i have detected the frequency by placing a rf probe inside the tv above the tuner card .
now i want to do it without opening the tv.

shyam, you need to make something like an auto tuner(like in Auto Tune FM), so when you get a good response signal that means you have got a channel and note the frequency. But i am not sure will this auto tune works without TV on or not.. i am sure it works.. after all its a frequency.

And... you can test this thing also using an FM radio as TV frequencies start from 55-68Mhz something.. and FM works from 88MHz, so if you're lucky you can listen to a channel sound..

actually i did this experiment with my CAR radio.. and it works

TV was on at that time

it is possible to find the frequency of a channel. but in case of DTH, the data is decoded in some format so just finding the frequency is not enough. Have you noticed the time delay while changing channels? thats the time taken for decoding the data. ( that delay is constant. ie, DTH is 1-2 sec delayed compaerd to cable.) So even if u know the freq, its of no use. if you want to experiment with frequency, do it with cable service. I will try to post the pinout of the tuner module shortly.
