I've had my 76cm roof dish pointed to 125 for some time now. The Montana PBS transponder 11917 V 2398 seems to be the stronger of the active transponders on this satellite (the other being 12181 V 30000 of course).

Once I peak 12181 V 30000, I get video choppiness on Montana PBS, even with my receiver showing full signal.

It's almost like I can't peak them both to a happy medium; it's one or the other. I've found a "sweet spot compromise" where the choppiness on Montana PBS is minimal, but I can't seem to eliminate it completely without hurting the PQ on the national PBS feeds.

Is this a common issue on this satellite?

Who get any signal on AMC-21? I lost Alls PBS feeds...any idea? No signal on each transponder.
 
This is a good reminder to get my 84E or 1m dishes set up. They're already on the patio, just need to fab some bases. I also need to get a new receiver as I think all I still have is an old coolsat 8000 out on the garage shelf of antiquities.

Hehe, I need to do a other test with a other dish,because I think i'm to far from AMC 21. To get PBS.
