    Heavy Duty C-Band Satellite Actuator

    I am looking for a new satellite actuator for my 10' dish and I was wondering if this actuator would be worth purchasing? It's a Moteck SuperPowerJack 24" QARL-3624+ Heavy Duty C-Band Satellite Actuator. Thanks!

    Thanks for the logical explanation. Wasn't sure what VCM and CCM stood for.

    125 w c band

    So the cheaper receivers don't have ACS/VCS?

    125 w c band

    Sure! The receiver is a GT Media Freesat V7S and the LNBF is a C1W-PLL lite Wideband 3.4 - 4.2GHz from Brian.The dish is a 10 ft. Dave

    125 w c band

    I have been trying to get Music Choice on 125 west on c band but it won't scan in and it won't let me add it manually. Is there something I am not doing?When I try to add tp 4140 V 30000 it says it already exists but I don't see it in the list.What gives?

    10 ft dish working again after 30 years

    I tried all that.If I change the LO frequency to 5150 then I loose the signal and can't perform a scan.

    10 ft dish working again after 30 years

    I checked everything on the STB and even changed the freq from 10750 to 5150 and I lost the signal.Is there something else I can change or check in the settings?

    10 ft dish working again after 30 years

    I bought one of your C1 PLL LNBF's and it works so well you can get sats that aren't even there. I was looking for SES 1 at 101.0°W on the 10 ft dish tonight and all I could get was SES 1 on KU band. Not sure what I did to get that but I sure would like to know.

    Hi st1. I didn't know Canada made satellite dishes.It looks good and sturdy and the surface is still nice and smooth.Needs a good wash to get 30 years of grime off.I also have an aluminium 10 ft dish that I am setting up now that I can use for KU if I want but I haven't really seen much on KU...

    10 ft fiberglass dish for free

    Wish I could take it in one piece but it is just too wide and I only have a 4 ft wide trailer. Might try to get it in two pieces if I can.

    10 ft fiberglass dish for free

    The owner has two receivers that still work and that he said I could have so I am hoping to control the dish and the servo with one of the receivers and the rest with a new box.If not I will just switch it out for something newer.

    10 ft fiberglass dish for free

    The gentleman that owns it said it is in 4 sections so it might not be that bad as long as the bolts will twist off.Marker is definitely a must take. I worry about the bolts on the post not loosening enough to get it off. A can of rust off might help too!
