Retuning Your Receiver - Australia and New Zealand

The new D2 satellite has new tuning parameters. This affects all viewers of free Christian channels in Australia and New Zealand.

In mid January 2008 the D2 satellite commenced transmission in place of B3. The satellite is in the same position (no dish realignment required), but all the tuning parameters have change. This means that every receiver installed before Jan 2008 requires reconfiguration. This is not difficult to do, but requires careful attention to the setup procedure.

The basic process for retuning is to delete existing channels, enter new tuning information, scan for all channels, and then re-organise the channels. To rescan your own receiver, the transponder data is as follows:

  • Frequency: 12706 (12706.5)
  • Polarity: Vertical
  • Symbol Rate: 22500
  • FEC: 3 / 4
  • “Network Search” must be set to “enabled’ or “on” so that it can load all available channels.

GlobeCast Australia will continue to provide updates as more information comes to hand.
