    Favourite FTA Satellite/Channel

    What's weird is that I still cannot get pentagon channel. Almost every satellite list shows the same channels, especially RTVE, TUFE & PBJE. I haven't reset the motor yet, but I have reset the receiver. If I reset the motor, do I have to start the setup from scratch? Mark

    This is weird... I just did a blind detail scan of 83w K AMC9 and it received 15 channels. 14 are $Ch- And then I have 280 alternate channels that did not show in the search, such as Qatar TV. These 'other' channels always seem to show up, regardless of an individual sat search. I notice that...

    English Speaking Channels Just did a scan of all satellites, giving me close to 2000 channels. The only English speaking channels I have found are religion based. I am looking for the retro channel and news media/sports/movie channels. Is there also a previous thread regarding obtaining OTA...

    After many highs and lows, along with great support and patience from fellow forum members, I finally got my set up to work. I ended up elevating the dish to 24.5 and adjusting the altitude on the motor to 38.0. Set the receiver to 97.0 sat. Nothing. maxed the volume on the TV so I can hear the...

    I'm trying to use: EchoStar 9/Galaxy 23 at 121.0°W as my closest south sat. But none of the TP on Lyngsat are in the TP list on the HD receiver. Is there a way to add the TP? Mark

    Please disregard previous post. I have now rechecked and set the dish declination to 6.0 & motor elevation 52 based on my site lat 38. I had selected USALS in the motor setup and input my coordinates. I then selected 121 W as my test SAT. The receiver says that the motor is moving, but I still...

    So before I remove the motor and reinstall, I thought I would post 2 pics showing my motor and dish settings. Perhaps I need to adjust them instead of reinstall? I live in Sacramento: Latitude = 38.5038, Longitude = -121.5154 Lat = 38 degrees, 30.2 minutes North Long = 121...

    Hi Brian. So do I remove the dish, install the motor facing due south and the dish also faces south? Or must I rotate the dish back to G19 after installing the motor? Mark

    After much hair pulling and gnashing of teeth, I finally acquired the Galaxy 19 signal. I received my new motor, replaced the defective, but could not acquire anything. So I decided to remove the motor and replace the dish in a fixed configuration. After much elevating and pointing I finally got...
