Did Al Jazeera 645 move from 61.5 or is it out from solar spots?

Looking for Farsi programs for the wife.

Can more than 4 LNBs be connected to a Nexus card using a 4X1 plus 22Khz switches? How? Where does one make settings for 22Khz switches in Ritz or ProgDVB? Satellites of Interest: 61.5, 91, 97, 110, 119, and 121

Cascade, Thanks for your input. What is meant by a "long run" ? I have heard that term many times, but defined very few. 50 feet? 75 feet? 100 feet? I have heard that a Diseqc switch should be very close to the receiver/card. But I can't recall hearing about 22 Kh switches having "short run"...

Can a 22 Khz switch be cascaded in to a Diseqc switch using a Nexus, or can you only do that in a receiver?

Iceberg, Thanks for the response. In the case of using the Diseqc to combine(?) the H & V of the P* lnb, what would be the setting for switch Type: None or LNB 1 ? I just got a 2nd hand 3X4 multi switch and am wondering if that is flakey. That is why I want to feed the P* lnb directly to the...

Thanks, I had asked if I could run the FSS lnb straight into the nexus. You answered, Yes, wither H or V. Now, let me modify the question, Can I run either the H or V thru the DiSEqc and then to the Nexus? And what would LOFs be? Thanks again for your help

Can I use a SW21 to combine the HV outputs of a P* lnb, and then feed the Sw21 output to a port on a Diseqc 4X1 that feeds a Nexus? Some guy in a chat room says he is doing that way and it works. On the other hand I read in an info blurb: "It is very important to emphasize that the SW-21...

Iceberg, No, not as yet. Have to wait until my soc. security check arrives. <g> And I'm confused with the terminology of Linear Vs Standard in respect to LNBs. So if I want to hit FSS at 121, what do I need? Thanks Also, I have to finish cobbleing together a non-penetrating roof mount for...

Thanks all, it helped a lot. I believe Iceberg came the closest. The dish came from the Phila viewing area, and the son-in-law of the previous owner said he sold the switch on ebay and seemed to recall the number 64 in the model/type. Today I took the arm with lnbs to a D**h dealer/Installer...

I have a Channel Master 36"X24" Superdish(?) w/ 3 LNBs. ALL 3 have TWO coax leads. The two side-saddle Lnbs are LNBFs. The main, focal point LNB on the support arm looks like a Primestar LNB. The sidesaddle bracket(on the left side of the support arm, facing the dish) has markings: "Outer...
