Oh, OK, I guess that makes sense. You might catch the doing some testing.
Probably just saturation testing, but you never know.

AMC-16 is KU/KA

OK.

Also, you have SPACE_1_KC (102.8W) , I think that's just Ka.

I just went through and deleted all the unused sats in my Mercury. I've dedicated the Mercury to be a Ku only receiver, as I have my Ultra slaved for C/Ku. However I left a couple of the C band sats in there, plus a generic C and Ku, which I won't assign to any location, for when I switch it over to the C-band dish (I'm expecting to have to do this, since my Ultra is giving signs of going belly up). But as mentioned in the other thread, after deleting most of the C-band, and unused Ku, I had to go back in with the binary editor, and re-assign DiseqC1.2 sat #s. I added a couple of the old numbers that are in the 20s, and the Mercury seemed to take them, and seems to be working still.
