How to scan net id for Amiko

[McrRed]

I've set up the net config according to the user guide posted here.
I have no channels.

How do I scan for channels given that the net id list does not correspond with the options in the Amiko's firmware?


eg:
Manchester 1 NTL ex C&W 41040 666.750 6.887
Manchester 2 NTL ex C&W 41060 666.750 6.952

but Amiko options are:
TP Index 1/70 etc
Frequency 000.0
Symbol Rate 0000
Modulation QAM 16/32/64/256 etc
NIT Search On/Off
LCN Frequency Scan 000.0

None of the decimal places go far enough!

it will be either
frequency 666.7 or 666.8
symbol rate 6952 or 6887
qam 256
try both and when you get a reading of 90% quality strenth 99% put nit scan on and scan

Fellas, that's great. Thanks I'll give it a try.


Well. I put the numbers in but got no signal. (I knew 506.5 had 90%). Scanned, got nothing.
Tried blind scan and got 4 preview channels.

I'll try a blind scan with NIT next and see what happens.
Hmmm. This time I get 114 possible channels, four actually showing and the rest being scanned one by one and failing. Up to 35/114 as I type this. That's with LCN (LOCATION ?) Frequency set to 000.0 and blind scan.

Ok. 1-70 failed but 70-114 half of them channels. Looks like I'm in business.

Thanks again.
