    Pretty nifty, my fixed dish is on 91 for UND hockey feeds. If something is Downlink: 12345.000 V ABC Data Rate: 4.32 Mbsp is that 12345 V 4320 ?

    Eek! I think I got bumped to another bird (which one?)

    :D Back to my usual quality! Feed is up and crystal clear :D So, what was wrong? You're going to laugh! My LNB was skewed about 20 degrees. :rolleyes: When I went out to nudge it I noticed right away this time. The coax hangs down to the ground; I'm betting the dog hit it running around the...

    Eek! I think I got bumped to another bird (which one?)

    i read that, went over to tv... nothing. then all of a sudden a very crappy (unwatchable) feed is up! Mrs paulm is around, so time for the old move and yell method

    Eek! I think I got bumped to another bird (which one?)

    Do you get the 11740 data tp? I get nothing and that worries me. I'm going to keep reloading this thread and waiting for the feed to come up. Please post when you see it, half an hour till gametime (well, half an hour till sweeny anyway ;) ) oops, no sweeny. produced by Alaska.

    Eek! I think I got bumped to another bird (which one?)

    Power cycle did nothing. We've had snow/rain mix all evening, so that may have something to do with it. I just checked and I don't have any accumulation on the dish, but maybe I'm getting some fade. Does it seem really weird to anyone else that some of us see stuff others don't? Oh well, I'll...

    Eek! I think I got bumped to another bird (which one?)

    putney, Thanks for checking for me! 11740 is a data TP so no channels, but today I'm not getting anything. It's very close to my true south as well; I'm only an hour and a half drive south-south-east of Iceberg in Minneapolis/St.Paul (Rochester, MN)

    Eek! I think I got bumped to another bird (which one?)

    Interesting... the football game is at 57% for me. The data TP at 11740 V 30000 had registered at around 50 in the past, and 12051 V 13354 in the 30s. - the FSSN (for my hockey game tonight) had been coming in at about 50 as well, so I'm a bit concerned that I may just be a smidge off from...

    Eek! I think I got bumped to another bird (which one?)

    I am!? This is excellent news. But tell me, are you getting 12051 v 13354 and / or 11740 v 30000 on 91W, because I'm not, and they had previous been coming in very strong (hence my concern that I've moved). If you are, this could mean that this HS football game is an abnormally strong uplink...

    Eek! I think I got bumped to another bird (which one?)

    I still haven't gotten around to planting a pole (weather, sheesh) and am relying on my not so sturdy portable pole on a base. I was checking to see if I'm still aimed right at 91W for the UND hockey game tonight, and it appears that I no longer am! The "Strong Transponder" from thelist 12051 v...

    Feed is up! Only 35 quality on my captiveworks 600, but it's not artifacting or dropping out

    I'm ready and aimed! (Well enough, I hope) 30 was the highest quality I could get on 12051 V 13354, the "strong transponder" in thelist. 50 on the data transponder at 11740 V 30000 that Iceberg posted earlier in this thread. Have the transponder setup screen on the FSSN transponder waiting for...

    I've made a huge mistake (missing part, need to buy a whole new dish?)

    Aha! My wife found the parts. I had smartly put the ones I needed in a different bag than the parts I didn't need. The bag was at the bottom of a box of kitchen stuff she was putting away. Phew, hockey tonight!

    I've made a huge mistake (missing part, need to buy a whole new dish?)

    Iceberg, you're exactly right. I'll be able to line up the the updown/leftright no problem, it's just the distance between the dish and the arm that I don't know for sure. Let's say I do hack something together (wood or something) and I'm off in my guess. How much of a little bit would my signal...

    I've made a huge mistake (missing part, need to buy a whole new dish?)

    So I'm correct in my assumption that if the arm isn't lined up like it would be with the bracket that the lnb will be in the wrong spot and it won't work? If so, trying to fabricate something sounds like more than fifty bucks worth of frustration

    I've made a huge mistake (missing part, need to buy a whole new dish?)

    it's both. Sadoun has the dish for fifty bucks, so this wouldnt be the most costly mistake I've ever made but still. ARGHKAsdgkhasdjgjkasdla'sdgbhs ab jgh kl!

    I've made a huge mistake (missing part, need to buy a whole new dish?)

    We moved from Idaho to Minnesota, and I disassembled the dish so it would fit in the moving cube. I also had extra parts that I never used (the roof/wall mount stuff... I planted a pole) that came along. When we moved again from our temporary apartment to the house we just bought I looked at...

    FSSN and FOX Sports

    I think it's great that our programs are getting national attention! If they switch over to HD next year (one can hope, right :) ) I'll probably switch over to digital cable and the sports package for FCS, but for now I'm sticking with FTA.

    Nice! Too bad no women's hockey yet. Maybe next year with the Lamoureux sisters.

    Seeing as how football is like, now, would be nice to get a schedule. I've checked fightingsioux.com and wdaz's website and haven't seen any info. Have you heard anything about WDAZ renewing the contract?

    Strong transponder on 91W?

    Strong transponder on 91W?

    Lak7, thank you. 11740 V 30000 works for me. Only getting 56% quality on my captiveworks 600s, but that might just be that fine adjustments are hard with me in the backyard on the phone with my wife in the livingroom :) So... what's the story with 12050 V 13354? No longer a strong transponder?

    Strong transponder on 91W?

    I moved my fixed dish for a hockey game last weekend, and now I'm trying to put it back on 91W and not having too much luck. I marked the elevation and azimuth with a sharpie, so i'm pretty sure i'm back pretty close to where I should be. However, I'm not seeing anything on 12050 V 13354, the...
