    Hello

    I had another move and reinstalled the antenna again. (I have a sat finder). Unfortunately, the decoder never showed me even 1% quality with a signal strength of up to 80%. I did a reset. Now it displays Signal strength 75%, quality 65%, satellite hot Bird but does not download channels.

    Please help.
    Regards.

    If it's not downloading channels, then it's not the satellite.

    This is not information from the satellite but from the decoder software.

    I went to the nc+ website for instructions, I don't see any problems with the installation.
    If you reset the tuner, you need to reprogram it.
    You go to the menu, select - settings - installation - antenna ...

    The decoder automatically downloads the channel list each time it is turned on.

    Well, he will roll like this ... If you claim that the antenna is set correctly ON THE RIGHT SATELLITE, then you have a damaged decoder.

    Who told you that?

    My compass, protractor, ruler, converter angle, sat finder, data table for my city. there is only option that one minute left or right or one degree up or down is the satellite next to hot bird. Do you know anything about it?

    The antenna is 100% wrong. I assume you're picking up a signal on frequency 10719?

    And these decoders are so "automatic" that the Subscriber cannot scan the sky himself?

    Because if it is possible, you have to do it, and then substitute the searched channel names, e.g. for the KingOfSat website.

    And if you can't, connect the decoder to someone with the correct installation and rule out the fault before you visit the Operator's point.

    Yes, decoders are "automatic" and they download the channel list, which is imposed by the operator and it is not possible to program anything.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around issues faced with the nc+ NCP-4740SF decoder after a reset, where the user reports that the device does not download channels despite showing adequate signal strength and quality from the Hot Bird satellite. Various responses suggest that the problem may not be with the satellite but rather with the decoder's settings or installation. Users recommend checking the antenna alignment, restoring factory settings, and reprogramming the decoder. It is noted that the decoder automatically downloads the channel list upon startup, and if the antenna is correctly positioned, the decoder should function properly. Ultimately, the user acknowledges that the antenna was incorrectly set up, leading to the issue.
