    Testing the new Titanium C138 Performance Plus C Band LNBF

    I'm desperate LOL. 5G has struck again and has been pretty much overwhelming my Perf+ Red LNBF for the last 2 weeks. Transponders on 4120MHz and up seem to be much more stable. Anything under is almost unwatchable.

    The CW, again - I thought it was moving from 91 W to 93 W but today it was only on 91 W?

    It is live again on 91w ITC in 4:2:0. Scans as CW Backup

    5G Interference on all Transponders

    I'm not sure. I don't quantitatively know how much the foil is helping to be honest. I'm just throwing ideas against the wall and seeing what sticks.

    5G Interference on all Transponders

    I don't currently have any test equipment. The sudden interference from Saturday night was over and gone on Sunday. Someone suggested it is possibly testing for the next power up of 5G. I was just a tad fed up and annoyed on Saturday evening. I had a great feed I missed. I'm sure it's inside...

    5G Interference on all Transponders

    I wish I had good news. I guess power up has happened again in my area. Everything is pretty well gone again, with the Perf Plus C238. It worked about 6 weeks. But I guess I'm out of luck now. Really need a blue model, Brian *wink, wink*

    Please review TNAP firmware slot/programming

    I figured it would be ok with TV for me because I don't record constantly. Just a show here and there. Or short snips of feeds and I didn't want to keep spinning the drive up and down.

    osmio4k (not plus) streaming

    Not to hijack, but you can connect 2 E2 receivers with the same image to send satellite from the server to the client? That's great. I have a mio and H7C.

    Why not a SSD?

    Why Can't Our Receivers Decode 4:2:2?

    I recorded some feeds recently and noticed the 4:2:2 files were nearly 4x the size of the 4:2:0 files of similar length. There is clearly a lot more data involved to process but I still don't understand why there hasn't been a receiver built to handle it without streaming it someplace else...

    ATSC3

    Exactly my point. I've tried telling people to relax and wait for things to develop. I'm not missing anything from 3.0 that I cannot find on my 1.0 channels.

    5G Interference on all Transponders

    I scanned 113w tonight and found a lot of channels in the 3800-3900mhz band to work perfectly. Absolutely no errors. But 3900 is pretty well completely gone. 3980 is watchable for some short periods but error correction eventually loses the battle. I thought it is interesting, but the channels...

    Troubleshooting AFN Broadcast Reception on 4.5 Meter Dish

    I use this calculator to figure out where the LNB needs to be. Focal distance is measured from the center of the dish to 1/4" inside the feedhorn opening. Prime Focus Satellite Antenna reflector calculation

    Anik F1R is still Alive

    I checked earlier today, and I did not find this channel. So don't be surprised if it is not there.

    5G Interference on all Transponders

    I used regular foil and then some spare reflectix bubble wrap.
