    83W RTV is doing ok as usual in Ohio. I've thought of raising my 8 foot dish up on another pole..In the summer I lose 58w to 72W & 137W on Cband...
    KU seems to be ok between 72w and 125W....I may trim the one tree that is messing with 87W on CBand to see if RTV improves. I'm getting too old and lazy to climb like I used too.

    Micro HD Receiver, 36" Primestar dish with SG2100 motor & GeoSat PPL Lnb scanning KU from 61W-125W, Fortec 8 Foot with Geosat CK1 Lnb, and HARL2424 Powertech acuator and Gbox scanning 61W-139W, Fixed 6 Ft Fortec dish for 43W-58W.

    Ku feed looks normal here. Which it should, as nothing has changed.

    I went outside and tweaked my lnb on Cband and RTV popped in a solid signal now on 87W. Bounces between 58-70..enough to keep it locked in no problem.
    So RTV's signal and my huge tree weren't my issues after allShift+R improves the quality of this image. Shift+A improves the quality of all images on this page.

    I'm just a couple hours down the road from you, and am currently getting it at around 63-65 on the AZBox Ultra (and similar readings on the Pansat) on my 75e (on the 4 degrees off-centre LNB). About normal for me (though sometimes it is higher).

    No change in the bitrate.... any chance it can be tweaked/raised a bit? Some shows on RTVE and PBJE are suffering.

    The source material on shows like Skippy must be poor, as they show the effects more than some others.
    Would like to see some of change of programming (more of a change than what just happened for the 4th quarter) Please try to add some series like Harbour Command, or Jungle Jim.

    I don't want to sound all negative, I do enjoy what is there.

    I have not been able to scan in the feed on 87W on my Azbox Prem +, is there a cure for this? I should be able to get the signal, I am using a 10' mesh buttonhook BUD, and usually have no trouble getting a lock on DBV-S2. I have not tried the 137W feed yet.
    Thanks,
