Hola jpr777, I have Shawdirect now but look forward to get something better, therefore I will appreciate if you can you tell me if by getting all of this I will get DTV HD channels in mexico city: Receiver: DTV HD Antenna: 2.4 meters KU band LNB: Dual Eagle Aspen C band LNB: SL3 Zinwell C band...

I've got two 1.2m dishes, and according to the sat calculator the dates have past. The interesting thing is that I do get a few channels during the day and all igoes back to normal in the evening. Anyways, I'll get on the roof and see if it's a matter of fine tunning and will post my results...

Hello everyone, my SW setup has been working great. However, a couple of weeks ago I noticed that the signal for a bunch of channels drops out during the day. From 6pm to 10am all seems to work fine though. Could this have anything to do with solar flares at this time of the year?

Thanks to all for your kind help, I was finally able to lock on to the Anik F1 signal. Both the satfinder and dishpointer app for the iphone worked great for pinpointing the exact sat's location. However, I didn't notice that I had plugged one short piece of RG59 cable from the satfinder to...

I just bought a satfinder (perfect vision model PVSF22K) and got on the roof today to try finding Anik F1. According to what I can see on my brother's iPhone (he downloaded the dishpointer app) I do have a clear line of sight. I lined up the antenna to 198 degrees azimuth and 65.5 for...

By the way, just in case I find myself unable to get my ShawDirect system to work, does anyone have info about a good, decently priced installer in Mexico City that could help me with this? Thanks a bunch!

That is correct, I'm using lineal lnb's, not my old lnb's which are circular. I just went up to the roof again to check the readings the antenna pointing to DN 110w satellite. I placed the protractor right on the middle of the dish and it gave me 55 degrees. I will then lower the other...

Thank you for answering joshuals and nope, no insult taken. 6 months ago I had DN (with both sats, 119 & 110 working great and no line of sight problems whatsoever) but as you know... those signals are now gone from Mexico City and I never bothered reorienting the sat dishes until today...

I'm in Mexico City (south side), have 2 antenas (1.2m each), 2 lineal LNB's and a 505HD box. I tried catching Anik 1 today (203.78 azimuth and 65.32 elevation) but can only get a signal of 22. Any suggestions of what I can do? Gracias!!
