmr · 30-08-2019 04:04PM

S4C has gone DVB S2 so that's another channel my box can't deal with.

Using an Amiko mini combo, will I have to change my box to pick up these DVB S2 channels?

Thanks

Should already be DVB-S2 - it's been around for years so you are probably already picking them up

Thanks fritzelly, I'll try a rescan and see what happens. Should I be able to pick up Freesports and Quest as well?

Yes just manually tune in for that transponder. There are 4 channels on it.

DVB-S2 11426 V 29500 QPSK

Is anyone having trouble tuning in these on a standard SkyHD box? If I tune these channels in on Other Channels I get a no signal received message. However the versions of France 24HD and Quest HD on the EPG are perfect. I've also checked the signal strength/quality of this transponder in the installer menu and it's pretty good. So have Sky found some way to block HD FTA services to other channels? I remember the same problem with BBC Wales HD as well.
