As your LNB LO is 10750 then 10750 + 1887 = 12637 which is the Souther
Cross Central transponder on Optus D1.

Problem is since the recent article in the Herald that transmission has
been replaced with a test card so you won't be able to watch much anyway.

The problem with tuning under MythTV is that MythTV updates the dtv
multiplex information based on the information provided by the
transmission. In the case of SC7 the information is structured for DVB-T
rather than DVB-S. Hence after performing a scan using

12637000 5100000 Vertical

You will need to manually modify the correct entry in the DVB multiplex
table.
