    I didn’t like the spectra, since NF was 3-4 times too low.

    You have already received a lot of spectra, but still haven't bothered to try changing the registration parameters, for example, SRmin SRmax.

    In the absence of low-speed transponders, dF is unreasonably underestimated. Making dF = 1000 kHz - the time of the formation of the spectra will decrease by 3 times.

    You are still too lazy to double click on peaks of unlocked transponders, for example 4000 H

    I am not too lazy to click on peaks, there are no rules in this topic that says it is mandatory to click on peaks.

    You are thinking that everyone has to follow your rules, forget that idea, I do not follow your rules.

    Here is the result of another Ka-Band D scan of 7.0 East with an XMW LNB

    The LNB_NF value for the XMW LNB was reduced from 1.50 to 0.75 which might have locked an extra transponder?

    I will answer your questions.


    Q1 - Yes, I read the 1st 10 pages of this topic and I downloaded the manual.

    Q2 - Does not apply, answer to Q1 was YES.

    Q3 - I have no comment about messages 1174, 1175 and 1176. The reason I have no comment is that I have not repeated the manual blind scan.

    I will run the repeat experiment as soon as possible in the next 1 or 2 days.



    Now, I have another comment:

    The IQmonitor topic is complex, it is 60 pages long and the posts are in several languages.

    Some new users of the tool may find it difficult to follow the topic and it is natural that they will have questions.


    I ask you my questions as you are the creator of the tool and you know all the answers.

    It is a simple logic, for the best answer ask the person with most experience.


    Thank you for providing the answer to my question, I will set the Noise Level at -65.




    Good health, drink more coffee, if not coffee, drink more vodka !

    I have a question, can any of the expert guru's please help?


    When I run a spectrum in HR mode I want to get the slider to below the lowest RF level of the spectrum so that all the spectrum is analysed including the low levels. To move the slider with the mouse takes a few seconds to complete and in some instances the HF spectrum mode has travelled past some of the low level signals and not analysed them.


    Is there a way to pause the HR analysis so that I have enough time to move the slider to below the RF baseline? I have tried setting the level in the system panel but when I click the spectrum button it seems to go to a default setting and then starts the HR analysis and I lose the analysis of some of the spectrum.


    I have attached a screen capture of the spectrum and the system panel below.


    Thank you for any support.

    I am not sure if I understand what the "manual" blind scan is? Is this just a blind scan of the range 3700 to 4200 MHz or something different?

    Could you please explain, my knowledge of the IQmonitor program is still below the average level.


    Thank You

    Here are some spectra and a transponder table from an IQmonitor scan of AMC 11 at 131.0 West in C-Band for both horizontal and vertical polarity.

    I meant comparing two tables of transponders:
    - EBS Pro - 16 transponders with inaccurate SRs are registered;
    - IQmonitor - registered 17 transponders with exact SR, including 3780 V :70:



    I applied a filter in EBS Pro to exclude ACM.

    If I had no filter it might have registered the 3780V transponder? I would need to re-run the EBS Pro scan without the filter to find out.

    Great work and great spectra :73:

    It is not clear why there is no powerful stationary broadband transponder 3780 V in the first table ? :125:



    strannik


    Thank you for your kind words.


    Are you referring to the DVBDream picture or to the IQmonitor pictures?

    For the IQmonitor pictures, the first spectra is for H polarity, the 3780V transponder is present in the 2nd spectra which presents V polarity.


    For DVB Dream I applied a filter to exclude data and radio transponders.

    The 3780V transponder is in Digicipher, it may be that DVBDream does not correctly recognise Digicipher?

    Thank you for your reply.


    I think that the TBS6902 card is not a good card for this type of work. I will try to run the new experiment but I think the dog has buried the bone deep, it might need a lot of digging to find the bone.

    The post contains the results from the new scan with the INI file updated with S2X_scale = 2.333 and the tick placed in the DBV-S2 box.


    Thank you for your support.

    I have repeated the scans of 100.5 East using the TBS 6902 card

    This post contains the picture results of the repeat scan without any changes to the INI file or the settings panel.


    Repeat Scan.

    Thank you for your reply.


    I think the TBS6902 card might be causing some issues. I have observed that It may not register signal levels accurately all of the time?

    I will run the scans of your proposals and publish them on the forum as soon as possible.

    I have made small progress, I now have the "Save" option working.The issue was the local date format on the PC, now updated.


    After a fresh blind scan of 100.5E I created two feed reports, one on a locked transponder and one on an empty part of the spectrum.

    There were no unlocked transponders to use for a feed report.


    I have attached below the 2 x feed reports and a transponder list.


    Thank you for your support.

    Your spectrum discouraged me ... :28:
    To give an opinion on it, please send IQmonitor_2.ini and StreamReader.log

    We'll talk about saving files later, but for now let us know in which folder you have IQmonitor_2.exe

    and whether the spectrum is saved on the disk


    I'm a good person, but if you still play around with the coordinates, I'll just put you on the ignore list :54:


    strannik


    I do not "play" around with coordinates.

    If there were errors with the coordinates it was due to a copy/paste of the IQmonitor program and forgetting to edit the coordinates.


    I have entered the good coordinates for the location of the dishes that were used for the scans.

    How do you think I can get a scan from 160E to 139W? it is a 299 degree arc, it needs dishes at multiple locations.


    I have attached the files you requested. The files are those that were used for the 100.5E scan.

    The operational folders for IQmonitor are not directly on the C:\ drive, they are in sub folders.

    I could not get the spectrum saved to the disk.
