Satwork ST3688. As an experiment, I did a blind scan on AMC4 with NIT
ON, and apparently it picked up all the channels twice.

Also, another question same receiver. When I do a blind scan with the
Satwork, the frequencies it comes back with for the transponders are
listed on the receiver as around 5 to 7 Mhz lower than listed on
Lyngsat. Operation is OK it appears (except White Springs TV on
Telstar 7, video is horrible there and lists as about 7 mhz low - if I
enter the Lyngsat frequency the channel drops out. I'm thinking that
either the receiver master clock or PLL is off, or the Universal LNB
is off frequency).

I have a brand new Pansat on the bench but don't want to go to all the
trouble rescanning all the satellites, but it's looking like I'll have
to. The Pansat blind scan is about 20 times faster than the Satwork.
