I thought you had Bell Fibe ? And have or had Dish as well, can't imagine you are now planning on going FTA as well....lol

MCIBUS, I would suggest a quick Google search for a Toroidial Dish, I once set one up with 12 lnbf's but I am pretty sure 16 or more lnbf's/Sats are possible. 61, 73, 82, 91, 101, 103, 105, 107, 110, 117, 119, 121.

As even channels are using the highest voltage (18v) it is possible that something has increased the resistance on the cable. That is normally a splitter or could be water ingress. As you only state Nimiq 82 evens, it could also be a switch, LNBF problem.

I could be wrong but I am pretty sure that there is a switch installed within the LNBF and is an integral part of it, so it cannot be removed. Each Coax should see 3 orbital slots. I guess there is nothing to loose trying to aim it but with this set up I am not sure that the Bell Receivers...

If there is a large one and a smaller one then it would appear you have a system set for 3 orbital slots. The smaller LNBF could be disconnected.

Your Dish, LNBF and Switch's (if installed) should all work with Bell Services, unless it is wired for a Hopper System. So if you could give us a clue as to what is existing we can almost certainly clarify things for you. You will, of course, need to re-aim the Dish/LNBF's to 91 & 82 degrees...

Are these G1 or G2 6400's? You are aware of many capacitor issues with these models I assume.?

Need much more info. What hardware do you have, how many LNBF's, switch type, where are you located?

I have already sold all my Bell TV Receivers.

Cool. Now to give away all my 1m Channel Master Offset Dish's because there is no way they will fit in my luggage.. lol

Thanks for that. Lots of reading to do.

Thanks for that quick reply. I was wondering about the PAL/NTSC thing and wondered if that was still an issue with HDMI. As for the SCART plugs, I had forgot all about those hideous things, they are monsters.....lol There is only HDMI so Composite is not an issue. It accepts a 12Vdc Power...

I am heading to the UK in a short while, is it worth taking the Micro HD with me, or is it specifically a North American Model.?

Cool, that's good to know. It never used to be on 82.

I totally agree. Get a separate receiver for OTA, then if one craps out, you still have some TV.... Although, most newer TV's have the ATSC Tuner built in, so maybe just connect the OTA Antenna directly to the TV..

What is the LNBF ? It will have to be a DP Dual, to feed the DPP44. If it is a legacy, that is your problem. There is no problem feeding signals (82) from a DP Dual LNBF into just 1 port of a DPP44 Switch, the DPP Seperator will also be fine. Do NOT use a splitter, you have all you need with...

In your first post you say you have an 18" Dish with a DPP Quad LNBF. The 18" Dish was only made for single Sat reception, so if it is indeed an 18" Dish, you will struggle to get good signals. The correct Dish for 2 Sat reception is the 20" (51cm) one, which is the same as the Dish 500. Try...

If 75% is "good for your position", I would be looking into separate bigger dish's.

It is NOT normal on 91 to have TP's at 0%. 75% is low. This time of year I have found wasps or ladybugs, inside LNBF's, causing intermittent problems. You just never know. Crimped connectors are never a good thing with Sat Signals due to the high frequencies used, I would certainly swap them...

#1 Trees move #2 good #3 Then you have the ONLY 3100 to do that as most TP's are MPEG4 which the 3100 cannot decode. #4 Cool #5 Oh, you also do not have a working 6100 on Bell TV, they were discontinued and now only work for OTA reception.

The 3100 showing TP16 only is normal, it cannot see the other TP's. The Power Inserter connection is notorious for failure to stay connected, check that again, ensuring that it goes in and you turn it Clockwise to lock it in position. Also, just because you have no rain or bad weather in your...

What channel number are you trying to record? AFAIK, Bell do not blackout anything other than AMC in HD, where AMC do not have the rights to broadcast that particular Movie in HD, it will still air in SD on the lower channels though.

I guess you could always 'skew' the mast... ie: not have it vertical, that should work.

Pretty sure you do not have a working 6100... lol These all died some time ago. I assisted with someone in a similar situation but they had no problems with a pair of larger dish's (they needed them too). We used a 75cm Channel Master Offset Dish with a DP Dual LNBF for 91, then a 1m Channel...

Just so you know, the blue center in the Barrel Connector (F81) signifies it is capable of passing 3Ghz Signals, the clear and white are normally only good for up to 1Ghz. Using the wrong ones, means a significant drop off of signals above the rated frequency. I think the issue is much more...
