I was wonder if any of you use a SMW Type R Ku Quad Band LNB and what receiver your using .The Spec of the LNB is :-
Lo 10.00 ( 13v . No Tone ) 10.95-11.70 Ghz
Lo 10.75 ( 13v , 22Khz Tone ) 11.70 - 12.25 Ghz
Lo 11.30 ( 18v , No Tone ) 12.25 - 12.75 Ghz
Lo 9.75 ( 18v , 22 Khz Tone ) 10.70 - 11.70 Ghz
I was wondering what receiver you were using it with and what LNB settings you set the receiver at .
Lo 10.00 ( 13v . No Tone ) 10.95-11.70 Ghz

Almost any receiver could be set to use that LNB. But the question is why would you want to use that LNB? You need to understand LNBs a little better.

LNB LO Frequency - 101
The following was written by Brian Gohl, owner of Titanium Satellite, while he was still at SatelliteAV: LNB LO Frequency - 101 What is an LNB and how does it work? When a satellite signal is reflected into the feedhorn, the signal travels down the feedhorn or a waveguide and is picked up by...

Yes I thought the same but this SWM Type R its a bit of a odd ball , If you switch the LNB settings to Universal 9.750 - 10.600 it would seem you only get 2 of the bands .
Lo 10.00 ( 13v . No Tone ) 10.95-11.70 Ghz
Lo 10.75 ( 13v , 22Khz Tone ) 11.70 - 12.25 Ghz
Lo 11.30 ( 18v , No Tone ) 12.25 - 12.75 Ghz
Lo 9.75 ( 18v , 22 Khz Tone ) 10.70 - 11.70 Ghz
This is why its not plug and play like your standard Universal LNB , Since this is a commercial Quad band LNB not sure what is the best receiver for it .
My thoughts so far are you won't find a consumer hobby receiver that is fully compatible with this LNB. It's a professional grade LNB designed for professional systems. These are your options with the Technomate TM-5402
SMW LNB, frequencies correct, polarisation as per position name:
| Technomate position name | LNB settings, all single | ASC1 |
| 1. 4.8e 10.7-11.7H | 18v, 22khz on, LO 9.750 | 4.8e H |
| 2. 4.8e 11.7-12.25H | 13v, 22kz on, LO 10750 | 4.8e H |
| 3. 4.8e 12.25-12.75H | 18v, 22khz off, LO 11300 | 4.8e H |
| 4. 4.8e 10.7-11.7V | 18v, 22khz on, LO 9.750 | 4.8e V |
| 5. 4.8e 11.7-12.25V | 13v, 22kz on, LO 10750 | 4.8e V |
| 6. 4.8e 12.25-12.75V | 18v, 22khz off, LO 11300 | 4.8e V |
With SMW set as Universal, frequencies incorrect, polarisation as per position name:
| Technomate position | LNB settings | ASC1 |
| 1. 4.8e Ku H | Universal | 4.8e H |
| 2. 4.8e Ku V | Universal | 4.8e V |
With a universal LNB, all frequencies correct, all polarisations correct, auto polarisation:
| Technomate position name | LNB settings | ASC1 |
| 1. 4.8e Ku | Universal | 4.8e auto polarisation |
sub101uk, just curious what feed horn you are using, can you switch polarities? Doesn't look like a common waveguide connection for Ku.
Funny they would seperate the Ku band into 4 sectors rather than two. Makes it interesting to play with though!
Agreed most FTA receivers should work fine with it; as long as you can enter the LO frequency manually. Some receivers might even allow you to set it up as a universal if you can enter two LO values so you would only need to program in two satellites instead of four.

Browns lose a close one with... The Jets. That is a classic Browns loss (granted, any loss is a classic one it seems). 49'ers, Vikings, and Chiefs remain undefeated. The AFC north have a three way tie at 3-2 for second place.
A big win for the Patriots, and they are now 3-2.

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....

Wasn't exactly sure where to post this. Just had a customer come in inquiring about internet. He has HughesNet and had heard good things about mine. He asked if we provided email addresses and it kinda caught me off guard. I said he should be able to keep whatever email he had been using....my sister in law is still using a BellSouth email addy and they haven't been around here for many years. He said he had gotten a letter from HughesNet stating that they had until Nov 16th to save, move, forward, whatever, their Hughesnet emails because they would lose them after that date.
I have never heard of a company simply mass-deleting email accounts (the customer still has his HughesNet service). From what I understand, in the past, the company who was ditching their email service simply sold the customer base to a company like Google.
Anyone else getting this letter. He said he would show it to me tomorrow when I go out there and set up his internet.

For the naysayers who did not think this service would make it, just added another 4.9M subscribers and that was after the removal of 1.2M Russia subscribers.
This is even better, Paramount+ revenue grew 120% and Subscription revenue grew 74% year-over-year ( 2nd quarter 2021/ 2nd quarter 2022) to $830M, principally reflecting paid subscriber growth on Paramount+.
Now compare that to Peacock with only 13 million paid, 13 million free.

So, this means that those of us with Commercial Free subs, won't be Commercial Free, unless we wait till after the show is over ?
Which would make same day, not that big of a deal.
Paramount+ has always had the CBS shows on the CBS local channel and yes with commercials. What they are doing now is releasing the OnDemand versions of the show which I believe they don't release until after the shows air on the west coast. And they will be commercial free if you subscribe to the ad free version of Paramount+.So, this means that those of us with Commercial Free subs, won't be Commercial Free, unless we wait till after the show is over ?

I wasn't up at 3:00 am to check but they are there at 8:00 am today.
The new curated multiview is now live.
While on many of the sports channels and non sports channels there is a multi view option button. It will pull up a side bar with many different multi view options.

Apple has finally released their Apple TV 4K with built-in Siri and a microphone so it can respond to your queries even if you don't have the remote. It also increases in price, to $299. I had been planning on updating my current Apple TV 4K streamers, but that's $600 for the two of them, and that's a pass at this point.
At $299, it had better come with 256 GB of Storage, Gigabit (or better) Ethernet, the latest HDMI tech and standards, and one year of free Apple One. But it probably won't…
