What size Superjack do u have on your 7.5'?

How about a remote for Echostar 600?

Let me clarify. Im not tilting lnbf, I made the bracket to adjust up and down to find center. The only reference I have to where the old feedhorn was located is the pdf I downloaded that shows how to install original hughes equipment. Every time I adjust I make sure lnbf is parallel w/ support...

@Anole: universal, 10.600, that's the setting the lnb called for. @gpflepsen: I set azimuth & elevation for 97w, I hadn't tried true south tho. That's the same pdf I was trying to scale off of for lnb setting. Didn't have any luck, that's when I came up with the unistrut bracket so I could...

I made a bracket out of unistrut so I would be able to adjust lnb up and down to find center instead of guessing. I am about to the point where I am starting to believe the lnb isn't working. I have adjusted up&down, in&out, different declinations, skews. Nothing. Even I weren't aimed perfectly...

Lol yea that's kinda what I was thinking, but that is the only thing I did different was change the LO and it pulled in sound. Also tuned 125w today on 11250 LO, and it worked fine (horizontals). My son enjoyed the cartoons on PBS :)

Thanks all. Just an update. Had to set my LO to 11250 and I got sound on 97w. Still only pulling in horizontal tho. Will have to work on making that new bracket.

How do I go about mating lnb to existing feedhorn? The good thind here is, I can be my own machinist :). I am a welder/pipefitter by trade, so I have access to the tools to make my anything I need ;).

Tuned 97w but no sound :(. Tuned 3 other sats and I had sound on all of them, but not on 97. Quality at 75% @ FatAir. I believe you are correct about it being single polarity tho. Its showing TPs being vertical, but they are the same #s as the horizontal #s. Would a normal FTA lnb work at the...

Well its works. Don't think I am aligned properly for 97w tho. Hit tv and radio channels. Not sure which sat. Was only getting horizontal. Adjusted skew and got vertical. Tv is: 12121/H/30000. Radio: 12121/H/30000, 11705/H/3649. It listed same TP numbers for vertical.

Sorry about the pictures. Went on the mobile site this time and tried loading. Thanks.

I have been eyeing a dish on our local pharmacy for about a month. Went yesterday and asked about it, got in touch w/ owner today. They let me have it for free :) ,providing I took away the base and the concrete block holding it down. No problem there! Although I didn't know until I went on the...

Update: I had originally set lnbf to what old lnb was set to. After using formula from link mmewrench posted, lnbf is dead on. I have tuned all satellites from 78w- 139w, except 83w. W/ satellites I have tuned picking up ALL FTA channels on 87w-97w listed on Lyngsat. (Haven't checked lower...

@ Anole: it was my understanding that dish skew had to be set according to your location. Does it work better leaving it at zero? @FatAir: tried scaling picture(I am using a smart phone) the best I could come up w/ the lnbf needed to be raised about 7/8 of an inch. I am standing in front of...

BAM BABY!!!!!! Gentelmen, I have OFFICIALLY joined the FTA world :) Finally got new lnb hooked up after a couple days of bad weather. First bird I tried was 91W. All channels tuned. CW had 89% Quality. Haven't tried to optimize yet. But I'm happier than a kid at christmas right now! A HUGE...

Thanks guys. Will see if I have enough daylight when I get home to hook new lnbf up. Forgot to mention that I did string test over the weekend and it passed.

Received new cband only lnbf today, BSC421. You guessed it, I have a few questions. Im assuming the numbers on the side are to adjust focal, and numbers on top are for skew? But what is the small rectangle thing in the plastice bag for? And should the focal&skew be set somewhere close to where...

Thanks FatAir. Unfortunately I don't have the original lnbf. Hate to say it but original owner threw it away! :( I am using Ku lnbf Avenger PLL321S-2. I found center of dish, then held a 2foot level on that and got it parallel w/mast. Measured up from mast to bottom of level to find center from...

I am trying to set up a Hughes dish for 97w. From the research I have done, the model I have, AN8 074P, was intended for Ka. My question is, if I use the original lnb mounting mast, would the offset be the same for a Ku lnb? Using Avenger PLL321S-2 Ku lnb. I have set declination and skew...

@ Lak7: Lnb is pulling in horizontal and vertical frequencies regardless of polarity setting. I have adjusted polarities to many different settings. 60 & -30 seem to be the constant on any sat. This is not the lnb I ordered to start out w/, so I wasn't happy w/ it anyway. (Not from SatelliteAV...

Probe is moving, already checked that. Haven't tried string test, will this weekend. Channels at -30 polarity are as follows: 4177/H/3000; 4113/H/31249; 4153/H&V/30000; 4073/H&V/30000. All are scrambled except Mediaset & 4177. Channels at 60 polarity: 4176/H&V/30000; 4097/H&V/31249; all...

I have picked up random channels off many satellites. But many i cannot confirm which satellite, as they are not listed on Lyngsat. The only ones I can confirm are as follows. 87W:TP23, which isn't picking up anymore. 107W:TP10B. 121W.TP21. And the main satellite I want, 91W, I'm almost positive...

Thanks for all the comments. Found splitter. But I am still not pulling in anything that I wasn't before.

Thanks beavs. You guys are beyond freaking awesome! And yes Brian, this is a huge pain in my rear controlling polarity like this. Will probably soon be looking into switching to a lnb/feedhorn combo. Wanted to convince the wife it would actually work before putting more $ into it tho. She said...

Analog connects to power pass side, Microhd to the other, coax from satellite to single connection on top?
