Thanks to everyone for all the help! 87W 91W and 97W on one dish! It's awesome!

So far working great. Gonna add 87W today. DiSEqC switch shipment delayed till Monday :(.

Will this be okay? Currently getting 91W on the center lnb with 74 percent quality on most transponders, 97W on right lnb 43-60 percent on most transponders. Getting 3rd lnb and diseqc switch tomorrow. Anything else I need to keep in mind or am I set?

You guys have said exactly what I thought too. Thanks! And yes, I did mean quality, apologies. I may try to mount it differently, but would anyone here know the best way to build my own bracket? What do I need to buy, and how should I put it together? Thank you very much.

Got a multi-LNB bracket online, but since installing, I've been having signal trouble. I have my dish aimed at 97W and am used to 60-65 percent signal strength on my receiver; after adding this bracket (and realigning the dish), the best I have been able to get is 43 percent. What can/should I...

This is largely temp. Plan is to perhaps eventually throw it on a ground pole, may be adding a motor to the setup as I already find the switching between the 2 satellites I like, G17 and SES3 tedious.

Thanks user spongella for the mount idea. It works great. Aimed at 97W right now and working perfect :)

Yep, I can see them just fine. And well, I had the LNB skew in the literal opposite direction last time, also had to move the dish about 15 degrees west of where I had it pointed last time. The moment when I received signal, great.

Well, moved it over to 103W and watching NHK, this is really cool. Was getting a little discouraged, but wow, this is amazing.

158 TV 55 Radio, does that sound about right?

I hit G19, thank you all so so much!!!!

Didn't get my chance today. Tomorrow for sure. Would rather be setting this up than being busy, but life shall be life.

Yep, will do it here in just a few hours. College finals exhausted me yesterday and I'm currently setting up a new router for my neighbor. Thank you guys so much for the support.

That also may be a factor, I had the LNB skewed 13 clockwise.

Using a standard LNB, TV is visible through my window as I install, and I'm in south Mississippi, Biloxi. Receiver LNB set to 10750. Was using that exact transponder to test. To check elevation, used the markings on the dish, then verified with my phones accelerometer and the dishpointer app. 60...

Should I PM those?

I'm trying to pull in Galaxy 19, my mount is level according to a bubble level, and I used the dishpointer app to align my dish to G19; however, I cannot pull in any signal. Could my LNB be mounted wrong? What should I do? Thanks a ton. Also, apologies for the trash in the first shot, didn't...

Got all of my equipment. 33 inches is larger than I thought XD. Anyways, time to go set things up. Quite excited.

Ah, okay. I was aware of NHK on 103, but not the other stuff. NHK is something I'd really like to try and watch via FTA. Also, darn receiver didn't show today. Is a shame waiting for the equipment.

Thank you all for the help. I'm quite excited. My receiver is coming today, and my coax and other LNB come Monday, and my dish should be here Tuesday, just before the 4th. What's on 103 if that's okay to ask? Also, regarding mounts, I've talked with my father, and well, there are an...

Hate to take this thread any further off topic, but what would the difference be between the standard LNB that came with the listing and the universal LNB that I bought? Thanks a ton for the help, everyone.

Just a kit marketed as a 33 inch dish on ebay. From the looks of it, it seems I overpaid a good chunk. The listing was titled "33" KU BAND SATELLITE DISH ANTENNA + FTA FREE TO AIR LNB CHINESE PERSIAN 97 118", also bought an LNB titled "Avenger KSC321S-2 Single Universal Linear Ku LNB". After I...

Also, the dish I've bought online specified "SUPPORT: TUBE AND TWO SUPPORTING FEET FOR BETTER STABILITY". What would this entail?

I have a dish on the way. I picked up one online. I have pallets on the property. Where exactly can I buy the proper equipment to mount my dish on the pallet?

I've been following FTA hobbyists for years, and I've decided to get into it myself. I've bought a used GTMedia receiver (not the best, I know, but it was cheap used), a 33 inch dish, a universal LNB, and a satellite finder. I don't plan to have the system setup full time as of yet. But I have...
