Nice Farm!

When I was scanning the arc 139W to 45W yesterday we had our usual round of thunderstorms move through. This morning I did a pass from W-E & then E-W and everything is working 100% better than before the firmware update! For whatever reason I guess my timing was right to ask for help just as the...

Brian, The update you just posted made a significant improvement (in the short time I have tested). Seems to be landing very close if not dead on going E-W and W-E. Thanks for a great product and terrific support!

Brian, Its landing short of the satellite, I have to take a look not sure if it happens when I go east to west. For some oddball reason I seem to mostly go west to east! I'll check and see what version firmware I have loaded. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll let you know what I find out!

Mike, I'm using ribbon cable, (the good stuff! lol). Drain wire is connected at the actuator.

I have been using the ASC-1 controller for about 5 months now. Really love how it works! However I'm having a problem that did not occur with my G-Box controller. I'm almost always off about 8-10 counts to the West and have to move the dish 8-10 counts to land on the satellite. I have tried...

Red would look nice amongst all the standard black boxes in the rack Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

I received it fine on my 6FT Unimesh back in CT. Now without trees in the way using my 10 footer

Carrier Freq 3996. Sym Rate is 15.120 DVB-S2

I started with a 10ft dish but upgraded to the 12ft to hsve more margin during bad weather. Some big changes coming in August as the data is going to be significantly increased which shouldn't pose a problem for the receive equipment but the computet for processing made need to be upgraded...

Bern running Noaaport for about 4 years. WX1CT Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

Thanks for the info. The satellite farm here is much bigger than the 1 dish but I figured for simplicity it would be easier not to fact in the other dishes to my question. I'll have to look into the splitter. I knew there would be a few different ways to integrate this into the system!

Thanks Iceberg! Understood with the re-scanning. Have to check my LNBF stockpile and see what I have!

FaT Air, Thanks for the input. Forgot about a Bandstacked LNBF! Also trying to keep this to 1 cable for more reasons than anyone would want to read about!

Iceberg, I knew I forgot something important! Currently using a single output PLL lnb on the Ku dish. Also only running one cable from this particular dish.

Trying to get a feel for the preferred way to use 2 receivers with 1 dish without looping the signal through one of the receivers. Thanks for any and all input!

You won't be disappointed! A very satisfied user :)

I used to be a very frequent customer now I stay clear, since they don't have much in the way of parts .

Brian, Thanks for the update!

Brian, Thanks for the update. Looking forward to getting the new ASC1 installed into my system !

I have to point out one thing in regards to a C-Band signal. Depending on what modulation, FEC etc is being used a C-Band signal can fade during rain. In a past life I worked as an uplink engineer at a large movie network (think 3 letters) and we had times where we lose the MPEG-4 downlink on an...

I may give that a try while awaiting the replacement unit. Thanks for the tip Cham :)

Brian, Thanks for the clarification. Nice to know once the replacement arrives the 22khz function will allow Ku reception on the big dish! Appreciate all your hard work! Phil
