NBC mux on 99 Ku

Is the NBC mux still up along with Montana PBS ? I don't get them anymore but I still get the national PBS's. Rescan doesn't get them either.

Hmmmm....may have to tweak the dish again this weekend. Getting Q=69% on the other PBS's which is better than before tweaking it last time.

Just over +9 dB for NBC via a Channelmaster 75 cm in western Canada

If you are having precipitation, Montana drops out quickly. Only solutions are to wait for better weather or use a larger antenna.

Larger antenna ? I like that idea !!!!

IIRC you have a 90 cm, and there was some vandalism/damage to it awhile back also? If you can afford it, you might consider upgrading to a 1.2m which should get you everything on 99 including all the wild feeds. There are dish resellers in CA that sell them, too, so if you have a truck or other means to pick it up, that could save you the shipping cost.

Yes except this is a new GeoSat dish and I didn't have issues with reception before. But I still like the idea of a bigger dish and will be on the look out for one possibly for C-band.

Are you actually able to receive video and audio? My TBS6985 card will let me scan the channels into Tvheadend but nothing will actually play. The PBS mux comes in fine so I don't think the dish is out of alignment, at least not by much.

NBC mux is encrypted. You can't receive video/audio.
