Finally got around to putting up a fixed Primestar dish and have it pointing at AMC 4. Focused in on the People's Network showing NASA with 98-99% Quality on my old Fortec Lifetime. Added TP's for KUIL Fox and WVGN NBC and could only get KUIL at 99% Quality. Later today I turned to KUIL and was now getting breakups/freezing at 99% Signal Quality. Now it is gone.
Checked downstairs where I have a motorized 30" dish and Fortec Ultra and KUIL is kicking at 99%. Didn't have any freezing earlier with this setup either.
NASA showing 70% Quality. Can't get WVGN here and that's why I put up the big ol' fixed Primestar dish...hoping to get it.
Odd looking LNB on the Primestar and the single coax from the Lifetime goes straight to a 22KHz switch and the H/V LNBs. Lifetime 22KHz setting must be "Off" for switch to work. Odd.
Anything look questionable about this setup or LNB?

With Primestar LNB the 22KHz switches between H & V just fine on the "Off"
setting. With this LNB I receive a big list of channels when doing an "All" satellite scan. Quite a few free ones. Just not WVGN, and now, KUIL.
Quit raining today so I switched LNBs. Put on my old Fortecstar Universal LNB (No switch needed), changed settings (Universal 1 is only one that will work) and did an "All" scan. Only receive 3 channels total. KUIL, TV English, and TV Latin. No Peoples Network, Service 1, etc.
Geeze, what a mess!
With Primestar LNB, on Peoples Network, high 90% Signal Quality.
With Fortecstar LNB, on KUIL, high 90% Signal Quality.
And still, WVGN nowhere around my St. Louis location.
All I can think of now is wacked out LNBs.
Not one, but two.

After much trouble with that big Primestar dish, even attached my known good working standard lnb with even worse results, I'm dumping it. Not sure what is wrong with it, doesn't look warped or anything, maybe an unusal lnb focal point or something. Anyhow, put up a regular Primestar dish and all is well...well almost, still can't get WVGN, but everything else seems to be there.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Can we expect to see a new coach if we say "pretty please?"

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed
Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner
The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.
Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.
