Any body having trouble with some channels.
Tps 12033 H 3003 SL 85% SQ 50% but many others don't come in like
12060 H 26700 SL 40% SQ 0% but during the day somewhat OK but at night nothing.

all TRP's working fine here in Minnesota
12060 is low (45) but the rest are between 80-90 on the GeosatPro
 
Ok then I need to look into it deeper. I do get 3ABN fine too on the Dynamic but its been like this since I went from the fixed setup to the motorized setup. The fixed setup was 89-97-101 but 89 and 97 are coming in lower too and some tps on 97 don't come it at all now like 12084 V 22000 and 12115 V 22425 even bumping sometimes helps. Almost thinking of going back to the fixed setup. Iliked watching Al Kass for its sports but now it if'y at best.

Musher, it appears your motor/dish needs fine tuning but also consider the damaged AMC-4 transition to SES-1. We will likely experience some strange effects during the next few weeks and for the 97W, those signals are like a handfull of spaghetti noodles dropped on the kitchen floor.

The combination of all the issues make this a tough one for many so hang in there and hope for the best. Just to give you an idea, I recently reaimed a dish for a friend, from 101W to 97W. When I peaked the QS on 11842 @ 83% I lost signal on a few others, when I finally found a common average position for all frequencies, the QS on 11842 was 54% QS, what a loss to sacrifice!!! There seems to be just enough to get by on.

IMO, I think the G-19 (97W) satellite engineer's need to go to school again or stop drinking so much coffee. :eek:
 
Well I checked the setup and it was leaning forward so is was no longer plumb. So I put some shims under the temp mount that it is on and almost all SQ came back up even on 101 History is now at 60%. Will check back later in the day and tonight also. Its been so windy here in SE Wisconsin haven't been able to get back on the roof to re-plumb that mount.
Can't wait till SES-1 comes online soon. Wonder if that will help with SQ?

maybe. We dont know right now but all that has been posted is that signal is "good" in US & Canada. Its when you are in Central America does it drop off (according to reports)
