    101 SES-1 Mood

    I've been using it all long noticed yesterday nothing. Of coarse now we're into the cold temps. Figured I'd ask here, everything OK with the mood channels? No new changes? Long weekend coming so I'll have time to try to the dish.

    How accurate is Lyngsat today?

    I setup a dish on 97W, I did a scan and I seem to have everything. I was looking at the radio channels and I specifically did not scan in WWCR and Globestar 3, the information looks to be almost a year old. Can anyone confirm?

    I want to make sure before I mess anything up. I was setting up a new LNB and diseqc arrangement. Now I have duplicate channels where one is "no signal" and the other is good. What is the best way to clean this up so when I watch TV I am only getting active channels?

    two diseqc switches

    I currently have two fixed dishes and I use a simple pansat 1.0 4x1diseqc to switch between the two and that's great. I want to swap out the LNB on one of my dishes with one of these DMS International Model: JSC-MB4-2 From what I under stand you can cascade switches but it would have to be 1.0...

    Using C/KU LNB

    I have plans to fix a 10 foot dish I have at 101 SES 1. Will I have any success using these dual band LNBs that I see on ebay, (or any someone recommends). I don't have plans to motorize the dish. I did some some threads, but they're quite old

    My KU FTA system is back online.

    Dual LNBF

    So I have what I believe is a 10 foot orbitron dish. It has the button hook for the lnb arm/ holder. I've read many people on here say the C/KU LNBFs are very fussy. With that said I don't want a corotor setup, I'd like to receive C and KU using one 10 foot dish so I can keep the amount of...

    GT Media V8

    Anyone use these GT media V8 satellite finders? For the price I thought about getting one for a future setup of a C and KU dish at my camp. Seems handy, I'm not a pro and figure it would hold up well for the minimal use it will see. The only reviews I've seen are by the happu satellite nerd...

    So I'm about to buy some parts to add a second KU dish. I've been shopping for a switch and a LNBF and a switch. I've noticed that some LNBFs say "HDTV approved" I don't know what makes it approved but I can imagine there would be a difference, but some of the switches say the same thing. So...
