There are 2 Polish scrambled channels on 97W TP21...TV Polonia and Tele5 Both encrypted, but I am getting a decent signal. Anybody knows who is selling these channels, where can I buy it, how much, etc..... Thanks!

sounds like it would not worth the effort [ lots of work, dish would get heavier (extra plate)] Thanks for all the replies!

From the replies, I think I did not described the situation clearly: I am planning to take of the rotating mechanism from an unused Bell dish It has 2 parts: Part 1 is attached to the back of the dish with 4 bolts, Part2 is which goes to the pole.....and these two part a held together with 2...

The dish I called round is a 21" wide, and 22" tall, has a Y shaped dual LNB holder and it has a canadian satellite provider logo printed on it. I am thinking to take of the rotating mechanism and use it on a 30" qsat dish, which is already in use for fta, works fine for 30,72,89,97,101 My...

I have a small dish (around 22") which rotates. Thinking of removing rotating parts and attach it to a larger (30") dish to make dish skewable. I would like to know whether it is worth the effort, and I will end up with some gains compared to just skew the LNB on a same dish? Thanks for all...

did a quick test run on a 18" oval starchoice plastic dish in a light drizzle got 101w History with 57%, 97w presstv 48%, 95w cctv-e 68% these readings are similar to any other "no name" linear lnbs I have this lnb is definately a keeper, time to put it to "non-evil" use thanks for all the replies

circular lnb to linear convert removed white front plastic cap (with a help of heat gun) inside is a white piece of plastic , placed in a 45 degree angle on both end , a wide "V" shaped cut out, almost as wide as the plastic removed plastic piece behind at 3 o'clock there is a round...

I got this rarely seen lnb, round shape, ku band circular single lnb, lo=10.750 Ghz, Input=11.70-12.75 Ghz, NF=0.5 dB seems like the frequency (11.70-) is fine for fta, however the circular polarization is a problem thinking of taking off the front cap and removing inside the plates to make...

89w ABC channels did some investigation---switch OK, cables OK---adjusted dish---up 2 mm, and rotated 2mm --- got 89w channels back :) looks like the wind+dish weight managed to pull out slightly (2mm) one of the top plastic inserts inside the holes on the wall, which are holding the...

Thanks Iceberg, looks like then I am heading out to the garage roof with a sat receiver and a 7" dvd player to troubleshoot the problem: dish moved ? bad coax connections ? bad 22 khz switch ? bad diseqc switch ? So many things could have gone wrong ! Thanks again !

It is 27 F/ -2 C the temperature here, and I really don't want to go out there, unless I have to . However, if something wrong with my setup, why I still got signal on one TP ?

I have a dish pointed to Galaxy 28 Ku @89w and used to get 3 ABC channels on it, at TP 11954 V 19532 ....News1 Live, Absat Ch2+ABC News Now Now I am no longer getting any signal on that TP. First I thought maybe my dish moved, bad connection,bad switch, etc...but then i did a Blind Scan and...

NBC-MUX @72 used a 30" dish with a CW600P , and got 53% up here in a frozen north 4xMSNBC channels and 2 religious channels just in time, so I could watch on three channels the president's lame speech about how he is continue to do nothing about the oil spill in the gulf :sob: looks like...

NBC-MUX sounds good, because as long as they stay on (transmit) with "something", scanning channels won't be an issue lyngsat shows12,052 V 6890 , the LIST shows 12,049 6890--I guess I have to try both Thanks for info

NBC-MUX on 72 W 4 channels of NBC-MUX on 72w? can someone tell me what are those: --wildfeeds ?(up/down) --permanent station ID + some programs? what's on: news, reports, etc...? do I need anything beside an regular FTA receiver+30" dish+ linear LNb to receive it with video and...

Thanks for all the advise, now I am considering a safer approach. I am going to place a thin piece of plastic in front of the LNB and see if is there any signal reduction and if it is how much. Then I will paint this extra plastic piece with a white acrylic-latex and see what happens ?

I have an LNB which has its front white protective plastic cap badly discolored. Since the dish is mounted low, near the house, and a very visible location, this LNB is not a pretty sight. Thinking of spraying this plastic cap with some white outdoor paint, maybe an acrylic-latex or an enamel...

SC dish and LNB thanks for the info although the dish is only 18x32, in the past I was able to get channels from 101 (very strong) 80% channels from 97 w and channels from 30w, both around 50 % on CW 600P

Starchoice LNB Thanks Iceberg for the info So the double beercan is the oldest one, next is the MSCD-xx and the latest one is the LM-xxx?
