Last year I decide to move the feed Astrotel precision high performance c+ku band feed pm-93-c/ku to chaparral bullseye 2 feed on the 8ft dish. Because of the size of the dish I don't no if working .But after same modifications did working good on all satellites from 139 west to 55.5 west .The only problem I lose the two brazilian channels on the Amazonas at 61.1 west after that.But because are so good to have and do scan v+h at same time I keep the bullseye on the dish.Today I decide to go to the Amazonas do scanning on the two vantages price $230 to $600 canadian and no signal on the two receivers .I decide to tray the x2 and scanning the 3923 3333 3/4 v 3941 v 3480 and 32 signal on the 11 am in Toronto signal breaking .At night the signal maybe go to improve.But I only tray to explain the x2 are one very good receiver the scan are the best, I compare to the best receivers I have for scan very weak signals .If you compare the performance of the receiver and price are the number one for scanning weak signals on the 8 ft dish

The x2 has one of the most sensitive tuners of any receiver I have ever tested and that includes many $$$ boxes as well.

Don't know how one could get much faster blindscan! This is what I've wanted for about six years, a box that'll scan fast enough for me to find a ballgame before it ends! Like Tanka I have one of those Vantage 1100s receivers, which was very well made but the software was never fixed right for N America. Some channels it plays great, those with the 29270 SR would drive me batty. A very good blindscan too, but slow as Christmas, with X2 I can scan 3 satellites in the same amount of time as one with the Vantage, lol.

I agree.I don't mind scanning with the X2,it really goes through the scan and is very fast.Be interesting to see a comparison between any receiver that can top the X2.
