Do a fresh bline scan so it picks up the active TP's. Doing a search from the sat index will only use the TP's that were save in the unit.

Unfortunately, Lyngsat goofs up some of those “free” channels on AnikF1
With StarChoice (the Canadian provider that uses Anik F1), there are 2 sets of “free” channels. AMC East is a new channel on StarChoice but you have to have a subscription to them to get that channel in a “freeview” platform
Knowledge, Access, CKUA, Voice Print, Shopping…those are free and any previously activated SC box can get those as long as it wasn’t disconnected with Digital Basic package on it.
Main reason can't get those.I've noticed a few like that say clear but then find out its Digicipher
