    Trouble aiming 61.5

    Im willing to vey the trees are still in the way. If you are standing/looking from behind the dish the 61 comes in n from the far left. Probably about a 45° angle or so from the dish. Take your phone and open your camera then set the phone on the arm with camera looking towards lnb, if there's...

    What channels should you use for testing your DIRECTV system?

    DIRECTV satellite TV is extremely reliable. But all of us, at one time, wonder if it’s working perfectly. (Or, it’s just a slow Sunday and there’s nothing you want to watch.) DIRECTV has a lot of tools that will let you see if your system is working right. On most DIRECTV systems, pressing and...

    Trying to Find professional services for C Band LNB maintenance in Northern Cal

    No idea. Maybe cost. But I'd like to think, and admire, those who get personal satisfaction from making their own technical stuff especially when it comes to antennas. Why? Just to see if they can do it.

    Is there any reason he didn't just buy a 5' dish?

    Trying to Find professional services for C Band LNB maintenance in Northern Cal

    Using a 12-foot dish should be easy for this task. Note attached that talks about an amateur radio operator who made his own 5-foot dish for the same purpose. Courtesy of July/2024 issue of QST magazine from ARRL.

    What happened to the bigger Echostar 25 satellite?

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    They are doing it to hospitals, retirement homes and veterinarian offices! I just lost my vet, for that reason!

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    That's not why, venture capitalists came in and sold all their assets off to a holding company they controlled and leased it back to Red Lobster. If they go bankrupt they don't care, they still hold all the assets.

    Trouble aiming 61.5

    Also, make sure your SSB is updated to the newest Field Guide by downloading the Flash program from the website. You'll need a USB-A to Mini USB chord

    Trouble aiming 61.5

    First you need to determine that you are receiving 72 satellite on the correct lnb. From BEHIND the dish, the left lnb receives 72. Cover it with aluminum foil or a tin can or something else metallic that will totally block the signal. If your reception on 72 fails, you have the correct lnb...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    The reason that Red Lobster went bankrupt was because of their Endless Shrimp promotions. As long as Charlie doesn't suddenly give out free shrimp or lobster to all subscribers, Dish will do fine. Dish stock is up almost 50 percent in the last six months!

    Ford to drop AM radio in new vehicles

    You're WAY over-generalizing this. There are many successful broadcasters on the AM band, success measured by the fact they still have advertisers who are patronized by listeners, who stay "tuned in" because they like the audio product. It's still quite viable. Maybe not where you are, but...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    I do think T-Mobile has nailed 5g more broadly and consistently than anyone else. While I’ve seen faster 5g speeds with Verizon UW at 3 gigs, the T-Mobile regular 5g in our very small town is pretty fast. Definitely faster than lte.
