Some people use an actuator to move their BUD, and can connect
the polarotor to their fta box, allowing the fta box to control polarity and skew.
however when ya save a channel list, the sKEW settings are not populated,
though i thought i saw a field for it.
Any ideas?

Most of the receivers are not using skew, or the field does not exist in the channel list format. Please let me know which receiver you have, if is used and I did not mapped it, then I can fix it.

That would be awesome. I know not many support it.
Using pansat 2700a. Which has polarotor connections, and supports sKEW.
I setup a SKEW setting to switch H / V polarazation, then
when ya do a "read from stb" it populates the H/V sKEW with "0".
Did u see my attachment?

No, I had not noticed the attachment before, thanks for pointing this to me.
Now I do not have a 2700, so it would be great if you could change the skew to 1 or 2 satellites to some known values, then read the channel list as binary (BCF or BIN in CM) then send it to me.
Thanks,
SharpC.

no problem, attached, g10r C should have like -27 deg for H, and 60 deg for H.
Any sat that I cannot see or haven't tried tuning should have default values,
of +45, and -45 for H, V (any of the euro or atlantic sats for example).
thx for the quick replies, and of course ur time lookin in to it...

I have found the place where these are stored, but could you please tell me again which is H and which is V?
Thanks!

Nice!
In the g10R C-band example 60 degrees = Vertical polarization, and -27 degrees = Horizontal polarization. That's after tuning and peaking signal.
In another example from a sat I've never tuned, so should be 'factory default"
Hispa-1c/Ku is setup as +45 = Horiz, and -45 = Vert.
But any of the sat's I've tuned before and saved/sent a channel list, the skew is always 0
for the sats I have channels saved.
If i've never tuned anything in before, like the hispa-1 example, it will still be populated with the factory default values after loading channel list.

Hi,
Please check it now and let me know how it works.
Cheers,

Very nice, it works!
Thanks a lot man, much appreciated, certainly makes it much easier now.
No more tweaking SKEW every time i save/load a channel list.
I don't think the "pansat 2700a channel editor" could do that either.

p.s. - tried to attach a new screenshot of g10r settings, showing ya that it worked. but got an error message saying not enough disk space.

Any idea if the same SKEW problem was fixed for the 2500A???
