You might check sathint and compare your TP and SR settings. You may also try deleting all the channels on that sat and rescanning.

I haven't experienced any freezing on these channels. The wizard is currently flying on the color bars on MicroHD. I have 67% Quality on MicroHD and 65% on MS10/20.

I never had the problem but I have heard of it before.
The guy that had the problem lived in southern california, if that means anything.

I've had that happen sometimes with those channels, with other receivers. Don't recall it happening with the X2, there is something different about those channels, I believe. They used to lock up the old Traxis 3500, and I think it was a Mercury II also.

since I repaired mine,the cover has been off -so I assume it is running cooler than average.

I don't recall ever having an issue with those channels when I was using my x2 for ku. I don't have any problem with them on my technomate.

I don't recall having freezing on MS10, MS20 with the X2 either, even when adding audio.

the guy I talked to said there were firmware versions that would drop the signal- plus he had to tweak his dish.
I have old firmware loaded (jan 2013) so I can't tell.

I can confirm X2 always freezing up on that TP running APR 2013 FW.
I use a simple workaround since I have no use for those channels - Go to TV channel Editor on the X2 and use the [SKIP] option for those channels.
The channels will still look like they scan in but are no longer in the channel list. Freezing up FIXED.

If you want the channels back, simply go back and delete TP and rescan.

Found a good use for the [SKIP] function!
