    FTA Newbie

    I have scrounged many dishes just by asking for them. Only had 3 people who wanted to be paid a little something for them, so I just tell them that I don't charge to remove them and most people are glad they don't have to mow around them any more. Have 5 1.2M Primestar dishes and a bunch of buds...

    New meter..........

    You guys are the greatest, it works fine now; I entered 274.7 E as my longitude and it's coming out right now. Can't thank you enough. SS

    New meter..........

    Just bought a new SATLINK WS-6933 meter, and it works well except for 1 thing. It doesn't calculate the look angle correctly. For 103W in my location [85.3W 44.6N] it gives an azimuth of -155.6 when it should be +205, which of course is thousands of miles off. The elevation and skew are...

    Need some meter help.......

    Is anyone familiar with this meter?: SATlink 3.5" DVB-S FTA Data WS-6906 I presently have a First Strike FS1 meter and I'm somewhat sheepish to admit I don't know how to get the best use out of it. Of course it's easy to just use the S and Q bars, which is what I have done the years I've owned...

    Retro TV .

    I looked at Lyngsat for 30W a few days ago and saw Retro TV East listed at 11721 V 30000 pid 51, 52 for English there, but I don't know if the page I saw was up to date or not, and I haven't been on 30W for several years and don't even know if that bird is still operational or not. If someone...

    Action E & W; Luken mux on 83W

    Thanks, but no joy. Still a Tuff TV affiliate and Titan lists the Tuff TV lineup.

    Action E & W; Luken mux on 83W

    Haven't been able to find a thing; was hoping someone smarter and luckier than myself had this figured out already. http://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/the-action-channel-to-replace-tuff-tv-at-luken-communications.361928/ Searched and found this thread but clicking the link to "The Action...

    Action E & W; Luken mux on 83W

    Has anyone been able to get a Titan TV listing for Action E and Action W, part of the Luken mux found on 83W? If you have, what channel identifier did you use? Drawing a blank searching "Action" or "The Action Channel". Thank you. Sky

    Looking for a reliable channel editor....

    I have a Linkbox 8000HD Local receiver and am looking for a channel editor. I found an Ali channel editor but it won't let me enter PIDs and doesn't download reliably; that is, what is on it isn't always what ends up on the receiver. Also, when I edit a channel and click out of it, I get a...

    99 west satellite.....?

    If we're talking about the MY Network on 99W, that TP is almost never hot on weekends.

    99 west satellite.....?

    I had recovered the VI mux, and went out last night to see if I could get "MY Network TV", and I did, but ended up I lost the VI channels again by tuning to MY. I think I'll just swing a bigger dish over that way and be done with it, the little 6' is just not enough dish to capture everything...

    99 west satellite.....?

    Thanks guys; big help. When I lost the channels, I foolishly deleted the channel info and rescanned and of course couldn't get them back, but weather permitting, i'll repoint the dish or swing a bigger dish to that bird.

    99 west satellite.....?

    Thank you, I think that's it, I hope I can get it back. Very strange channel, only hot at intermittent times of the day, but was always hot at 8-10 PM [EST] primetime. Wouldn't happen to have the pids for those 2 would you? Many thanks!

    99 west satellite.....?

    Typo; should have said C band instead of B band. Just rescanned and recovered most of the VI mux except maybe THE CW. Anyone know if "MY NETWORK TV" is still on that bird? If it is, could you please supply me with the freq, pol, and SR? Thanks! SS

    99 west satellite.....?

    I'm using a 6' mesh B band dish and can no longer rx MY Network TV or Virgin Islands Mux. Maybe the dish needs repointed, or maybe they got switched to another bird or TP. Does anyone still get these, and if so, What freq, polarity and SR? I can't even find a listing for MY Network on any of the...

    My Network TV gone?

    Thanks guys. Well it's hot this AM, they just had Family Guy, but for some reason Burn Notice wasn't up last night. Mrs. Scanner was watching Bones there earlier. Was seeing KWHS on that same bird OK. I'm seeing KYNM OK too. I'm afraid you might be right about scrambling their primetime...

    My Network TV gone?

    Can't find My Network TV where it usually is on 99.0W 4080 H 27780. Just me? Did they move? Are there any My Network TV affiliates in all those RTV affiliates on 87.0W? Missing my usual Wednesday night viewing of Burn Notice. SS

    Dee, I haven't been in the shack in months and just learned of your loss. I wish I had brilliant words to comfort you, but I don't; I'm at a complete loss as to what to say beyond that we are grieving with you. Many have found comfort in the words spoken about Jesus upon learning of the death...

    Do You Use Any Diseqc 1.1 Switches? You Should Be.

    You're right Jim, I've been on the same Digiwave 8X1 for just short of 3 years without issue. Replaced all my Chieta switches when I finally discovered they're afraid of the cold [at least mine were]. SS ><>
