Maybe this question would be more appropriate in the Dish Network forum?

WOW. What a difference the Bullseye TCXO LNB makes, especially on video feeds. Noticed an immediate improvement in SQ on everything on 99. Also noticed an improvement in SQ on WPR. Thanks Titanium for the suggestion.

Locked a low SR on the Amiko on 87 KU- This is using an Amiko non-PLL LNB, which is remarkable. However, I do not know the audio PIDS for this feed, which appears to be the "Family Life Ministries" mux.

Does anyone have a conical scaler they'd be willing to part with?

Me neither.

Especially yours, at 51.4 db 😆

Look at the coverage contour map from SatBeams. This satellite provides great coverage for the east and west coasts, especially LA, NYC, Seattle, and cyberham's neck of the woods in Canada. It's weaker in the Mountain West, Southwest and Plains regions. This explains why I've never had good luck...

Looks fine/normal here in NM

What is the hottest C-band TP between 97 and 103?

We swapped out the Maverick for an Amiko L107 this afternoon and couldn't lock WPR at all. So a PLL LNB is definitely a must.

Got one on order.

Received via email this morning.

Even with said LNB, isn't a receiver capable of tuning lower symbol rates and more precise frequencies still required?

The LNB on the 90cm dish will stay separate. It has its own dedicated line. Might do the same for C-band, but if a diseqc switch is incorporated, I believe it goes in-line before the 4-way switch.
