Hi John,
I noticed that in the NWS recommended config for the S300 receiver, they
manually set the symbol rate to 15.120 Msps. Is this just a relic of the S75
needing to have the symbol rate set automatically? Is there an advantage to
manually setting it versus using the S300's automatic detection of the symbol
rate? I set our S300 receivers to use auto detection so that if NWS increases
the data rate later, I may not need to reconfigure the receiver -- and we
have been receiving the NOAAport DVB-S2 signal fine with auto symbol rate
detection on two S300 receivers -- but I don't want to lose data if this is
a bad idea.
Thanks, and have a good weekend!
I don't know if it is a relic, but it's a great idea to have it
automatically set; I don't know why there's a manual setting for it if
it's autodetected. Take care!
