Reuters TV News

[TheHamNerd]

Does anyone have a dish parked on 113W for Reuters News? Does Reuters News have any other channels KU band on any other birds?

I show Reuters on TP: 12047/H/14300 Is this correct?

When I was lining up my dish for 113W I did not have that TP in my meter. I will add it to my meter soon. I know I am not on that TP very well, I think I tuned for TP: 12079/H/25634 To me most everything on that bird is foreign, and or religious programming. I am more interested in news at the moment.

As far as Reuters TV News goes, do they have anything else on that bird, or is it on that one TP only? Also, do they have anything on any other KU bird? I am not hung up on Reuters, I just like news and was wondering if it was worth parking a dish in the future for just TP 12047? It seems like that it a test or uplink frequency, because there is not much on it constantly worth watching. I think I was watching the sun come up in Israel last night, and different shots from around the city, then live fire from military.

Thanks,

Lyngsat has it listed as 12046, SR 14200, Horizontal. (and is what I have it scanned in as) AFAIK it's just one channel.
I have fixed on 103 and 99 for DSNG services. 91 w is also a good one. You'll have to watch it [113W] a while to determine if it's worth a dedicated dish.

Thats strange my receiver had it default @ 12047/H/14300

I have seen Reuters referenced at 12045/14300, 12046/14300

I guess they can vary in frequency....is this normal?

 

[FaT Air]

Yeah, different receivers/brands may have the SR off by a couple hundred at times. Freq may be off by 2 or 3 Mhz.

I understand a ch can show some variations depending on receiver, I´ve noted that when comparing my scanned freqs. with those posted sometimes here or on Lyngsat.

Is Lyngsat a good place to follow for accurate TP frequencies?

I prefer sathint.com, but I check both.

I never have any problem with Reuter's feed they just use DVB-2 8PSK mode.

I just went through all my 97W TP's and changed a few to match the list on the SR! I am learning the hobby. I guess not every receiver has the most accurate TP freqs...it is a good thing that you can edit everything in the receivers!

 

[TheHamNerd]

I guess that is more of what you can call fine tuning...Like FatAir said....these receivers will get you in the ball park...it's up to you to fine tune. I am learning! Don't worry, I will continue to ask questions! LOL No matter how stupid they sound...that is how we learn.

Lyngsat has a typo on the Symbol rate. It should be 14300 and not 14200.

Your LNB can also be off a couple of MHZ especially the older DRO type (non PLL) as they age will drift.

Personally, I always end up going to http://www.global-cm.net/MPEGlistCBandUS.html
Or http://www.global-cm.net/MPEGlistKuBandUS.html

Unless he's on vacation, it is very accurate.

I am using the Geosat lnbf PLL SL1PLL lnb. I would asume these are PLL lnb's

There's some sort of bombardment going on now on the Reuters channel. It looks more like flares than high explosives, but they're covering quite a bit of area.
