Transponder sensitivity
I've noticed that I can't get ALL the transponders on most satellites (since I'm in Alaska). For example, even though a blind scan of AMC4 identifies 32 transponders, I have no signal with the first 10 (and between 80 and 95% SQ on the others). So, I guess that's what's happening when the Sathawk can't identify a satellite, huh? Is there any way to get it to manually look at different transponders? I have one of the new 0.2 dB noise envelope universal LNBs on order. Will that help pick up the other transponders?
