| | | Info About Brasil B4 @ 84 West
Does anyone know if I can hit 84 w with an BSC621-2 LNBF?
I am also using a C Works 800 receiver with a 10 ft. C/K band dish.
Moving the dish by hand. Each time I think I am on it an scan I get a lot of media feed channels that are scrambled. But I do not get any of the channels that show on the channel list.
If my LNB is ok I must not be on the sat or maybe wrong settings.
Any Ideas?

Any Ideas? | Those channels are beamed to Brazil, so If you are not in the immediate area you will not get any of those channels listed.

That sounds like a good reason. My receiver had Brasil B3 at that location, so I thought I could just substitute and enter the transponders, by hand, and hit B4. I guess it was a good try anyway.
Thanks

Here is the footprint on B4 so you can see what area gets the most coverage.

well it does not hurt to try with a big dish I see post on other forums that people in the deep south can get 61 on a 1.5 meter dish
