I don't get SatMex 6 at 113W due to a huge pine tree in the LOS.
I drove the dish to 119W and blind scanned 40 scrambled channels and not the one I posted.
My dish with USALs is tracking correctly right up to 125W. I'm using a universal linear FTA LNB.
Are there any other Dish birds close to 116W?
I don't see that one either. I have 6 hot KU transponders on SatMex8. I watch some C-Band on this bird but no ku.
I recall 1 trans. off 113w coming in at 40%'ish. Ill check tonight. If am able to get it, so should Jorgek.
Cheers, K
PS- Pin trees grow pretty fast, go out and prune the thing.

His freq is 11941 which is Anik F3 @ 118.8W. 119W is Echostar with freqs above 12200.
Depends on what is entered for L.O.
And Lyngsat just happens to have a fresh post of new TP with Dish Test Channel not too far from what was posted.

Okay thanks for all the excellent replies. I did recheck the dish azimuth and it is OFF between 1 -2 degrees. We had one heck of a wind storm the other day and I suspect it nudged the dish a bit. I am still tracking all the sats that are in my STB but some are weaker Q. Sometime this week I will re align and retest.
To compensate for the azimuth change I altered the LONG in the USALS menu. I added 1 degree. Now I have blind scanned SatMex 8 and I get TP 12080 and the odd Dish channel has disappeared.
