87 West, what was it on before? Wondering if I need to adjust the dish.

How about FSSN...its hockey season baby! Maybe not a regular channel, its a great sports feed! Galaxy 17 Digital – 91.0° W Ku Band - Downlink Frequency: 12187 V Symbol Rate 4.88

I just want to use it for a wild feed hockey, during hockey season. Its a college team that I watched last year at 93W. I sent the station manager an email to make sure they will still be on 93w before I do anymore tweeking. The channel is FSSN, if you look at the list and such, it doesnt...

Thanks, I did change to a multiswitch. I want to be at 93W and did a blind scan with the coolsat 6000 and discovered that the dish needs a little tweeking. I am currently getting the 95W channels and no 93w channels. Interesting to see Taiwan channels though. Must move the dish a bit...

So I should replace the diseqc with a 2X4 multiswitch? The LNB Frequency is what? there are choices like 10.750, 10.500, etc. do I chance that for each channel that I want to receive? Right now, I cannot even get the CBS newsfeeds that you told me about before, nor can I get the university...

can someone help me out. The satellite I am pointed at is Galaxy 26 at 93.0W. I just got a coolsat 6000 to hook up to my dish. The dish I am using is an older primestar with a primestar LNBF. The LNBF has two outputs, one V and one H. I have them running into a DisEqc 2.0 switch...

I just dont want any questionable activity, thats all.

Thank you all so very much. I am the proud owner of a coolsat 6000, for under $50.00. Thanks again!!!

Is the factory firmware hard to locate, I guess that is the better question.

If I ordered a coolsat with 'hack' software on it, how would one get the original software back on it. I just need a receiver to watch hockey, Iceberg knows what team. I was using a PCI card but my computer wasnt able to keep up with the action, it was very jerky and skipped alot. I dont want...

Anyone recommend a good, cheap receiver? Something under 100.00 that has blind scan. Thanks

I want to win. Not to mention the whole Immigration and Customs enforcement issue that I had. Imagine, ICE taking away my current dish cranker....hey I didn’t know he was illegal.

Make sure you have a "fast" PC or HD channels will jump/skip. I can do SD just fine, but HD is a little shady.

I got 63% signal and 55% quality on a 1.2m primestar using a twinhan pci card in my computer. Its working pretty good! Thanks for all your help in getting me going as well.

Paulm, I used a similar method. I used the computer to calculate the degrees on a compass that I needed to point. On my computer, I used a pci satellite card, I added the transponders on "the list", 4 on each side of G26. I then pointed to what I thought was the correct compass setting. I...

Great news! The old primestar has now hit G26. I can only pick up about 5 CBS news feeds, NY and DC X2 and another, and the university network. My singal on the CBS DC channel is about 65% with 44% quality. Any suggestions? Should I change my elevation or should I change the skew of the...

I do have the skew set at about (according to the LNB and the LNB holder) at -6. On G25 I have about 22 tv and radio stations doing a complete satellite scan.

Can you tell me how far I need to move the dish to get from G25 to G26 in terms of inches? I know that G25 is at 172.4 degrees and G26 is at 167.0 degrees, so I would need to move the dish 5.4 degrees east, right? How many inches would that translate into? Dustin :confused:

I can pickup Galaxy 25, so a little further to the east and I should be able to get Galaxy 26. Signal is about 80% and the quality is good. I picked up quite a few channels as well. Maybe later in the week or this weekend I can point to 26. Thanks for all the help.

I'd pick the VISIONSAT IV-200 PVR SATELLITE RECEIVER. Why? -I have a 9 month old daughter, so we frequently miss what we are watching (i.e. loud toys and changing diapers make it hard to watch TV). The PVR would allow us to time shift those hockey games, so we wouldn’t miss the Sioux...

for the night I give up, I do believe that I need to move my house to the east about 5 feet, or the dish west about 5 feet to miss the house....then I need to cut down a couple of the neighbors trees........after that, I should be in.

The Ku band service is on Galaxy 25, at 97 W with carrier ID 1736729; 11778.700 MHz, H pol, Symbol Rate 3.978723, 3/4 FEC, 5.5 MBps That is acording to their website for training, I picked it up at 11785, so how do I adjust this. I tried to move East, but now I think I hit the corner of the...

Ok here is the deal, a little adjustment, got the singal to 85%. I did a scan and picked up 11785/3979/V....The channel says it is operated by AZCAR Training and provides distance learning based operations for the sprint nextel 2 GHZ project. ANY idea where in the world that is located?

Or even if my LNB is any good?

Even on the V, nothing else attached, I still get no channels when doing a scan. I do not know if I am even on the right bird. I was able to do some adjustments on the elevation and got a signal strength of 86%, but still nothing.
