Thanx! I've got a PC set up just for streaming with remote software, TV and amp remote software, turning lights on and off, wifi thermostat, fire stick, security cams etc.. The problem was finding decent streams. Your link just made it greater. I LOVE YOU MAN!! I've also been talking to the...

However, Cozi tv is on Ku band 103w 11760 H DVB-S2 8PSK 30000 Fec-5/6 SID 7. You need 9.4 C/N (dB) to lock that signal, so IF you aim and tune well, you should be able to get that one with what you have right now. Yeah. I've got the C band lnb. I just haven't found a dish big enough yet...

Got it. So when I set it to universal freq scan doesn't particularly mean I'm seeing the right channel. I hate to bug you guys but another question. What I'm looking for are those unencrypted diginets that are on OTA channels. Those OTA sub channels I can't get in my location. I'm just a little...

Maverick MK1-PLL. I kept resetting the receiver and re-scanning the same bird. In one scan, I'd find a certain set of channels on 10750. I'd reset it and do another blind scan and I'd get channels at 5150 and lose the others. When I started playing around with this universal channel scan setting...

Little late nite fun. Looking through the receiver setup, I found a universal freq setting that could scan from 5150 to 11476 when doing another blind scan. I reset the receiver and found 20 channels. Some are dupes but I ended up with more channels. I found sat SES 2 and was wondering are...

Gotcha! Thank you guys again. Learning this all is quite a task. The manual this cheap receiver came with isn't very helpful. You've all given me some great advice. Hey! 22 bucks invested in the receiver and lnbf and I'm having fun!

I understand the V and H polarization. I've also found 3 satellites that do provide programming that I can watch. I'm just playing with finding other sats now. What I'd like to know is how to find out what satellite that does provide a feed that I'm I'm picking up. I'd think it would tell me...

Impatiently awaiting my c band lnbf, but I'm still a little confused. I've found half a dozen sats so far. I can't figure out what all these numbers mean tho. For instance, when doing a scan what the numbers mean and what sat and channel they are on. By the time I've mulled through half a dozen...

This gets better every post! What I was looking for were the diginets. According to the list, there are over 500 FTA feeds.. A lot of doubles but still a lot of stuff I can't pick up on my ota antennas. Got a guy who has an 8 foot dish. All I have to do is go pick it up. Not sure how I'll...

Okay. Another dumb question. Can I use a c band lnbf on my receiver? FTA Satellite Receiver DVB-S2 TV

Thanx for the input!

I understand that. That said, I ran across an article that said a C band lnb and a bigger dish will pick up unencrypted channels like the subs you get on OTA. There are far more of these than what I can pick up on my OTA antennas. I've got quite a few on my OTA antennas but nowhere near all of...

Well I finally managed Galaxy19. Lots of channels but I haven't got 42 different languages I know. I had better luck on Galaxy 17 but aren't much of a sports fan. What I was hoping for were some of the sub stations that come on OTA tv like THIS tv and others. I was led to believe most of these...

You're right. I've got so many numbers rolling through my tired old brain. I wonder how many FTA channels are coming out of Galaxy 17. May be a better choice. Thanx for pointing it out.

Thanx for cluing me in. Maybe Google Earth image alignment isn't the greatest way to plot the path.
