    It got dark

    Was a rain out for those in my area. Seems like every time we have a solar or lunar event it rains or cloud cover is so thick you can't view it.

    Is Eutelsat 113 W gone?

    Hope it stays clean for you! About 2 air miles for me on the closest cell tower,but there's nothing pointed toward here. I have one about 10 air miles away on a tall mountain but its signal drops off probably 3 miles from here, yep we're rural LOL

    Is Eutelsat 113 W gone?

    Your location sounds a lot like mine. Cell coverage is spotty if at all here. They have been petitioning to get cell coverage but I have not joined the fight. I could use cellular as a backup here but I know as soon as the tower went up so would 5G. Our location is just below 2 of Va's highest...

    Testing the new Titanium C138 Performance Plus C Band LNBF

    It will likely be next month before I get ready to make the switch anyway. I don't know if we'll ever see a true end to this 5G situation. The carriers are gonna be pulling ticks out of their bags until they have ran it in the ground :) It all revolves around mobile data anyway. I don't think...

    Testing the new Titanium C138 Performance Plus C Band LNBF

    I will get set up for some testing as I have everything on the list. I'm still using the C1PLL C Band LNB as I've never had any troubles till last year. The problem comes and goes within a second most times making it hard to track down. Guess I could blame it on Starlink LOL I'm unsure what was...

    Testing the new Titanium C138 Performance Plus C Band LNBF

    Thanks for the reply. This is not a constant interference just pops up unexpectedly. I haven't been able to be set up with my spectrum analyzer to look at it, strangely I used to have similar problems on 105 KU and COZI but has done fine on 99. I'm not sure on what bands are being used here. I'm...

    Testing the new Titanium C138 Performance Plus C Band LNBF

    I have some interference that pops up in the early morning hours and sometimes mid morning. I haven't found any wiring problems and the fittings are good so I'm beginning to believe 5G problems may have arrived even at my rural location. No towers close by and the one that would be a straight in...

    4156H Dark On 99W.

    I wonder if it's really going dark or they might be having technical problems. Haven't heard of any DTS STA's or anything along those lines.. I'm sure hoping it's temporary

    4156H Dark On 99W.

    Kinda like it is here But if I had internet access where my repeater site is located I can get about 28 channels pointed the same direction. Otherwise a rim shot signal from PBS is it,located in a bowl of sort I'm lucky that works.. It would have been nice to have a little warning so it wasn't...

    4156H Dark On 99W.

    Well, This answers my questions and more. I updated my receiver early Saturday AM and tried to scan in that carrier and got absolutely nothing here too! That dude that contacted the up-linker may have killed it's return unencrypted for us all! And that is the only NBC I have here since the...

    Lightning Strike Yesterday!!! OUCH!

    Sorry about your lightning strike! I had a very similar strike a couple of years back. I was watching metv at the time. This was around 5 am and I went on out to survey the damage got by OK with my stb and v box but lnb's and switches took the hit along with the ignition coils on my generator...

    5G interference solutions

    Thanks for the tips! Lately I've had more interference on more equipment than Ive had ever! I have it on numerous channels in the 155 mhz band on my scanner along with my C Band dish at times and even on my VHF repeater on 152 Mhz.. Don't know yet what it is but it's sure a broad banded...

    5G interference solutions

    I didn't feel I was close enough to any 5 G sites and especially not directly in line with any. I haven't had a chance to snoop around for the source of what's getting into my dishes but it has slacked off some from what was happening. All of a sudden I'm getting all sorts of interference here...

    5G interference solutions

    I am experiencing a random problem with both C Band and KU becoming pixelated at times. I don't have any 5G close to me that I can find. Closest possibility is to the left of my part of the arc. I would think it might be an adjacent carrier firing up with a strong uplink signal. But that doesn't...

    Anybody recommend usa meter budget less than 200

    I will second the FS1 its a great little meter I just wish there was a way to upgrade it where it could have S2 support. It will tune a S2 carrier but the levels jump all over the place. I still use mine weekly just about. I just replaced the LCD screen that I scratched several years ago working...

    Need SatelliteGuys Assistance for C-band Feedhorn Alignment Tool Project

    I need to get myself another laser pointer. Mine gave up on life and won't do anything:( Guess I need a green one but I gotta make sure those fighter planes are not flying over the dish farm as they were yesterday, don't need one of those hung up in my bud:D On a serious note what sort of...

    Buzzing sound from my 10' mesh LNB area

    I can definitely relate to this!! Even though they are cold and maybe can't fly too fast they somehow still manage to end up bopping me! Guess they can tell who's allergic to em and who's not :) Good Luck with your problem
