For what it is worth, the Optibox will blow right through the scan IF incorrect or invalid upper/lower scan limits are used. EB

So what are we calling invalid? I've been using 11700 - 12200, and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
I've noticed that I have slightly better success leaving it on universal and limiting the range than trying 10600 with 22k on, but only slightly. Either way sometimes ends up blowing through the scan!

If you make a mistake and enter 117000 instead of 11700 then your blind scan will complete in a couple of seconds without finding anything. Try it and see.
You cannot check and see if you made a mistake after a blind scan because the manual values that you entered are not stored..

For every second blind scan yesterday, I had to reboot my anaconda so it wouldn't blow through the scan- 11700-12200 every scan.

From advise from EB, I saved all channel and sat info. Factory defaulted my anaconda and retransferred all my info back- been great ever since. I also decided to delete some unwanted encrypted channels- that menu is quite impressive.

A factory default will not fix a 40 minute blind scan but it may fix the scan running from 0 to 100 in a few seconds. I think this 0 to 100 scan problem is corruption or an incorrect setting.
New firmware has been released for some of the other Fortis receivers, and I imagine it will not be long before Optibox has some new firmware too. Whether the new firmware will blind scan any better remains to be seen. EB.

Last night I removed the Ecoda 22KHz switch from my system and performed 7-9 blind scans and the "L-Band of Universal LNB with Horizontal Polarity" message didn't appear once. I'm going to continue testing without the Ecoda 22KHz switch until I'm convinced the problem no longer occurs.

You never know it could well be the switches..I run a single LNB from my C-Band dish and have not had one lockup apart from when I installed webzeal, I did need a hard boot in this case.
I have yet to see scanning stopping or freezing at 81% either or blowing through transponders the Anaconda always completes the scan on all polarity's.
My blindscan times average 25-30 minutes. I didn't really want to say I am not experiencing any of the problems before, as you know I sell them at LegitFTA-Shop and some would think because of this I would there is not a problem.
Not the case though, I fully believe you guy's are having these issues. So even if it is a switch issue, this needs to be fixed as well as speeding up the blindscan..I like to feed hunt as well and if we could get it down to 10-15 minutes, I think most would be pretty happy. I would not expect it to be much faster than that or we may lose the accuracy.
We have sent the requests for changes to be made..I was told it would take a few weeks for the needed changes...Just don't carve that in stone...lol
They were pretty quick to make an NTCS file for us because of the simplicity of changes on that, but my understanding is this requires a good deal more work.
So all we can do is hang in there and keep testing for any other issues.
Myself If I see any switch issues if thats the case fixed and the blindscan speed-ed up, I think this Anaconda is good to go.
