    Montana PBS Programming Gone?

    Are you looking at the right sat? I am watching it now in 125W (Galaxy12) 12104 V 4340 Pretty sure that's what "The List" says as well

    Help TB8PSK Auto?

    The transponder those channels are on are QPSK not 8PSK (So if QPSK is an option use that) The -3/4 Should be the FEC (Forward Error Correction) for that transponder. Frequency: 11734 Polarity: H Symbol Rate: 4400 The Numbers after the channels are the PIDs for the Video/Audio TuffTV -...

    125W Bleeding into 123W (Ku)

    Interesting reading about your Fortec 90cm dish.. Your mounting bracket assembly doesn't look like mine, and I wonder if your instructions were for my style of mounting bracket (see attached photo). When did you get yours? I really have no idea when I got mine now but I think it was sometime...

    semi sucess with minibud

    Yes the better the FEC the more bits it takes up total of the downlink.. FEC has to do with how many bits are used for data redundancy (I.E. they can be corrected when received incorrectly the first time) vs. how many bits are used for the content (video/audio).. More bits for FEC allows for...

    125W Bleeding into 123W (Ku)

    How do I measure the focal length distance? I know moving the LNB in or out didn't seem to make any differences when aiming, but now I am curious.. Fortec Star Satellites Fortec Star's website says "focus length" is 510mm ~= 20.1 inches.. I just very roughly measured from the end of the LNB...

    125W Bleeding into 123W (Ku)

    How badly could it be off? The only transponder I can get from 125W bleeding over with any certainty is 12180 which there seems to be nothing in that range on 123W.. When aimed at 123W I get a signal level of 64 (The noise floor seems to be between 58-60 w/ my current LNB - Course I have no...

    125W Bleeding into 123W (Ku)

    I just recently re-mounted my 90cm Fortec Offset Dish + SG2100 Motor on a fixed pole.. For the last few years it has lived on the side of my not to structurally sound shed attached with a J Pole, and needless to say over time it's moved some. I ended up having to replace all the bolts that came...

    Quality of 94% on History Channel (12060 H) in North Carolina w/ 90cm dish. Pretty sure it was much lower before..

    Found a Sonicview 8000 for $25.00 at a Salvation Army store earlier today.

    A few weeks back I tried putting the factory firmware that is on the sonicview website on my HD8000 and it kept popping up error messages like you are saying "Must Upgrade Software" or something similar.. I ended up eventually finding a random hacked firmware on it from a year or two ago and the...
