IA5 is the new name for T-5, ie same satellite. Re the specific channel, there are hundreds of channels on that sat. You just happened to scan a different transponder or something. Ie nothing wrong, nothing to fix.

Fortec classic on IA5 has lnb type universal by default. If you're using a standard lnb then you need to set lnb type to standard.

on the classic, change the LNB setting from "UNI" to 10750
