    Picking bird on multi-lnb install

    It's too cold to go up there for at least several days now but in the end, I locked the center to 91W and set a second LNB by hand, looking for signals and finding none. I locked the LNB in place then got off the roof. When I scanned, I found all of those 97W channels but none on 91W hahaha. Too...

    Picking bird on multi-lnb install

    What I'm looking for is RT for sure but my main fix would be the live news channels.

    Picking bird on multi-lnb install

    I have to do some more research or testing. I pointed to 91W, got a good signal, locked it in. Before I quit, I messed with a second LNB but didn't see a signal once so gave up. In the house, I hooked up a receiver, did a blind scan and low and behold, I got tons of channels, so what ever RT is...

    Picking bird on multi-lnb install

    Well I finally got it set to 91W at least. So now I'm just trying to figure out how to set more LNB's.

    Picking bird on multi-lnb install

    Hmm, not receiving the subscription post notices. Anyhow, receivers are KU, not sure which I'll use yet, a rack mount GEOSATpro or a traxis dbs3500. Probably the rack mount. The dish is roof/pole mounted and I've removed the GS2100 motor since it's gone bad. LNB's are standard universal, DMS...

    Picking bird on multi-lnb install

    Hi again folks, HNY to everyone. So, it's time to get on the roof and get rid of my motor as its been acting up. I considered buying a new motor but have a multi-LNB tree setup I purchased last year. I finally gave in and purchased a meter. Now I'm ready to do this but my very first question...

    Prescott, AZ or nearby - Anyone?

    Figured it out and without a meter no less. Basically, the Internet is your friend, plenty of info to piece things together. Used dishpointer to get initial variables. Used a compass to get magnetic South and make 91W my starting point. Used SG2100 manual to find settings for motor elevation...

    Like dishpointer, is there a tool somewhere which would help give me the elevation of the motor and dish combination? PS, that's -112.5 Long.

    Prescott, AZ or nearby - Anyone?

    Since the feeds are all over the place, it means I need to get my motor on there. Darn, it's been a while and it wasn't easy. Can someone give me some leads on where I can find info or how I go about setting up the motor and dish. Based on my address, these are the parameters I've come up with...

    Prescott, AZ or nearby - Anyone?

    I believe Arizona is celebrating it's 100th year as a state so depends on when he was born. Anyhow, sorry, back on thread :)

    Prescott, AZ or nearby - Anyone?

    Which one has the most? I'll only be able to get one without a meter.

    Prescott, AZ or nearby - Anyone?

    I'm dying to get all the live news feeds about the storm but it'll be too late by the time I get this. Which bird/s are most of those on? Maybe I'll at least get the one LNB going for that.

    Prescott is 2hrs North of Phx, but South of Flagstaff.

    Prescott, AZ or nearby - Anyone?

    Are there any other FTA enthusiasts in the 86303 area or nearby? I've contacted one other person via PM so that makes two of us. Perhaps there are others?

    FREE 6' dish!

    The dish/LNB and Motorola receiver are now sitting in a shed at the empty house we have up for sale. If anyone wants it, it's yours to pick up in Hugo.

    FREE 6' dish!

    The dish is a 6 foot fortec which I purchased for 4DTV reception, white in color, nothing wrong with it that I know of. It is mounted on a metal pole so it's an easy dismantle for someone. If interested, contact "projects at grounded dot net" Thanks.

    36" KU dish and a 6' dish need a new home

    I sold the KU stuff at this point so only have the 6' dish. I am asking $150.00 or best offer because it is such a complete system. It comes with, receiver, 6' fortec dish, two C-Band LNB's, a dual C-Band/KU LNB, an 18" motor, controller and 100' of wire for it. Figured the fact that I'm still...

    Well, I appreciate the input but at this point, I'll have to post it on CL :). I need to get rid of this by the 5th or 6th. Thanks.

    36" KU dish and a 6' dish need a new home

    I have no problem putting it on CL, just figured there might be someone here who wants to expand or get into FTA or 4DTV. I'll post it there I guess.

    36" KU dish and a 6' dish need a new home

    Oops, I'll be happy to re-post it. I'd love to find someone who wants this before the 5th otherwise, I'll bring it with me. It's a heck of a complete package. Can you move this or should I re-post?

    36" KU dish and a 6' dish need a new home

    Actually, there's more stuff than I posted. The 6' dish would come with a W5 Mot DSR-410 receiver (still in use til the 5th), a dual KU/Cband (BSC-422?) LNB along with the Cband that's on it now, the 18" motor and it's controller. Pretty much, the whole complete setup including about 100' of...

    Can't find my post

    I posted some things for sale yesterday but wasn't sure if they should be in here or the classified section. Now I can't find my post anywhere. Usually there is an option to see your own posts but I can't seem to find one here.
