DR HD D15

Ive been testing this receiver's scan against my other blind scanning boxes and while it is a bit slower, it is consistently scanning in more channels than all of the receivers tested so far. I have over a 100' cable run through multiple switches and couplers, etc but this box is definitely a keeper.

C band or ku Rob? I noticed both Dr hd units on ku blind scan would scan in dummy tp with excellent signal but no audio or video.

I definitely want an earlier model Technomate if the scan is even more sensitive than this one.

Both, I was mainly testing my fixed ku dish at 103w and my 7.5' SAMI at 58w. It is most effective on 103w ku with all of the news feeds and how the transponders are spaced. Some of the channels that were weaker it had a little better luck showing a picture. I am running the 144 software. It seems to need about 5db in order to lock but I am going to try and run a direct coax to it and retest it.

The blind scan on the tm 5302 is the most sensitive I have ever tested but its speed is as slow as molasses.

So far the only strange transponder that this is picking up for me is on 91W KU and that's because it scanned in a stronger Bev transponder. Probably a bug where it will scan an encrypted transponder on a fta scan.
