Note: The Optibox Raptor does not have any known blind scan problems.
The following comments apply to the Optibox Anaconda and Gekko receivers.
Some people have been reporting slow blind scan speeds with the Optibox Anaconda while other people have said the blind scan is as fast as the Openbox but with more accuracy. It turns out they are both right The Optibox is spending too much time looking at "dead air", but it seems to move very fast on a satellite that has lots of transponders.
Here are a few ways to speed the blind scan up on the Anaconda while we wait for the problem to be fixed:
1. Use a Standard linear lnb with a l.o. of 10750 on the KU band.
2. For Universal lnbs, use 10600 for the l.o. frequency and turn 22KHz ON. This lnb setting will allow the receiver to scan down to about 11550 MHz.
3. Manually set upper & lower scan frequencies. Use 11700 and 12225 for KU band. Use 3600 and 4170 for C band. Other manual frequency combinations may also be used.
Refer to the attached picture for the location to manually enter the upper and lower scan frequencies.
We will ask Fortis to adjust the scan in the following ways.
1. Set the blind scan Symbol Rate lower so skinny transponders below 2000SR may be found.
2. Speed the blind scan up. The Anaconda and Gekko receivers are spending too much time looking at "dead air" during a blind scan.
