    Anyone having problem with Galaxy 3C?

    Okay had a chance to try your suggestion and the good news news is that I was able to capture transponder 12084H in the skew H:0 V:90 the first time, but it was not repeatable when I Blind Scan it again the second time around. Here are the results: Drake: Ku Band DSR950: Skew: H:0 V:90 Results...

    Great idea, yes that is the skew in the DSR905. I will try to change the H to 0 and the V to 90 and re-scan and get back to you here. Been tided up this week and will try it once I get some time this weekend.

    The skew screen is from the DSR905 and the others are from the CW.

    That is my next project if none of this doesn't works out. Take down the BUD and install a 36" Ku-Band motorized dish instead.

    I do know it, the Drake receivers' passwords is the model number. So for Drake 1824 ESR it is "1824" and for 1724 ESR it is "1724" and so forth.

    The screen is from the CW. I will try to see what is in the Drake's LNB settings. I guess the two LNBs is one for C-Band and the other for Ku-Band, not sure if that comes into play.

    Another strange development. I decided to change the LNB setting in the DiSEqC CW to LNB2 and got over 80 transponders, is that even possible ? ...LoL I will try with re-scan on LNB2 at -45/45 and -90/90 and 0 tonight DSR905 LNB2: 90 Results: 80 Transponders/66 Channels

    Here are the results with the skew at -45/40, -90/90 and 0: DSR905 LNB1: -45 Results: 8 Transponders/56 Channels DSR905 LNB1: 45 Results: 9 Transponders/46 Channels DSR905 LNB1: -90 Results: 12 Transponders/56 Channels DSR905 LNB1: 90 Results: 12 Transponders/66 Channels DSR905 LNB1...

    I will remove the DSR905 from the equation after testing with it in. I know the LNB settings on the Drake in the Setup menu which is password locked.

    The polarator/servo motor wires are connected to the DSR905 sidecar which is then T'ed back to the Drake's polarator terminals. The CW uses a DiSEqC which is then connected to the C and KU band LNB ports(used a splitter) on the back of the DSR905 which is then T'ed back to the Drake.

    Anyone having problem with Galaxy 3C?

    I hear the polarity motor moving at the dish as it doing the Blind Scan, plus it does lock onto transponders in both V and H or am I missing something ? What would have changed that the CW can't recieve now, would the firmware not recognize a certain transponder or satellite ? I just want to...

    Anyone having problem with Galaxy 3C?

    Ok, I was able to find the V skew adjustment in the DSR905 from -90 to 0 to +90 which was at -90 at T5 so I move it to 0 and did another Blind Scan and I got one or two different transponders, but still no 12084 V. So then I decided enter the 12084V/20760/3/4 in the T5 transponder list in the...

    Anyone having problem with Galaxy 3C?

    I think the Amiko Mini is out of the choices because it doesn't have any RF input/output. I know its a HD receiver with HDMI output, but my Drake reciever is like 15-20 feets away from my TV and I don't think running a HDMI cable that long would be advisable.

    Anyone having problem with Galaxy 3C?

    I will give it one more try with the Drake on Ku-band and then I will take the DSR905 out of the equation and connect the CW straight to the Drake. What would you recommend now as a FTA receiver ? These FTA receiver companies come and go and there is no firmware support for new birds in the sky.
