Info About Brasil B4 @ 84 West

[Blue Crystal]

Does anyone know if I can hit 84 w with an BSC621-2 LNBF?
I am also using a C Works 800 receiver with a 10 ft. C/K band dish.
Moving the dish by hand. Each time I think I am on it an scan I get a lot of media feed channels that are scrambled. But I do not get any of the channels that show on the channel list.
If my LNB is ok I must not be on the sat or maybe wrong settings.
Any Ideas?

Those channels are beamed to Brazil, so If you are not in the immediate area you will not get any of those channels listed.

That sounds like a good reason. My receiver had Brasil B3 at that location, so I thought I could just substitute and enter the transponders, by hand, and hit B4. I guess it was a good try anyway.

Thanks

Here is the footprint on B4 so you can see what area gets the most coverage.

lots of receivers have sats listed that we cant get....my azbox has all the Eastern satellites too so have to remove them

well it does not hurt to try with a big dish I see post on other forums that people in the deep south can get 61 on a 1.5 meter dish

61W can be picked up anywhere. I get it fine on a 6 footer in Minneapolis
