Hi FTA4PA I am in West Chester, PA and before the rain last week I would get 78%SS at 55%QA on a 70cm dish. This weeks rain made the signal disappear. So sick and tired of the rain fade I got a bigger dish and trying to point it now. Which gives me the most terrible time doing it. It takes...

According to the BVN.NL website the values are Transponder 19k Position 113° west Frequency 12.089 Mhz Polarization Horizontal Symbol Rate 11.719 System DVB-S Which is slightly different from the post above not sure if that makes a difference.

Super Thanks for the feedback. Will get to work.

HI Guys, Just spend some time browsing the forum and I think I have the answer just need a confirmation as I am not very technical with this. I have two dishes one of 76 c and one of 100 cm. I have the Fortec star Mercury II receiver. I want to combine these two dishes and bring both signals...

Main US satellite So is this the main US satellite (over 200 channels) or are there more sat's that are interesting for the US. I am interested as I am considering to add a dish. Looking at Satmex6 at this point.

Hi Jim, so although I have a weak signal you don't think it is because of the tree's? I have these huge pines right in from of me and the signal. At least the tops of the tree's are in front of the signal. And I always thought that was the reason for the weak signal. I spend a lot of time...

Thanks Magic Static, from the start I wasn't getting anymore than 49% on the SES1, I will try and find the Satmex once the weather improves but I am afraid I will have to get a bigger dish. Any suggestions to dealers that you have good experience with are welcome. Many Thanks Fuif

Did anyone looking at BVN already change to Satmex-1 and if so how is the signal coming in. (I am asking as my signal from Ses1 is poor and hoping for a better result via Satmex)

Thanks guys and dolls Must be the tree's that are bugging me. Can't get it any higher than between 51 and 58.

Ever since BVN changed to the SES-1 satellite I have bad reception. 48% to 57% quality and I am interested if other folks have the same experience. I would like this tread to be purely about what others have as a quality percentage and purely in the US North East or Mid Atlantic. Just to...

Hi Guys Good news and bad news, bad news first .. I have to spend buckeronies on a new receiver as the good news is that a friend tested the receiver and concluded that it died. So off to the bank...:-)

Hi Otheo, Thanks for your response, I tried to find another satellite but did not find any. I am suspecting that my receiver is toast. See the previous posts. More to come..

Hi Turbosat, could not get that one, but the guy (wsidigital) suggested the Omegasat DSB5700. As I am not sure about both the LNB nor the receiver that I use at this point, so I started with a new LNB (also more economical if it turns out to be a faulty LNB ;)) and will take it from there. Thanks

HI Turbosat, You know.. with my actual set up I feel like I am fishing without knowing if there is a hook at the end of the wire. I am in the dark towards the fact if the equipment is correct, if the config gets regoqnized, etc. So with equipment that actually helps me to know that all is well I...

Tried programming the TP's manually buy the moment you take the power away it looses everything and I have to start over. I will try some more today, as it will keep the settings as long as it has power, but I am close to scrapping this thing. Thanks for all your help.

The Dish itself does not have a brand name or something its 84 x 77 cm. I believe its off-set as it does not look 30 degrees when you put it in 30 degrees. Almost looks like its 5 to 10 degrees up. The LNB has a label this is what it says. DMS DVB321-SB LO: 10.750 GHz NF: 0.6 dB S/N: 3B20 00581...

Ok nothing works! not even with placing the Dish in several locations. So I am done ..well done so to say. I think I should start with buying a new LNB, if that doesn't work a new receiver but hopefully that's won't be necessary. I got the equipment from Eyeinthesky.net but they do not pick...

I bet your right and already put up a pole. Clear line of sight, just to hot there now and can't see the screen. So beer and chips for now. Let you know how it goes. THANKS

Hi Turbosat, Thanks for your reply. I beginning to wonder if the trees are the issue. Would the signal go through the trees. They are White Pines. When looking at the same angle as the dish the signal comes in at about the 3/4 of the total tree height. Dish Pointer says the tree is about...

Tried to point it again: Plumbed the dish holder, put it on 36.9, pointed it and it is spot-on. The sat-finder is beeping. I move it away it stopped beeping. I point it back it begins beeping again. So I got to be looking at something. Transponder edit issue: The thing I...

Thanks guys, Good to hear I am not totally lost. Thanks again and let you know how it works out. Regards, Fuif.

Hi Iceberg My better half just sent me a picture of the television screen and here are the numbers: LBN Type: Normal KU LBN Low frequency: 10750 Mhz Transponder: 21 (12020) 22k: Off 12V: Off DisEqC: Off LBN Power: 13/18 The Transponder 21 comes from the Lynsat website and BVN Website...

Hi Iceberg, Thanks for your reply!! I am not sure if I am looking at AMC4 and I also am not sure how I would find out which satellite I am getting the signal from. I googled the direction and set the antenna. After that I changed the angle and, my god the thing started bieping immediately. So...

Hi I had to re-point my dish but delayed it for 2 years (I know ..don't ask time just fly's). The BVN from Holland is on the AMC4 and I hoped it was easy. So mounted the dish to the house, google the direction and together with my sat-finder and my Traxis DBS2500. I had the signal in 2...
