ST2020 Quick Tips Guide
This receiver has been preloaded and set for the Optus D1 satellite as used by SKY TV and Freeview New Zealand.
All receivers by Starview have been tested working before leaving our CHCH store.
NO TUNING of the ST2020 is required to get the standard Freeview channels as they have been pre-programed for you.
You should be able to connect to a satellite dish aligned to the satellite and start enjoying digital TV.
However there are many settings with satellite TV so this guide has been written to help with the basics.
If you require more advanced information please refer to the other manual supplied with the ST2020, or you may have
to contact your installation technician or supplier.
We know you will enjoy your Starview ST2020.
LNB Frequency's - a quick over view and how to change.
The receiver unit on the end of a satellite dish is called an LNB.
This converts the signal from the satellite to a signal you can send
down coax cable to your satellite receiver.
There are 2 main LNB's used in New Zealand. 11300 & 10750:
The ST2020 has been pre programed for use with the 10750 LNB This
is also the dual or quad LNB’s currently being installed by SKY TV.
Most installations are now using the 10750 LNB ' also called 10.75.
This number is written on most quality LNB's
If you have an older style of LNB it may be a 11300 or 11.3
You will just have to change the LNB setting on the ST2020 to get
signal

setting.
