thanks, finally got it, all i can say is this transponder signal is very weak compared with PBS on the same satellite

very strange, mine is 8 foot, all the channel on 4140v cannot be received. But other transponders work such as PBS and ION

you must have a big dish to receive the weak signal, how many feet?

ses3, 103w DW english was there, now no signal. Can anyone see it?

>I can't find any BBC content on western FTA KU satellites. its availale on feeds from AMC21@125w PBS HD5 12155H6250 around 3 and 6 pm PDT or you can watch live streaming for free from internet here: http://www.giniko.com/watch-all-channels.php

>Just looked, nothin' but color bars and tone on the MPT channel. No loss. I'll just return to 116. i watched again on 11pm PDT, its there, it gives you goose bumps, purely propaganda, worse than RT or PressTV. you will see this logo on the upper left corner

MPT channel 3840V27690 Disgusting!

available in Anik F1R, nice!

six-feet (180cm) dish sometimes is not enough, 210cm dish is better, if you want to receive AMC1 or Anik F1R

you cannot expect too much from the FTA channels. IMO, Intersat21@58W C-band is the best choice. it got NHK HD, DW-latinoamerica, France-24 english, Korean Arirang, CCTV-4 and others. KU SatMex6 for Taiwan

i recommend watch NHK HD on C band 58W. They got the best 1080i quality. it carries a lot of asian news.

transponder 3521V27503

Intelsat 58W contains DW-tv, NHK-1080iHD, France24, Arirang(S.Korea), all in English, imo, the best
