Update, Several days ago I put in the new lnbf. Because of my paranoia I actually put in a second 10 foot dish. I installed the titanium c1-ppl. Now, so far my sound on tcm seems to be solved and also my picture freezing problem. Thanks to all for all the help here, and I hope this may help...

Thanks titanium, I do have a spectrum analyzer. I am not sure what to look for here. Here is a image. What do you think

Oh Yeah, Sorry it was not skylink, it was Sky Vision, senility setting in. And oh yes i have read some stuff about the guy in chicago. I think that is who claims to do remapping and such. I saw some negative stuff and would be cautious about that.

Thanks guys, Yes I am in the middle of no where. But it is really quite beautiful here. I moved here 38 years ago and opened a tv repair shop. Closed it after divorce and been working for my ex mother in law in publishing company since. Now it is raining here, but it has been a pretty mild...

Hi Waylew, Thanks for the reply I do not believe there is anything like that here unless it is top secret. Check out where i live. Go to map and look up happy camp, ca....lol you will see what i mean. But no telling what is going on here, i often hear humming in my ears that no one else hears...

Hi Waylew, I just checked my diag C again after adjusting the position and now it is down to 1.25. Still have the drop outs. Would changing the position change the freq? or is this just a coincident. Also the day is a bit warmer today so that might have some barring on it. Will the freq change...

Thanks waylew, The scalar ring on my old lnb is larger then the new one. That was my first idea to just loosen the 3 set screws and slip the new on in. There is about half inch difference so i will have to change the ring also.

yes i messed up the id, not for you guys but you never know who is looking at stuff and what they can do. Do you need to know them? i can send in private message. can the tuning be changed or is that internal to the lnb. I do have a new lnbf and can put that in when the weather breaks. I have...

Line h is 6d, diag C is +1.125 and last number on 3 is +10.9. I attached images in case i am looking wrong Thanks

thanks sergei, I have used the 6778 to originally set the thing up. I do now know if i have a 6d or not, I do believe the poloroter is working properly now. I have unhook the polorotor after putting on the TCM channel and it still pops off at 40 seconds. My other stations seem to work normally...

Thanks for the info. I did notice that tcm was the only channel i get on trans 18. So you think that the polarity is drifting on that channel and then resetting? If i disconnect the 5 volts or the pulse going to the rotor should that eliminate the drop outs? Would that show in the polarity...

Thanks for your reply sergei, I think you are wrong about the channels. I do not think the channels have anything to do with comcast. Here is a list of the channels and there transponders and polarities from lyngsat: tp pol chn bio 1 v 201 cloo 1 v...

Thanks sergei, sgs, and Corrado, I have a 10 foot mesh dish with chaparral feed horn. The receiver is General Instruments 4dtv, there is no 920 or 922 on it, just says model 4dtv. My 10 channels are: h2, history, tmc, sifi, cloo, chiller, g4, ngc, bio, fxm. I do not have problem on any of...

hey fat air, thanks for answer. I seems to only do it on TCM. Once in a while i get break on there stations but not consitant. I timed it again and it is right at 38 seconds. I checked 7 rounds, all between 38.2 and 38.9. Could it be i have too strong of a signal coming in?

Anyone have trouble with sound on TCM? I have GI 4dtv receiver and have 10 channels from skylink. I have just installed it a month or so ago. I have trouble on TCM with the sound dropping out almost exactly every 41 seconds. The outage is only for a split second but is irritating. It is not the...
