    Frequencia/Latina

    Odd, they are not on dish or direct, in fact lyngsat shows them only on 55 so no real need to encrypt that i can see...most folks in this world do not have a BUD. I have one of those hysterical peruvians too. She hails from Lima.

    thank you, i had done a blind scan, but somehow it was missed, i have it now, 1 of the 3 is still open and viewable. thanks

    Frequencia/Latina

    Hi Folks, Frecuencia Latina was located on sat 55. It shows up gone for me. Does anybody know anything about it? Has it move to another bird? I have been out of the state and away from my system for a bit. And while I am at it, has Canal Sur popped up anywhere? heh, and i spelled it wrong ...

    Feeling Frustrated

    I am sorry to hear they stole it, shows a complete lack of respect. I have found all of my dishes, although they are 10' biggest, just by driving around my county.

    i scanned that one, but canal sur was not on it.

    4033 V 8333 bird 121

    Hi all, Before i get too deep in my array, is anybody able to get this tp still? Canal Sur was on there and the tp seems dead now. Thanks!

    121w missing channel

    Janeil Dark Star- Need spur gear

    heh, not sure about how useful. it is not that style it was modded for a screw type. another thing, those darkstars were not the best dish. The winegard i replaced it with makes it really look bad. actually , all my other dishes perform better. I believe i still have the bracket ends somewhere.

    Janeil Dark Star- Need spur gear

    i wish i had seen this thread earlier. My darkstar was performing badly and had many plastic pieces broken so i took it down. it had a actuator mount installed on it that i would have given away. i recycled as many good parts as i could like the pole mount is 3.5" inside and 4" outside so i used...

    If money was not an issue what c band lnb/lnbf would you buy for a BUD system.

    magic, could i trouble u for a shot looking in that bad boy. It does look like something i might be interested in also, if i had money that is... any idea on the cost of that system?

    Ku + C together on 7.5ft mesh using quadraport LNBF setup

    does that ku waveguide extend past that first step in the c-band sortof scalar? if so, bout how far?

    very nice and good pics of that feed.

    KU, C BANDSTACKED LNB COMBO

    just an update. built that teflon rod dual lnb as near to the print as possible including the flared ku waveguide. all results same as original posts. which is to say , not very good.

    KU, C BANDSTACKED LNB COMBO

    not without milling out that back plate. i did that on one of the broken b1sats that i had but after seeing the teflon 5/16" rod design, i wanted to mess with that instead. I have the rod now, just trying to find the time to try it. one thing i am trying to understand is how to hold the rod in...

    KU, C BANDSTACKED LNB COMBO

    could be. I did make the ku waveguide 1/8 to1/4 inch longer than the c-band. pulled back like it is would maybe do what you are saying. the id of the ku is 5/8" . This is a change from the 3/4 ss -the first test were run on. (new is galv conduit) This made a huge improvement. 3840 is back at...

    KU, C BANDSTACKED LNB COMBO

    i am game, someone point me in the direction of a dielectric 5/16" rod . is Delrin rod an option? They list teflon, so perhaps i will give that a go

    KU, C BANDSTACKED LNB COMBO

    Funny thing is that i had to pull the b1Sat way back on the scalar to get c-band as good as it is. This weekend i may play around with feed lengths. not much going to happen during the week with working 10 hr days. it is just a little bud.7.5' . If i learn anything good, i will post it...

    KU, C BANDSTACKED LNB COMBO

    i will look at putting a longer feed on it and see what happens. it will be easy enough to make. i was hoping for some good ideas to make this better. would you happen to know if the tube must be aluminum, or can i use steel? edit- made a feed out of stainless and it worked amazingly well...

    KU, C BANDSTACKED LNB COMBO

    i did try that, but it didnt work. The FSS alone in the c-band scalar does pull in cozi. I just hurts the signal too much to run thru the B1sat

    KU, C BANDSTACKED LNB COMBO

    This combo begged to be tried because all the parts just fit with minimal work. these are an FSS and a B1sat stacked lnb. The hole in the back of the B1sat (shown is pic B) is the same size as the feedhorn tube on the FSS (pic C). You cut one hole (pic A) in the backplate of the B1sat (also pic...

    Need SatelliteGuys Assistance for C-band Feedhorn Alignment Tool Project

    Brian, When setting up to mill, sometimes i simply take a very bent rod and chuck it in. then by spinning the mill as i bring the table up to it, i can see and measure if i am tipped at all to the table. an optic that spun in the lnb hole, would draw the outline of the dish in either round or...

    Need SatelliteGuys Assistance for C-band Feedhorn Alignment Tool Project

    model b1 sat stack made in china , shipped to brazil, go figure. 2.42" id at opening. 2.4" id 2 inches back. lnb has walls that are about 1/16th" thick probes are 3.25" down from opening. the lnb does not go far enough thru my beta 9 scalar without scalar mod. next is bsc 421 from dms...

    Old Seavey feed horn any good?

    885 bucks is a bit out of my range, but i could go for that Scalar? no need for the sidecar, but that scalar is definitely on my wish list, wanna sell it?
