    Switch question

    Here's a link from an older thread on a multi-lnbf offset for Ku: Best Way to Receive Whole Ku Arc With Fixed Dishes? BTW, the whole thread is an interesting read.

    CONTEST!! Enter to Win an Edision OS Mio 4K from Titanium Satellite - Ends 4/8/2019

    I want to win an Edision OS Mio 4k with The North America Project image As I'm currently in the process of reestablishing everything from a recent move, I think this would be a great addition to the new build.

    C-band graveyard in Diamond, Missouri

    Buy in bulk and save! I only partially investigated a few years ago, but there was/is a place like you posted around Emporia.

    What is this gadget?

    The chemical used is a peroxide solution. I use the same thing for cleaning my rigid gas permeable lenses.

    4 degree spacing on 1.2m dish

    Nice job, CN! I put together a similar setup for 97°W and 103°W. My better assembly is shown in My first multiple LNBF setup, if you scroll up from there you'll see the earlier part of the project. I had plans to expand on the multi-LNBF, but that didn't progress very far after I installed...

    Audio and Signal Meter Questions - Phillips 55" 4K

    I think something like the Sony box you describe might be what I ultimately need (or build a little platform for TV to sit above a soundbar). Tried a new Sony sound bar with this TV and it integrated nicely. However it blocked the sensor (as in your case). Returned the Sony sound bar today and...

    Audio and Signal Meter Questions - Phillips 55" 4K

    Yeah. The built-in speakers on this Philips are pretty deficient. Connected some old Dell speakers with powered sub-woofer into the headphone output and heard a definite improvement.

    Audio and Signal Meter Questions - Phillips 55" 4K

    Caught a mistake I made with this post... Philips, not Phillips. No luck on a built in signal meter. It's not convenient, but I have an external decoder box that I can hook up to check signal strength. As for the audio, I'm considering adding a sound bar to see if that gives any improvement...

    Audio and Signal Meter Questions - Phillips 55" 4K

    Thanks for the reply Waylew. I had checked for something like that as it was a Sony that was replaced, but didn't see anything of the sort. Also, it seems the Phillips has only a full scan option for channels without an option to scan only for new channels.

    Audio and Signal Meter Questions - Phillips 55" 4K

    Phillips 55" 4K - 55PFL5601/F7 Purchased the set on closeout last summer prior to moving. It was hooked up to the FTA satellite setup for a couple of months before the move (no OTA at previous location). First, noticed the audio was "different" than the 10 or 11 year old Sony that it...

    What LNB,LNBF,and should I use a feed horn on a 8'prime focus dish

    I also have separate C and Ku setups. On the C-band dish, I've have good experience with the Titanium C1-PLL LNBF for several years now.

    Field testing K30AL-D, Iola/Moran Kansas

    Lunch might be doable. No luck for K30AL here. TV Fool showed there might be a chance for reception, but it's 2-edge at 46 miles and -10.8 dB. A few snippings of the coverage area here with a modest 25' antenna height.

    Field testing K30AL-D, Iola/Moran Kansas

    I'm southwest of Iola (Fredonia) and can attest to the lack of reception in the area. We're in the middle of Joplin, Tulsa, Wichita and Topeka markets but can't really receive any of them. I've experimented with height, position, antenna type, antenna location and had no real results. KOAM &...

    Everything on 125W-Ku looks normal as of a couple of minutes ago on a 1.2m fixed dish.
