GTMedia V8 finder for Receiveing DATV
-
Hello,
I also own the V8 (FW at least 1 years old). I can receive the DATV-beacon (2Mbit) with now problem (also LNB changed from 25 to 24 MHz).
What is the size of your dish ( I have 85cm offset) ? Can you receive DW-TV or France 24 from BADR 4 ? (assuming that you are in middle europe - when you are in northern or western EU you wil not receive BADR 4).

I receive BBC Arabic here on my satrx with 55% signal 9db
on BADR4 in Belgium.

Hello,
I have the following settings in my V 8 for the beacon.
I have the same ZF in my LNB like you, so you just can copy-paste my settigs:LNB-Frequency: 5150 (yes this is wrong QRG, but in this way it will work)
TransponderQRG: 4016 Horizontal, symbolrate 2000
DiseqC 1.0 and 1.1 disabled
22k off
Hope you succed.

thanks for the info !

If i calculated wright you must find the wb baken arround the freq of
1.132Ghz on the rx...if the lo freq is correct!!!

http://dd1ku.de/OCTAGON_8008.pdf -----download the qo_100.tar file ----put the channellist in your rx.....
witch satrx have you??

or if you want to place a channellist with the channels of Badr4 for finding the direction of the sat...
download the " Vhannibal motor" and place this settinglist in your rx...

The best way to "point" your dish is for me...
place a "normal" lnb in the dish...
put te BADR4 settings in your satrx....
(motorsettings have the BADR4 settings in the list!!!)
set to BBC Arabic......
point your dish to the maximum signal....
arround 50 to 55% or +-8 to 9 Db on the scalereading of your satrx( will be ok for rx the wb baken ...)
Replace the "normal" lnb with the "modify" lnb....
put the qo_100.tar setting in your satrx....
DONT forget in the setting from your satrx the LNB setting.....CHANGE the lo freq or you DONT rx the WB

I can receive the beacon with the V8 Finder using different antennas, from 80 cm to 1,9 m, and different LNB 's: unmodified and GPSDO modified.
A blind scan discovers the A71A transmission.
It is also possible to receive the SR1000 transmissions, unfortunately no lower symbol rate.
Here is a video I posted on Youtube a couple of weeks ago.

For fine tuning of the antenna pointing and LNB rotation for DATV reception I use the Minitiouner with its comprehensive set of monitoring data.

p.s. in my experience for DATV and RB-TV the best performing LNBs are those "free riding" (i.e. not disciplined) and those who produce a clear musical tone on the CW NB beacon (probably those with no jitter or phase noise)

Can you share the backup of the V8 Finder Usar DB file...
I am unable to receive the QO-100 with my V8 Finder.
