[Feralkiwi]

Please, what kind of dish or mover or switch are you using?

Check that you have the correct antenna setting for each satellite. both LNB low frequency and switch port / 22kHz.

If you press menu / move to "Satellite List" / OK / move to the satellite you want to set up and then press the yellow button as is listed at the bottom of the screen for "Setup".
There you can set the DiSEqC 1.0 for the port on your switch.

If you are using a moving dish for these satellites you need Press Menu / Antenna connection / and select <Motor Antenna>
Then when you go to the satellite list / yellow button for setup you can set for DiSEqC or USAL mover and set up the position etc.

It would help me to help you if you explain what dish set up you have, three dishes or a mover?

When you have each satellite set up on the satellite list, press "OK" while on each so there is a tick beside the satellite name.
Only these ticked satellites appear for scanning.

You said this

next step i program v 8 finder without diseqc direct from antenna one by one again there is no Nile sat in the list there is something wrong maybe from program or from v8 finder explain me what can i do to this

When you did this,did you connect directly to the dish LNB or through the DiSEqC switch?
When connected to the dish oi you see any signal level when you are in the TP menu?

is your dish correctly pointed at the satellite?
Can you test using another box?

[Feralkiwi]

When you change from one region list to the other you do like a factory reset.

Use one list and then "ADD" the extra sats you need and scan them.

If you change region you will loose it.

You can delete all the sats on the list and enter just the three you need.

You do not need to change region. The region lists are just offerings from Freesat. The unit can scan any sat any where, all in the same list, just add them as you need them.
