I'm getting really crappy signal strength, and quality numbers for METV on 101 West. Today it's a sunny day in NY, and I have lost METV altogether. I have a 10 foot dish. My numbers for Heroes & Icons are OK. Anyone getting the same thing? What exactly is going on with 101 West, and Weigel...

Interesting line-up changes. Thanks again Iceberg. Problem is, I'm getting horrible signal strength, and quality numbers on METV over the past 4 days. Is it me, or is anyone having the same issue? Since November 1, my numbers for MeTv have been way down. Is there anything I can do to my...

If that $50.00 receiver on ebay is an Open Box clone, I won't go there. I programmed one Open Box, but it was very difficult for me. Took hours. Then when I finally got the receiver programed, it kept freezing up. I can be forgetful, and distracted, so it's just better that I keep my receivers...

THank you again. I appreciate very much all the time you have spent on my questions. I'll go on ebay and look for this, and the necessary cables. Also, some guy on Ebay is offering some cheap MPEG 4 FTA receiver for $50.00. He says it's for 97 West, and lists no other satellites. I'm...

Right again Iceberg. You really know your stuff. The Traxis 4000 downloaded a whole bunch of stuff on 97West, but failed to get a picture for RETRO. I had to use a Coolsat 8000, and a Pansat 9200 for Retro. Problem is these receivers were in my METV looping chain. Now, I want to replace the...

THanks Again for the info. I surely appreciate it. Sounds like I better record what I can, while I can. I'd like to loop a few receivers for Retro. Is the audio from Retro on G19 in AC3? I have a Traxis 4000 lying around, great for Blind Scan, but I never could use it for METV, as it can't...

Thanks for the info on RETRO and G19. If I understand this METV business, if and when METV is no longer FTA, does that mean it goes the Terrestial route as a CBS subchannel?? Also, are they are planning to go HD? Sometimes less is more, and I don't want any changes with METV.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the C-Band/KU Universe!!! I'm glad to see Retro is getting better. I have not viewed it since it went off KUBand on 83West. Now that it is back on KU, I wonder if my old PanSat 2700 be able to receive the KU feed, or will I need a more sophisticated...

Primestar, Are you watching Cozi over the air, or on C-Band???

I'm getting COZI here in NY. Wondering why they have the picture framed on all 4 sides, as this makes for a smaller picture, and their logo really looks big. Why would they are their shows using a smaller screen? I think it's annoying. They've got a great array of shows, I just they'd...

Sorry LNB.

I think it's an LMBF up now, and the Chaparral in the garage is an LMB.

Lost the picture entirely on SES1. I got signal of 65%, but zero quality. It's time for me to stop trying to fix the old dish, and call a technician. My guess it's the LMB. Its a dual LMBF, 15 months old. I guess they don't make 'em like they used to. In the garage, I found an old Chaparral...

Thanks to those who gave answers to my loss of signal strength on SES 1. Yes, I moved the Dish position about 5 clicks East, as Ice suggested, and got a much stronger quality reading. The test will come when it rains again, as I'm wondering if this is a weather related problem. We have lots...

Hope someone can figure this out. I get a strong signal, and high quality on Golden Eagle Broadcasting on SES1, but very low quality on Me, and This. Anyone else experiencing a severe degradation of the signals for Me and This? Earlier this week, Me and This had very high quality for me, and no...

Popcorn, Exactly which FTA Lesea channel is presently airing Little House, My 3 Sons, Flying Nun and Rifleman??? There a 5 FTA Lesea channels on G16, and I can't find these shows on any of them. Please be specific as to where these shows are airing. Richyriles

I lost METV, did some research, and discovered that METV, and This TV made some Changes today, and the new positions are:: Me TV new Position Freq. 3.974 SR 5.924 FEC 5/6 This TV New Position Freq. 3.953 SR 2.734 FEC 5/6 Hope this helps anyone who lost METV...

THanks for the help, it is really appreciated. With your help, I got the Old Dish peaked on SES 1, nice and strong signal on Me, and This. I'm looping Coolsat HD's, and the signal is strong enough to go from receiver to receiver. I'm thrilled it's working fine. Thanks, Richyriles

Got it going on SES1, and it looks to be a strong enough signal for ME & This. Thanks for your help. Richyriles

Just my luck, but when I tried to turn my dish to 101W to get SES 1, using W4, I ended up near G1. My guess is some previous Technician had changed the settings on my Motorola 922. For years, I never went near the equipment, just relying on a service guy to do the job. These days there no...
