Server is designed for multisat use, providers can come and go.
28e has had a good run, if it doesnt come back theres plenty else to choose from.

As expected, 28.2e is down on my Viark Sat 4k but I'm also having problems with most other sats.
Tonight's match was very unwatchable on 16e with regular freezes and I ended up switching to 30w instead.
It still froze occasionally on that sat but was a bit better, having had the same issues with persistent freezing on 19.2e and 23.5e (couldn't even find the match on 13e and 0.8w).
Unfortunately, it's been like this for a while and only seems to be getting worse. I've done all the usual trouble shooting including restarting the box and router but to no avail.
Are other members having the same issues with overseas sats?

I also found 16.e glitching a lot when I was watching the Liverpool United match.

Its in downloads section, make sure to back up list etc.
Alright thanks . So long to have upload the channel list everytime.
Some firmware update downgrades will wipe out your channel lists its random some version do some dont. Always better to backup your list
It's been a long time, looks like I'll have to get up the ladder 🪜👴

I mainly watched 28.2east on my Viark 4k receiver connected to my motorised dish that was controlled by my zgemma dual tuner satellite receiver.
As I have been switching between several satellites since 28.2 went down, I have now set the dish up to be controlled by the Viark on USALS.
It's working OK but I wanted to set the longitude to 2.23 west, but I cannot find anyway to set it to that, even by putting 00 in then 2.23 it goes to 22.3, so I have had to settle for 2.2, which seems to be OK, but am I missing something in how to set it more accurately?
Also if I update the firmware at the next release, does it save the satellite setup along with the channel list or do I have to set up USALS again each time?

2.2 is accurate as you can get it, as it only goes to one decimal place. Should wok fine.

Always backup your channel list and take a note of your USALS settings before doing a firmware update, then reload your saved channel list and check your USALS settings and ensure they are the same as they were before the update if not adjust settings accordingly.
