I am having a little trouble getting Galaxy 3C (95*W) here in sunny GTMO and would like some help, please.
Here is my current setup:
GPS Location: 19* 56.383'N 75* 6.714'W
1 8ft prime focus dish pointed to the 101* (I receive all the channels I subscribe to)
1 6ft prime focus dish for the 95* (To receive the Filipino channels D* offers)
I am using a Invacom QPH-031 Quad Polar LNB on this dish (http://www.invacom.com/products/qph_031.htm)
1 Zinwell 4X4 multiswitch model SAM-4402-3 (http://www.zintech.com.tw/Product/LNBF/Switch.html)
1 D10-300 receiver that has already been programmed for the 101* and 95* (My wife sent it to me from my house in the states where we receive the Filipino channels also)
Does anyone know, with my current setup, should I be able to receive the signals from 95*? I was looking at it's footprint and I am located barely outside it's 40dbW Ku Horizontal Beam and between it's 44dbW and 46dbW Ku North American and Puerto Rico Beam (http://www.panamsat.com/global_network/galaxy3c_ku.asp)
Is the 6ft dish to small for the 95*?
Does anyone know which two ports on the Invacom LNB are for Linear polarity? Currently I am using the first from from the left when standing in front of the dish and the LNB ports are facing down.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

You may need a bigger dish, or get a separate one for the 95. Then you would have three dish's.
However, the maps are just estimates with their spotbeam locations. If you show up "just outside" the spotbeam, you may still be a few miles from it, and not get anything.
I hope this helps you.
I sincerely want to thank you for your service. Please know that many people pray for all our troops daily, and though you may feel disconnected from home, and American culture, you are well thought of by many on a daily basis.
God Bless you!

You are right CyberIT, and all you have to do is contact DirecTV Technical Support, tell them that you need help getting the signal in your area, and I'm sure that they will help you every step of the way. This way, you will get exact Technical support, and not a bunch of rumors...
I'm sure that because you are in the Military, the Signal Integrity department will also assist you in accomplishing your goals... BTW, please let us know what steps you have to take to resolve this issue...

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.
