I want to win an Edision OS Mio 4k with TNAP image

The average door height is 80" or 6'8" by code. that dish is slightly larger than the door height so probably a 7-7.5' dish by my eye.

Looks like a 7.5' dish to me. All of the 7.5' dishes I've had the feedhorn supports attach to the rim of the dish like that. All of the 10' dishes I've had the supports are inboard of the rim by about 8-10" or so.

Thanks, Brian. I sent an email to your support address.

Thanks, Brian. I agree those were great troubleshooting suggestions. KE4EST is correct. My auto ranging multimeter is too slow to see the voltage. I have figured out what the problem is. Seems I have an intermittent short in one of the motor wires. Best I can figure is that it is occurring at...

I haven't had time yet today, but i can try later. From what I understand from searching the forum, it should at least put out a voltage for 1/2 second across M1 and M2 then stop if either the sensor or sensor circuit was not working. Does that sound right?

Everything else seems to be working. Polarity control is fine. Unit powers up. Just doesn't move the dish. The actuator indeed works with another controller. Stinks because it is less than 1 year old and it would be nice to figure out what happened so I can repair it.

Thanks. I assumed that was how it was supposed to work. I will see if I can dig up a momentary switch and check the sensor circuit. I have also connected the ASC1 directly to the actuator as well as a good spare with a short piece of ribbon cable on my bench and it gives the E/W error on both...

Yes, All wiring is fine. It is something within the ASC1.

Yes, the reed switch tests fine. Also works with a 922 4DTV.

Thanks. I'm sure it's something simple enough. These have been great positioners and would love to keep it running.

Hello. I am on my second ASC1. The first one stopped powering on after a severe electrical storm. I the saw that they were being discontinued so i bought a refurbished one from Titanium's site instead of repairing the original. Now the refurbished unit will not move the dish. Gives the E/W limit...

Look at the chart. There was one transponder that was a test card used to identify the satellite. The rest of the transponders were available to anyone to rent for a fee. Are you just going to pick another satellite and ask the same question over and over?

The only people who would know which specific affiliate leased what satellite/transponder when would be whichever company owned SBS-4 at the time, possibly the television station themselves. I really doubt they would tell you who rented which transponder 20 years ago. It never was published...

This should answer all of your questions. Here is the Satcodx chart from Feb 1998, it is as detailed as you will find. It has everything your asking about and more. SATCO DX Satellite Chart: North and South America
