Fox News missing on Nimiq1

[cube27]

I have a Viewsat Ultra and Invacom QPH-031 operating with a 7' mesh dish. It is my backup unit which is getting a lot of work lately. I Don't have any problems with any channel or satelite that I know of, but when I turn to Nimiq 1, and scan the channels I cannot get Fox News channel. I got a new LNB, checked the focal length and aligned it with a laser. Have signal of 61 and quality 62. I get channel 506 and 508 but no 507. When I go to edit the tp it shows no channels. Blind scan doesn't help. The one channel that I really want - I can't get - and it is driving me crazy. Any ideas are appreciated.

Wow! Imagine that. Someone actually complaining that they're NOT getting the Faux News channel. Amazing!

TLK :cool:

Are you sure you are receiving the H Polarity channels? 506 and 508 are V polarities. Channel 507 is H Polarity at 12268 Mhz, it works here on a CW600S

FOX NEWS, fair balanced, & unafraid. Best damn news on tv, the only one that gives a fair & balanced report............................

I am missing all channels on that transponder. Looking at other Horizontal transponders, some I get channels for, some I don't. What's up with that? Is my receiver pooched? I only got it a few months ago and have used it sparingly. Any help is appreciated.

You are brainwashed. Faux News may be unafraid, but it is nowhere close to fair and balanced.

did you try scanning that particular transponder?

The problem is NONE of the news is fair & balanced But Fox is as fair & balanced as any other news channel :D

It may just be a sun spot or solar spot...
I lost channels and just did a scan of the sats...all came back

good luck

But really a news channel?

Hey you hi-jackers, someone start a poll on this one, would be a good laugh.

You are right, I apologize for the hi-jacking, you're also right about the poll, lol........:cool:

Rescanned oodles of times over the last few weeks. I am having difficulty putting my hands on my manual, how do you rescan an indiviual transponder? Thanks!

Go into channel scan, select your sat, turn off network search, select the 'tools' at the bottom, then select what you want to scan
fox news is on 12268
apologize for hijacking the hijacked thread :D

[cube27]

This didn't help either. But thanks for all the help.

Are you getting any of the channels on that transponder? surely fox news is not the only channel you can't get? If you can find out what else you are missing it would help isolate the problem
u sure your dish is aimed correctly and your settings are right?
