I am looking for ribbon cable to hook up my actuator to asc1. The cable I have is falling short for permanent routing. I looked on ebay and other online sources but wasn’t able to find anything

Where can i buy a quality ballscrew actuator for my dish without spending too much. I doubt anyone sells them for cheap but figured I should still ask.

Can someone please confirm if they can see any active C-Band TPs on 111.1W.

I installed a new 10 footer a few days ago. I can get good signal from 87W-133W. The only satellite with any footprint here below 87W is 58W. Last year I tried the NHK tp on my 1.2m dish and was able to successfully lock it but with my 10 foot dish I cannot seem to lock onto 58W. I think the...

As some of you may know that I am in middle of a c band dish installation process. I am buying necessary parts such as lnb, controllers, etc. I will be placing an order for the ASC1 in the next few days and have decided on this feedhorn ADL C-band Feedhorn Feed Horn SAPM90 C Band cband PM90 |...

I got a sweet deal on a 10ft dish last year but due to personal reasons I was not able to get it set up then. I am ready to get this project going tomorrow. I have already applied for the digging permit and will be getting all the clearances in next 2-3 days. The dish I have is identical to the...

I found this dish on sale. Can someone recognise what brand this dish is.

I found an almost new 1.2m andrews dish on kijiji for $80. The dish is very clean and looks like it was kept indoors for most of its lifespan. One thing I noticed it does not have the original mount and has a smaller mount custom fitted. Maybe someone with experience can identify the mount.

I have a 10ft mesh antenna in storage which i am very eager to set up but due to cold Canadian winter I really cannot do anything because the ground is frozen. I recently got a used 1.2m Channel Master dish from a local seller which helped get my toes wet with C band. The dreaded winter will...

this dish is at the air traffic control building by my workplace. I want to ask them about it but then I realize there is no way something like this can be set up in a residential setting.

I am aware that a 3.4-4.2ghz lnb is not required in N.A because our C band operate on 3.7-4.2 spectrum. i was looking at norsat lnbs and was wondering if a 3.7-4.2 lnb has any benefits over 3.4-4.2 lnb. My only guess is that 3.7 would be better because it discards TI below 3.7 proving to be...

So i tried my first ever mini bud setup tonight. I have a 1.2m Primestar dish. I just taped the Titanium C1-PLL lnb over the holder ;) i know this is out of focus and not the perfect setup but perfection is for some other day. Withing 30 seconds i got a lock on 4000H (99.2W). I tweaked it a...

I am trying to setup a mini bud on my channel master 1.2 dish. As per my understanding I have to tune ku band first and then replace the ku lnb with C lnb. Can somebody confirm what TPs are active on this bird

I can get this dish for $70 delivered to my door including the NPRM. Wondering if this is a good deal and how better is this from the regular metal dish. And I believe that it has a weird lnb mount so would i have to use some duct tape like the original owner did in the picture?

i am moving to a new place that is about 8kms (5 miles) from an international airport. I am planning on installing a 10ft bud in my backyard. The dish will kind of have a direct line of sight to the airport with only some trees in the middle. I have read that the airport radar can significantly...

If money is no object what lnb and feedhorn combo would you guys recommend? I have heard good things about the bullseye ii feedhorn but all I am interested is C band and no much in ku. Where i live (Northern Canada) majority of satellites are weak (37-39dbW). I am planning on installing a 10...

so I rescued a dish from a guy in next county. on the polar mount declination angle adjustment is not possible because the bolt and the iron plates are welded together. Do i need to cut the weld out or is it supposed to stay like this?

i was doing some research and stumbled upon some LNBs made by Chaparral that change polarity with a servo motor attached to them. Can somebody explain how these work and the benefits of these over regular C band LNBs

I am planning on installing a 8 foot C band in my backyard and would primarily like to watch SES 1 on 101W. The recommended dish size as per satbeams for my location is 7ft. I read on tvrosat that to get get complex encoding scheme like DVB-S2 Fec 5/6 or higher i need atleast 10ft dish. Is this...
