OK, I finally got some time to mess with it. I first moved it back and forth. I got nothing. So then I went up and down. I got nothing. Then I rotated the LNBF. I got nothing. I moved the LNBF in and out. I got nothing. So now I have everything back where it was and am in the same...

Thanks. I'll lean on it a bit tomorrow and see if it makes a difference. I am not getting any of the Adventist channels, AJE or Russia Today but when I did a scan I got over 100.

I had not watched my FTA for a while and when I turned it on this evening I couldn't get Hope, 3ABN or Al Jazeera English although I get TBN and several other channels very good. Have some channels moved or are those signals weaker?

AJE is coming in now. It is kind of a cloudy day, is AJE a weaker signal than Press TV?

I am not getting AJE on 97º now. I am getting Press TV but not AJE.

Well, I switched the receivers and now both are working.

The story is told of a semi-truck that got stuck trying to pass under a low overpass. The police and emergency crews were all working feverishly to try to unwedge it when a little boy came by and asked, why don't you let the air out of the tires? Sometimes we don't think of the obvious until...

The reception from the receiver in my den keeps breaking up but the one in the living room is fine. I replaced the co-ax from the wall to the receiver and it worked good for about a week but is doing the same thing again. I am wondering if I should replace the co-ax from the switch to the wall.

What would be the best receiver for picking up weak signals, like on cloudy days?

Thanks for the help. Does anyone know which polarity the Adventist channels are on?

I have a couple of old Buzz receivers I bought used. I really need to buy new receivers but even when I do I will probably just move these into another room since I can have 4 receivers with my set-up. I did a "Scan SAT" and "Scan all" on G19 trying to find the new location for Hope and 3ABN...

Thanks, my fortec reciever died so I have been down to one reciever and have to fight with the kids. They are always watching Smile of A Child. They could watch KTV on DISH in the other room but the prefer SOAC. My satellite tech is coming next week with a new reciever so I was just checking...

I am not picking up a few channels. Just want to make sure they are still there. I am not picking up MHZ Worldview, GCN, KUIL and Al Jazerra English. Are some of these gone or do I just need to adjust my dishes?

That is me in the picture. The latitude setting was set by the first installer that gave up on it. the second installer just fine tuned it but we never got the entire arc. I think we got from 88 to 112 or something like that. I may mess with it again some day but not in the near future. I...

A long time in coming but here are pics of my set-up. I am not using the motor but it still serves a purpose as the pole is too close to the brick column for a dish with out it. I have also switched the LNBFs that I am using. But this is a general idea of what I have.

If I wanted to use one of my existing DISH receivers as an FTA receiver could I do that? The number on the front of it is 311.

First, thanks for the help. I appreciate getting feedback here. Where is the donation box anyway? Second, I never got it any better. I was able to get AMC4 on my second dish too but couldn't get G25 any better. I think experience is the big thing. The more times one messes with these things...

What am I getting? I got Iran TV and a number of other Arabic channels. I loved it down to thesame as the ANC4 dish and am sweeping. I just nudge it and do a scan because I don't know how to use that receiver to locate any bird. It just says level 55% and sometimes goes up to 57% and...

I am trying to position one of my dishes to AMC4 and the other to Galaxy25. AMC4 was not too hard to find. I got that without a problem. Galaxy 25 is proving to be much more difficult. I have an angle meter and and started out by having the angle on the G25 dish exactly the same as the...

OK, I messed things up. When I pushed the "sat" button on my remote I had a number of satellites listed that I didn't use. In the process of trying of trying to get them out of the list I erased everything back to the factory settings, which is AMC4. I have AMC4 tuned in. In fact I have...

Well I got my new dual output .3 dB LNBF today. Here is the difference. .5 dB Hope Level 79% Quality 72% 3ABN level 78% Quality 72% Supreme Master TV Level 77% Quality 39% CCTV 9 Level 82% Quality 48% .3 dB Hope Level 80% Quality 72% 3ABN Level 79% Quality 74% Supreme Master TV Level 82%...

I think it is easier to get the signal with a 39" dish. Corpus Christi is 150 miles north of where I am. I am 10 miles north of Nuevo Progreso, Mexico or "Las Flores" as the locals call it.

According to Wikipedia, "Galaxy 25 has a projected life of 12 years, is scheduled to be replaced in the third quarter of 2008 by Galaxy 19" Apparently Galaxy 19 is going to have a stronger signal. "The clients for Galaxy 19 are expected to include the current clients for Galaxy 25. Expanded...

I emailed them and sent them a monthly pledge letting them know I am watching them on Ku band.

I had a problem with my laptop so I didn't get those pictures downloaded. I'll try that later tonight. I switched my dual LNBF with the single LNBF that came with the dish originally. It is 0.4dB. That made a big difference. I have all the Christian channels on Galaxy25 except Cornerstone...
