I noticed today that I am able to receive the RT channel on SES 6 when the dielectric plate is placed in one of the two possible slots on my ESX241 LNB. If I move the dielectric plate to the opposite slot I am no longer able to receive the RT channel,however, I am able to receive a different...

Thanks, I did follow Magic Static's recommendations and I was able to view KU high band frequencies as well as all of my c-band channels. I do want the KU low band frequencies so I will be in the market of buying a new uncommitted diseqc switch. Thanks for all the help!

For my receiver, the instruction manual indicates that if a univeral LNBF is used, the 22KHz switch setting will be automatically set to AUTO - I don't believe I can alter this setting.

I installed an Ecoda 2-1 Sw22 22KHz directly to the output of my geosat pro hd receiver. My c-band dish is connected directly to one of the LNB outputs of the Ecoda switch. The other output of the Ecoda switch feeds my KU dish motor. The motor is connector to a 4x1 diseqc switch which feeds...

I did consider that option. The distance between the BUD and KU dishes is ~ 100ft. The distance from my receiver to the KU dish is ~90ft. I do not want to dig up the lawn (100 ft) to run the cable between the 2 dishes. Also, I wasn't sure whether the distance of the cable run thru the diseqc...

I guess I am confused on how I would switch between the lnbs installed on the KU dish (4x1 diseqc) via the 8X1 diseqc?

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I am not clear on your recommended setup. From ny receiver I would connect to an 8X1 dieseqc 1.1 switch. Then one of the outputs of this switch would feed to the motor on the KU dish and another output to the fixed c-band dish? Is this correct?

I recently installed a c-band prime focus dish. I also have a motorized KU dish which is approximately 100ft away from the c-band dish. The motorized KU satellite has 2 lnbs connected to a diseqc switch. My question is as follows: Is there a switch I can add to my system which will allow me...

Some success. I was able to pull in a few channels on tp 4021 L and MTV Brasil in the clear. I am using a WS 6096 meter which has a small display so I am able to see the channels. My Q signal level is only in the 40s. I guess I will need to spend some time adjusting the satellite.

I have two questions : Regarding the dish elevation. Using dishpointer (website) I found that the elevation for my dish should be 31.8 for NSS 806. I have an inclinometer, I mounted the inclinometer as depicted in the attached photo. The inclinometer is parallel to the surface of the...

Yes, I have installed a motorized KU dish before. I probably will need to read up on how to set the dish elevation. Unlike my KU setup, the c-band dish does not appear to have an elevation scale on its mount.

I believe the LNB I have is a BSC621 C/Ku LNBF.

This is my first attempt to install a c-band system. I have no prior experience with c-band.

I am hoping to install 6 ft c-band dish to receive signals from NSS 806 satelite located at (40.5W). If I am reading the lyngsat footprint correctly it seems that I should be able to receive signals from this satellite. Does anyone know whether a 6ft dish will suffice for the Boston...

I believe I reset the East Limit of the microHD. Not sure how to test this though.
