Scanned the forums and couldn't find this question specifically (but if I was good at scanning I wouldn't need to post would I?)

On the Explorer Mission where I need to find the Magnetometric Site. Cannot find it. I can't even find any site in the group Magnetometric. I find Ladar, Radar and Gravimetric easily. It's not even that I get it at 20% then can't narrow it down. It just doesn't exist.

Scanning at 16AU first, then reduce eventually down to 2AU until I get full signal.
Probes arranged in a shape: (X is the probe)
--X
XXX
--X




I've done this before, I used to scan for individual ships with decent success. I took a 3 month break from EVE, using this tutorial as a refresher. My skills are above that of the average tutorial user, so I just don't know why I can't find the site, but I can find every other one easy.

Make sure you've cleared your filters so that everything shows up on your returns.

Hello Volkan Alkaid,

Have a watch at the official scanning video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heYfTA00Idg (you will need to use an external browser)

Watch that video and see what's going on make sure your in the rookie system too.

I hope that helps feel free to mail me in-game if you have any other questions.

Fly safe o/

Sorted it, log on and off and jumped in and out the sector.
Don't know what was wrong.

Thanks for the input guys.
