    Still Fighting Intermittent Interference

    Thanks for the ideas! I was looking for a way to get my laser to work for alignment so this helps quite a bit. As soon as the deep freeze lets us I hope to try this out. Thanks again!

    Still Fighting Intermittent Interference

    A small update on things. I checked the signal parameters tonight when things were working good and found C/N on 4180 to be 10.39Db and fluctuating slightly but never out of the 10 db range. Meter is showing signal level at 72 and quality also at 72. In my thinking that is approaching too low to...

    Still Fighting Intermittent Interference

    I haven't caught anything yet on the spectrum analyzer but then again the problem is intermittent enough it's hard for me to get setup in time. I have noticed today CNR was 10db when it was working normally and varied only down to 9 when the problem was happening. I noticed my quality reading...

    Still Fighting Intermittent Interference

    I have been having this problem for probably close to 5 years now on and off. I ordered the C140 Titanium LNB and have it installed now but I'm still having the trouble as much as before, strangely. Odd thing is it only affects 4180 H on 101 W other carriers are fine, and even stranger when it's...

    Another Spectrum Auction?

    If streaming is the future I hope everybody else's experience with it is better than mine. I have only two streaming subs and both of em together couldn't make a decent picture. Watching anything on Frndly is a guaranteed red face event. I have to alter the color setting so much to get it close...

    Titanium Satellite Announces the Release of the 5G Blue Filter C-Band LNBF Models - C140 and C240

    Looks like I'm going to have to make this investment later this year. To my surprise US Cellular is building 5 towers in and around my local area. None are within line of sight but considering the sheer number of sites it will likely be just strong enough to cause problems. I'm guessing the blue...

    Any one not getting the Weigel channels?

    Streaming is almost more trouble than it's worth given the quality LOL

    Any one not getting the Weigel channels?

    Me either and especially for locations like mine that is shielded by terrain in all directions preventing OTA from happening. One would think that the more readily the programming is to access the better their sponsors would like it. I know it's left me with just PBS I can watch now:) There are...

    Any one not getting the Weigel channels?

    I always recorded that one for the wife. Wonder if there is a box set of Blacksheep? Friendly lists H&I but don't show Blacksheep or 12 oclock high. I sent an email to inquire why they are picking and choosing what they want to show on that network but I doubt I'll ever get a reply back...

    Any one not getting the Weigel channels?

    I went to Friendly a while back but I cant say I'm all that pleased with the content or programming quality. They seem to pick and choose what and when they air things. H&I is the worst if you like Walker Texas Ranger then this is the place to be. They only show one Combat and no 12 O Clock High...

    Any one not getting the Weigel channels?

    I was afraid they would be encrypted! That does suck! I can get some of it on Friendly but the quality of the picture is pitiful compared to anything else and OTA is a no go here. Well it was an awful good run and I'll miss them but not anything I can do bout it now as Willie Nelson sang LOL

    Need help to identify unknown interference

    I used moth ball at remote radio site and had good luck with the bee population also. I didn't get any in my new new enclosure and now I'm kinda wondering whether I should inspect soon or wait till it's about 10 degrees outside which will be way too soon for my liking :)

    Need help to identify unknown interference

    Still having problems with this particular carrier. Seems worse in the day time hours but I'm getting 92% CNR at both time slots.
