This morning, before trying Brian's suggestion to loop the S-9 out of the Coolsat, I did one other test. I have a inline signal meter that shows LNB power/signal. I tried it on the Coolsat 5000, it showed Power and a very high signal. I then tried it on the S-9. On power up, the S-9 .....for...

Brian; Thanks for the update. Tomorrow, I will try the Coolsat to S-9 in the loop you mention and post back. However this begs the question, Why dose the S-9 work perfect in the house. There it even runs a USALS motor on the dish ? Whatever the problem, The Window displaying Signal Intensity...

C Band is not used in any way at this time. All sats are programmed for a LNB LO of 10750. This is the same as it is in my home, where it works KU LNB is powered by S-9 S-9 is a home run direct to the LNB.. No splitters or 22KHz switches (2) Coolsats work fine on the shop system. A old...

I need some help on a no signal problem, that I cant figure out. But first the background; The FTA system in my shop is made up of left over C and KU band equipment. The Dish is a C/Ku 10 footer with chaparral co-rotor, chaparral C and Ku LNB's. I use the Chaparral Sierra analog receiver as a...

Will do, many thanks 8Valve

Ok, thank You. I did not know about the skew issue on 103W. I can get the Huntington Beach north and south pictures, nothing else. I must have had NBC on 103 at sometime in the past as they are all scanned in. Correct me if I am wrong. If I change the Skew to receive NBC Channels, the the...

What/where is Cozi TV ? I looked on 103 W, did a blind scan on 103 W, even looked here the the forum at "THE LIST" and cant find mention of it anywhere. Sounds like a good ch, if I can find it. 8Valve

THANKS DAN 8VALVE

I have watched NBC News at 6:30 PM est on 72 West for many years. Been home a few days from assignment and no more NBC news with Brian Williams. Instead of News, they are running some of their 'show' type programs. Did NBC News move to another Sat ? Is there and ABC or CBS news, FTA on in...

Thanks Trip 8Valve

Once in a while from late afternoon till much later in the evening, LPB 2,3, HD on 87 West are off the air. There is no signal whatsoever. Then around 9pm or so, it comes back on with a great signal. I know its not my equipment as NewsourceHD on 87 west is always up with some picture. As...

Does anyone know if Macys Thanksgiving Parade will be available on FTA. If so, what Satellite/Transponder. My family with the kids are coming for Thanksgiving, I would love to let the kids watch the parade Thanks 8Valve

I checked the tracking/alignment today. Its right on the money. Looking at the top of the tree line I can see two tree leafless branches sticking up where it was once open. This area is right in the 125 west direction. Looks like some tree logging is needed. Its amazing how much tree...

I think Fat Air may have hit the answer. There are a few large trees out in the 125 west direction. In the past, till I was gone a year, they were no issue. My son told me it was a very wet summer. Those trees may have grown just enough to be causing the problem. I will do a re-alignment to...

KE4EST; I have a 40 inch round dish I put put up a few years ago. The LNBF is a .4db. Due to heavy trees and a mountain, I can only receive 72 west to 125 west. in that part of the arc, I am in the clear. Also, there are no leafs on anything here in the Mts. I receive all normal stuff I...

I did a re-scan on 125West for PBS. All the scan finds is Transponder 11980V with a signal strength of 95 and a quality of 85. I tried both preset scans and blind scans. Nothing is found for PBS or any of the transponders you listed. Any insight what may have happened that I cant receive...

Thank You. I dont know what DVB-S2 is. WIll my Openbox S9 receive that transmission after a re-scan. Thank You 8Valve

I have been out of the US for almost a year on assignment with my company. Prior to leaving, I received PBS on 125 West. Now I dont receive any of their programs. The "LIST" still shows PBS on 125West. My Openbox S9 always worked well on PBS. Any help appreciated. Thanks 8Valve

This series is the most stupid thing I have seen on TV. Its all fake, made for TV. If it was real, some Indian Tough guys would toss those guys and their sweetie off some cliff and be doen with them. Never figured how this fits on the History Channel along with American Pickers and other...

I was watching NBC news at 6:30, all was well. About 10 minutes into the news, the signal started to drop, picture all broken up. Finally it went Black 8valve

I used my hot glue gun to disable the V Format Button. Just one small drop bridging from the case to the button will not let it be pushed. Yet, if that button is ever wanted the drop of hot glue can be cut with a knife in a heartbeat. 8valve

Reading your narrative, I focus in on the following; "Went out and started pushing on the dish. Nothing. But then if I pulled on the bottom of the dish and pushed on the arm of the dish the signal JUMPED...big time. " From this, I believe your dish was slightly out of track. When you did...
