Not nuts, you just don't have a receiver with proper Ku formats. All the
legacy satellites have non-standard formats, while most newer ones
standardized similar to C, mostly after the last C/Ku consumer IRDs were
manufactured. SBS6 was like nothing else, and Uniden probably did not
put in a special format for it. SBS6 is right near the end of its
expected useful life, so the problem should go away on its own before
too long.
