    Dish Sat Spacing?

    I thought you had Bell Fibe ? And have or had Dish as well, can't imagine you are now planning on going FTA as well....lol

    Dish Sat Spacing?

    MCIBUS, I would suggest a quick Google search for a Toroidial Dish, I once set one up with 12 lnbf's but I am pretty sure 16 or more lnbf's/Sats are possible. 61, 73, 82, 91, 101, 103, 105, 107, 110, 117, 119, 121.

    BEV missing channels

    As even channels are using the highest voltage (18v) it is possible that something has increased the resistance on the cable. That is normally a splitter or could be water ingress. As you only state Nimiq 82 evens, it could also be a switch, LNBF problem.

    Dish Network dish - Bell TV service?

    I could be wrong but I am pretty sure that there is a switch installed within the LNBF and is an integral part of it, so it cannot be removed. Each Coax should see 3 orbital slots. I guess there is nothing to loose trying to aim it but with this set up I am not sure that the Bell Receivers...

    Dish Network dish - Bell TV service?

    If there is a large one and a smaller one then it would appear you have a system set for 3 orbital slots. The smaller LNBF could be disconnected.

    Dish Network dish - Bell TV service?

    Your Dish, LNBF and Switch's (if installed) should all work with Bell Services, unless it is wired for a Hopper System. So if you could give us a clue as to what is existing we can almost certainly clarify things for you. You will, of course, need to re-aim the Dish/LNBF's to 91 & 82 degrees...

    GEOSATpro Micro HD

    Thanks for that. Lots of reading to do.

    GEOSATpro Micro HD

    Thanks for that quick reply. I was wondering about the PAL/NTSC thing and wondered if that was still an issue with HDMI. As for the SCART plugs, I had forgot all about those hideous things, they are monsters.....lol There is only HDMI so Composite is not an issue. It accepts a 12Vdc Power...

    GEOSATpro Micro HD

    I am heading to the UK in a short while, is it worth taking the Micro HD with me, or is it specifically a North American Model.?

    TSN3 HD

    Cool, that's good to know. It never used to be on 82.

    Where to buy a fta receiver that can do it all?

    I totally agree. Get a separate receiver for OTA, then if one craps out, you still have some TV.... Although, most newer TV's have the ATSC Tuner built in, so maybe just connect the OTA Antenna directly to the TV..
