That's the tuner i ordered not sure what I am going to use it for LOL

lots of fta sats if you have the right dish and probably a linear lnb.
Not 100% sure though

Just got an email from Avov:

We are waiting for ATSC. We have DVB-S2 at the moment and can send you either or if you wish.

looks like it is a DVB S2 tuner so it will pick up any sat really, linear or circular. Won't find any free content thru Circular thou, you'd have to go with Linear.
Linear sats need different LNBs and usually larger dishes then Circular sats.
Not to be confused with Ku-band and C-band.
C-Band is all linear sats, while KuBand is both Linear and Circular.
AT lygnsat, you can tell which are linear sats by the polarization they use.
Linear would be Horizontal or Vertical while Circular would be Left or Right.
Cband have 4 digits in the TP frequency while KuBand have 5 digits in the TP frequencies (actually they are more digits but they only show 5 at lygnsat and on our receivers show 5 as well).

Motorized dish is best with linear sats as each sat may only have a couple worth while channels (as per preference), so in order to have a selection of some channels, it's nice to have access to all sats on the clarke belt
Hope the Fuse has motorized settings

For those who have a tuner, does it support mpg4 or the Dish turbo?

[K00lKatT]

DVBs2 is used by both Dish and Direct in up-linking but hasn't reached the consumer level yet, it may never reach it, who knows??

so would you say a motorized dish is the way to go on the fuse dvb-s2 tuner never tried one

The Fuse has the DiSCqE 1.0 and 1.1 and 1.2 and 1.3 functions
With the 1.2 and 1.3 being the Motor Mode, so yes the FUSE has motor control
There are no Circular sats listed in the FUSE's Satellite List, but you can add sat of your own. Circular sats are all encrypted thou and the FUSE does not do IKS
The FUSE has most all other sats and they are Linear sats, Ku-Band and C-Bnad
The Satalite setup menus are well put together on first look.

I will get it connected to motor a little later and report how that works.

Just looking at the Kodi now and the Kodi installer just started.
