I want to win the all new FastAlign 7100Pro signal meter with AutoFind technology exclusively from LEXIUM

I resemble those remarks.

I took a day off work today, so it would be a four day weekend:) Buried 1 1/4" PVC Conduit from the shop to the new BUD, pulled the cable through and hooked everything up. Couldn't get signal on one of the channels from the GeoSat C2, will have to troubleshoot that another day. Have a great...

Always good to get a new toy. I think you will like the HD experience. If you're not in a big hurry for a HDMI cable ebay has some good prices. Take care

Prayers on the way for both of ya. I hope your Mom has a quick recovery.

Anole, It was a link that you posted in this thread that helped the light come on in my thinking. http://www.satelliteguys.us/c-band-satellite-discussion/186523-declination-angle.html Thanks for the help.

Hello everyone, Well the Sami is tracking the arc. I spent about six hours trying to find my true south satellite with no luck and then I read through Dee Ann’s thread again and another thread about declination and figured out that I was using the wrong elevation. I was using the elevation...

Thanks Brian, I'll try out the Android version. Take care

Has anyone tried using the Dish Pointer Pro app. for FTA satellites? If so what are your thoughts? Was thinking about purchasing but would like to get some real life FTA reviews. Thanks

If y’all don’t mind, could you check the settings I’ve been using? My location is ZIP Code 24210 Latitude 36.78 Longitude 81.90 Dish Pointer says my True South Sat is 82W but I am trying for 83W (no C-Band on 82W) Dish Elevation 47.3 Declination chart says 5.8 Polar angle 41.5...

Thank you for checking again Phlatwound. Does this transponder require manual PID entry? I am using a Fortec Star Dynamic receiver and cannot enter these manually, or I don't know how if you can. I will have to use the AZBox if the Fortec will not work. Have a great day

Well I had a chance to try to find the transponder on 83W today with no success after three hours. Will have to try again in a few days.

Thank you phlatwood, just wanted to make sure it was still there before looking for it. Take care

Getting ready to try pointing this dish. My true south Sat.is 82W so I will have use 83W to for the initial pointing and The List shows one C-Band transponder on this Sat. Has anyone checked this transponder lately to see if it is still active?SatelliteGuys.US_TheList - 83.0°W AMC 9 C Thanks

Thanks upnatm, Hopefully I can get some time to work on this thing soon Take care

Thanks guys, Now for a question: Is the focal length measured from the end of the LNBF tube or from the sensors inside the tube?

The actuator is a Super Jack II + I went out a hooked it up to the VBox and it seems to be working OK.

Hello everyone, Today the wife and I went and picked up a 10’ Sami from a kind Gentleman about three miles from our home. The pole the dish was setting on had no concrete in the hole so I don’t think it would track the arc very well. The dish passed the string test so I hope it will make a...

Thanks for answering my question, and for the mini-reveiw of your new toy. I will have to look into purchasing one of these.

Chewie, When you say "scan 2 satellites", does the meter have a blind scan?

I hate when that happens. If you make your entertainment center tall enough it will cover up your boo-boo.

I'm not sure, but you may need to adjust your dish a little bit.
