    The receiver is pretty neat with the spectrum analyzer. I am able to zoom in to a sliver of the band and narrow it down to each transponder. From there I can lower the graph in order to tune everything at once. The signal meter goes from 0-255. Everything on my graph right now on 99w is around 110 or so. I am not clear on what unit is represented in the scale. The bandstacked lnb doesn't work right with this. Similar to the old coolsat and the x2 where it double scans everything. I see in the scanning it will show a 2db signal in the scan but won't lock it. It seems to be able to lock around 5 but sometimes will stay red at 7.5db and not lock.

    I have been getting an orange signal meter for the signal. Sometimes it is red. Is it supposed to be green usually? I may have to replace a section of coax or a switch. It doesn't like to lock transponders less than 5db or so. I am hoping that with a better signal it will lock with a lower db reading.

    I figured out how to change the oribital position of the satellites in the receiver. You go to dish setting, then toggle to DiSEqC motor. Change that to USALS and press enter. Then scroll to Sat Degree, it will say 0.0E or whatever, there you just type in whatever you want and save it.

    Yeah like it not having been sent, the dude was choking my chain. He apologised yesterday by saying that he was out of town and the he had let go the person that was to have sent it....I definitely don't like the delay but can't wait to test it out.

    The doctor, albeit used, is finally in the house. This came from Russia or was intended for that market as the manual is in English/Russian. It comes with a standard European power cord so I won't need a special UK adapter for this unit. Will give it a whirl and report back.
