Thanks, Thanks Lak7,

Is there way to identify the LNB type (linear/circular) by just looking at the information from Lyngsat? What type of lnb is for 103W? Thanks,

Thanks Thanks Chapelrun. I like your approaches. I have a 7" portable DVD player with A/V input jack and it's great for this type of application.

Why you can't get signal from 101W, if you use the DTV lnb (linear) on a 36" dish as Chapelrun mentioned? We can't do anything with those scrambled signal but we can see the signal and quality level.

Thanks Keith. My magnetic azimuth is 220.7 and I already tried it.

Iceberg, my elevation is 40.6, true azimuth is 210 & lnb skew is 22.9.

Thanks Lak7.

Thanks Anole,

I just interpreted from your picture and marked some notations :). L stands for low, H is for high and S stands for sharing between H & L. I have not seen a diplexer but they should have some kind of labeling to tell user which one is high and which one is low.

No. I just have a basic setup, no diplexers and no switches between LNB and receiver.

I know the cable is good, but I will try on a diff one. If the cable is bad, the signal should be very unstable. In my case it shows solid 40 percent.

Thanks Lak7. I thought the same way but just want to make sure diplexer can support signal flows either direction. So the bottom line is the L goes to L and H goes to H. Do you have any recommendation on the diplex brand and estimate cost? Sat LNB (H)...

Thanks Voomvoom, I have no switch (just directly connect from LNB to receiver using quad-shieled RG6). I believe Mercury II does not have an option to turn the port off. I spent 4 hrs to twist and turn the dish yesterday but whatever I did the signal was only 40 and quality was zero.

I got a standard Ku LNBF DG780 from Digiwave (RF=11.70-12.20Ghz; IF=950-1450Mhz; LO=10.750Ghz). Following is my receiver setup: Sat= Glaxy25 Ku 97W LNB Type= LNB 10750 Positioner= Off Transponder= 11966/H/22000 0/22khz=Off Switch= None Input= None Port=1

Would some one please explain how to use/configue diplexer to share the same RG6 cable for satellite and cable TV signal? Thanks,

I'm in Northern VA and can't find 97W even following exactly the Elev, Azimuth, and skew degrees that show from the dispointer software. My set up is a 36" Digiwave dish, Digiwave Linear LBN (with NF=0.5) and Mercury II. Signal=40 and quality=0 :mad:. I think the lnb is bad. Any suggestion...

Hey Anole! Your picture reminds my office almost 18 years ago.

I know what you meant. I have 2 desktops and 2 laptops and still shopping for a 3rd one. Take it easy!

I thought HAM Radio only beefs up his rig to get better performance and not go after other brand names with almost the same capacity. Thanks,

What is the main reason for you guys to own multiple FTA receivers from different brand names? Take it easy! Netdvn

Got an old computer w/ serial port and a DB9 to DB9 cable (will run a quick pinout check if it is a null-modem cable). Now I'm searching for a female-female adaptor. I don't know what was Fortec engineer thinking when he designed a male DB9 port on that box - I guess they would make a few more...

Oh boys! Now I have to make a 9-pin serial cable and find an old computer with a serial port.

Got the dish yesterday afternoon, temporary attached it to the basketball hoop this morning to check out for the first time and received the NASA channel about 15 min ago. WOW!

Just ordered a Fortec Mercury II receiver (Special Holiday price) from Sat AV.

Will M-2 receiver work with Super dish from DN? Thanks,
