See comments below.
Btw, not sure how often Debian updates the dtv-scan-tables package. This
package contains only configuration settings to be used for Digital TV
(and a Makefile with installs their contents at the right places),
and it is updated upstream a few times per year, in order to reflect
the current channel listings, as, from time to time, new frequencies
are used, tuning parameters change or satellites got replaced.
I strongly suggest to update this package from time to time, even on
a LTS distro.
Based on the report, it sounds that Clément is still using a very old
channel table, with the channel frequencies used before March 2015.
The channel parameters were updated in 2017 at frequency database
tree, and the file itself was renamed in 2018, in order to follow
the current name for the satellite: Eutelsat 5 West A.

First of all, the best is to use the "extended" LNBf, as this is the most
common LNBf found in Europe those days. It has a wider frequency range.
If you use "universal", you won't be able to tune a few transponders there,
with have a frequency a little higher than 12,700 MHz.
Also, looking a w_scan source code, S5W0 is not Atlantic Bird, but, instead,
EUTELSAT 5 WEST A, with was renamed at DTV scan tables [1] in 2018:
commit 740c6b2eb7ad8c9ff77a2d8cc6811d6dbfa201c3

Rename Atlantic Bird 3 to Eutelsat5
[1] see https://git.linuxtv.org/dtv-scan-tables.git
The scan table for it was also changed in 2017:

dtv-scan-tables - dvb-s - update and rename the config file for
Atlantic-Bird-3-5.0W - Ku Band
Hello,
The latest update for the file Atlantic-Bird-3-5.0W (Ku Band) is 2015-03-28:
https://git.linuxtv.org/dtv-scan-tables.git/log/dvb-s/Atlantic-Bird-3-5.0W
but since March 2015 there are a lot of changes in the tranponders list.
And now, a lot of transponders for Algerian, French and Italian TV and
Radio channels are missing.
Attached is an updated config scan file (Atlantic-Bird-3-5.0W.patch
file) for Atlantic-Bird-3-5.0W transponders in dvbv5 format.
Could you please ensure that this new patch is committed into the DVB
source code tree repositery?
PS : Attached there is also the full up to date file :
Atlantic-Bird-3-5.0W-2017-01-09.NEW.FULL if you need it
Btw, on a quick look at w_scan code, it uses those frequencies:

There are several transponders missing there at Ku band, when compared
with the current content of the file upstream:
https://git.linuxtv.org/dtv-scan-tables.git/tree/dvb-s/Eutelsat-5-West-A-5.0W
So, in other words, you should use the latest table from dtv-scan-tables,
and do:
$ dvbv5-scan -l extended /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/Eutelsat5_5.0W
Thanks,
Mauro
