    Want to combine signal from two 18" dishs for more signal?

    I love this idea, but something not mentioned is how you would power the LNBFs. Double signal in means double power going out of receiver to power the equipment. That would have to be coordinated or boosted as well... hmmmmm....

    Nasa & Angel @ Echo7

    I decided to use my Invacom Quad and it worked great, but when I try the dedicated 119W LNBF it would not work. So I probably have a problem with: diseqc port, cable, or LNBF - I'm sure its the LNBF and I have a few spares. Thanks to all.

    Nasa & Angel @ Echo7

    Thanks for all the suggestions, been nothing but rain for days, had a short break over the weekend, but no end in site. Hopefully I can get to troubleshooting this soon.

    Nasa & Angel @ Echo7

    Thanks, I'll give that a shot after I replace my LNBF. "The List" might need a little updating, at least the polarity for Angel if they want to be accurate for that transponder. I appreciate the quick feedback.

    Nasa & Angel @ Echo7

    Well, nuts.... Maybe my LNBF is bad. Could you please verify the freq/sr/polarity/etc for me that is working for you?

    Nasa & Angel @ Echo7

    Nasa & Angel @ Echo7? Is Nasa and Angel not available on Echo7 (119) anymore? I tried pulling it in on my Pansat and Twinhan with no luck yesterday. I haven't tried looking at it in a while and I re-did all my stuff and would like to start watching it again. From "The List": I used 12372...

    actuator motor and ethernet cable

    I was actually thinking of doing the same thing with 2 CAT5e cables. 1 Cable, 4 wires to the + motor power, 4 wires to the - motor power. 1 Cable, 2 wires for each of the signal lines, giving me 4 wires as a spare. I believe that gives me enough awg to run the connection, and as you said not...

    I will definitely keep everyone informed. I just moved some months ago and had to transport all my Ku gear to a new house (new to me) - that was interesting. This place is outside of the city so lots of room for dishes :) I anticipated moving when I built my "Ku dish rack" so I could...

    Mis-understood

    Some of the guys at work are constantly poking fun at this great FTA hobby of ours. It is always in good humor and today they ran across something that really made me laugh. They are always joking that people that do what I do (FTA stuff) are the same people that wear those tinfoil hats...well...

    Contest - TWO Free GEOSATpro CK1 LNBFs, Clamps and US / Canadian Shipping

    How you will test or use this LNBF if you win? I have had a 6' BUD sitting on the ground since I have moved. I'm currently having a mount made so I can turn this up. The old LNBF looks questionable and I would LOVE to have this one on my BUD instead. Here's hoping I win!

    Low Signal Strength on 123°W

    Same problems here in Missouri, I can receive it OK, but signal is much weaker than it was months ago. I do have a smaller Primestar & DirecWay dish and the signal on that transponder is weaker than it was on the previous bird.

    HEY JASONTHEROCK I have the same exact model that I found at a flea market. It seems to work but I don't have the remote control which has most of the functions on it. I was going to use it to move my dish as turbosat suggested but I'm at a loss. Is there anyway you can post a good picture...

    Any signal issues at 123W

    Well, I was able to pull all the transponders in again after a minor re-alignment. I forgot just how touchy that bird is, especially now! I too, am still seeing fluctuations regularly (and its the same transponders everyone is reporting as well) but at least I can keep a transponder lock now...
