My old T5 won't scan anything except 91.

[tOr0nTo]

My T5 is about 5 years old and has been working fine all along- even up to last night. This morning I turn it on, and the only one of the 5 sats (82, 91, 110, 119, 129) that works is 91- it's fine. It's on a legacy switch with 82. 91 comes in, whether the switch is engaged or not, it even comes in to the disecq 4 where 129 is usual. 91's S&Q are okay, 97 for both.

I have changed the disecq, no difference. I reinstalled all files, the latest factory & then the 0106 217p latest bin. Still no improvement.

I hope someone in the know can figure it out. Up til last night it was working fine but nothing's forever I guess.

I think your DL200 is gone.

yeah thats very possible but why would one sat still work? I guess 91 is the only one that has no hd channels. I will wait till one of the mods comment before I rush to buy a new hd module... the dl200.

You can also remove the disecq and connect one of your sat's directly and see if you get signal.

yes I might get around to doing that, but I suspect highly that it's the module, can't be much else. They do burn out, generally, long before the receiver does.

There are he channels on 91

There are he channels on 91
but majority are sd so that's why it works without a working module

[herk]

agreed but confirming the hd channel on 91 does not work would not hurt

offhand, do you know what the hd channel's #s are?

channel 721

channel 721

All my 91 channels are in the 1000's so I guess that would be 1721. It appears... FAIR2... good s& q... but nothin'. Scrambled I guess.

Anywayz, hard to get a module anywhere in TO anymore, so one is on the way to me from... a railroad centre in south west Ontario...

The one I saw on Kijiji is in Malton. I'm getting it mailed to me for same price - saving gas.
