My apologies to Rex and to those contributing to the XC5000 thread for having caused the two threads to become mixed - very sorry! Rex, this message should effectively start a new thread, so that hopefully your problem becomes more visible to those who may be able to help further. For my part, I am at a loss on how to proceed. 3 people have e-mailed me in the last 6 months to indicate that my "patch" fixed their problems. However, one guy could not get his setup working, but I'm not convinced it was the card which was at fault. The various debug outputs you have posted are very similar to mine, except for the parameter differences between Optus D1 and Astra 2. At least they are indicating that the 22kHz tone is now being generated. I don't think the numbers for signal strength, S/N ratio and ber have any meaning, except when the tuner is locked. Have you any way of monitoring the input/output of the Nova S Plus? I use a cheap "Satellite Finder" which I leave permanently in-line in the coax. It indicates the presence of the 22kHz tone and the 13V/18V signals, as well as an uncalibrated signal strength. Also, feel free to dismiss this and it is a long-shot, but are you absolutely sure that you are pointing at Optus D1 and not C1? They are fairly close. It should be very easy to check by trying to szap 12407 V, srate 30000, fec 2/3, which is on Optus C1 and which seems to be beamed at New Zealand.
