    Satellite Combo

    Is it possible to receive three satellites at the same time? What I mean is, with one LNBF. I'm picking up Galaxy 17, Nimiq 1 and Galaxy 25 at the same dish position.

    The old question...dish alignment?

    I am trying to align a 8.5 Birdview dish with a DMX741 and using a SatHawk HD PVR800 receiver. I can't get the signal intensity above 45% or signal quality above 5%. I can find a signal using a satellite finder in-line with the coax. I do plan on using a GBox as soon as I install safety limit...

    old birdview

    Hello everyone! I just joined today and have a few questions. I have acquired a c-band birdview dish which doesn't have the typical arm actuator like some dishes, what can I use to be able to move the dish and what kind of receiver could I use? I would like to receive in digital. Here's what I...
