Just to add to primestar31's warning (though I am sure most of us know this), unless your receiver has a rocker on/off switch (such as my AZBox), you must unplug the receiver to kill the power completely (such as my Amiko), as standby/off does not ensure all power to the LNB is off.

It depends on where in Texas you are located. You may be outside of the beam. Go to SatStar.net - Satellite Data and check the footprint for the Caribbean H/V Beam (Ku). Did you get any signal at all (for example on the stronger French service transponders)?

I am in Southwestern Ontario and have no problem getting 34.5W on my 80cm (except for one transponder, 11100 V 45000, which needs pinpoint accuracy, and a larger dish would be better).

All eleven of mine are also in the 11700 - 12200 range..

My LNB for 93w needs a signal to tweak it, but I do now and then get a bleed-over from 91w, which has 11 transponders with a SR of 63999 (according to my Amiko). So you could be getting bleed-over from there. EDIT: 11 transponders, not 6 as first typed.

Semi-spoiler alert: LOL!

It did, and the last few episodes were excellent.

The satellite: https://www.lyngsat.com/Astra-2E-2F-2G.html

https://www.satbeams.com/footprints Doesn't do everything that satstar.net did, but close. You can zoom in on a footprint and click on your location and it will tell you the EIRP and the recommended dish size. Only have to click on your location for the first footprint you try, change...

Not really surprised to see it cancelled, partly given SYFY's history in general. But, while I do like the show quite a bit, it seemed to me that it had sort of run its course near the end of last season.

Hopefully, it will be a satellite for us (video and radio)! Since their filing a couple of months ago to request the Ku band, I put an LNB on my 99/105 dish in anticipation. Just waiting for a signal (after approval) to tweak the LNB! We need a "new" (just a few years old) satellite for Ku...

For those of us in Canada, ST:SNW will be broadcast on CTV Sci-Fi Channel starting at 9 pm EDT (two episodes) on July 17th.

For those of us in Canada, it was also on at the same time on the CTV Sci-Fi channel.

It's back up now.

Yes, Reuters is there at 12122 H 17000.
