    Nfusion nova

    Bought one a few weeks ago also for $20, nothing like my coolsats for FTA no blind search, found it a little easier to use after putting factory files on it but still was sad and slow (my opinion) even for $20 i wish i had of left it where it was.

    82/91/101 on one 30-inch dish. How??

    You'll still have to rig something up, where your 30" dish don't skew, so you'll have to attach that bracket on a angle to dish arm some how, also you need to buy proper bracket for right dish ie: bracket for 24" won't be any good for a 1.2 meter because of spacing mentioned above. But if you...

    82/91/101 on one 30-inch dish. How??

    A bit different spacing for lnbs on a 24" and 30" ,24" lnbs and sats being closer while the 30" they will be a little wider apart. could you take off one of them plastic sockets (lnb holder) on the above holder and screw it to the top hole on your stair bracket to see if it close.

    82/91/101 on one 30-inch dish. How??

    Sorry i can't recommend one maybe someone else will, i make my own with wood/metal/tie straps/tape/etc, to me the one you have above the highest bracket (lnb spot) needs to be a little higher and just a little out more ( I'm assuming that the 2 closest are 82 and 91) maybe you can fab something...

    *choice lnb

    101(sat B 22khz on) should be on the left side and 97 (sat A 22khz off) right side when behind dish, if you wanted 97 & 93 then 97 would be (sat B 22khz on) the left side and 93 (sat A 22khz off) right lnb. some skews and elevation settings i found to work or get me very close with starchoice...

    82/91/101 on one 30-inch dish. How??

    If your dish skews the lnbs will be inline, if no skew on dish the lnb's will be in a staircase like the above bracket. Also if you align 101 and then align your circular sats it may be easier to find them.

    How many LNBs can you fit on a dish?

    I found on my 1.2m i could get 111W linear to 82W circular, and i could get 1 degree spacing for 111W linear and 110 circular by strapping (tie straps and tape):) lnbs together side by side, and pointing in a little, found that after i had 4 on there i had to put support under the arm, from the...

    Question for SatAV re Fortec Star Lifetime NA

    Had a similar problem with mine and resetting back to factory resolved my problem, i also thought it was remote or sensor, as it was working one sec and next nothing, then would work a minute and so on. maybe worth a try.

    is 83w accessable in st johns nfld in reality?

    Use lnb b with 22khz on you'll get the most gain from the starchoice dish and not lnb a when aligning. i tried for 6 months to hit it on starchoice 75E and 1.2m no luck, also found 1.2m picks up a lot more tp's and don't lose signal as much when raining or snowing also the list and stuff posted...
