Telstar 6 Outage

[PKII]

Anyone having problems on Telstar 6 C band? I can't get no feeds to come thru clearly. The scrambled channels that are normally there are gone? Anyone have any info on this?

 

[Mr Tony]

can you still get PBS on Channel 8?

I dont think that has been turned off yet (PBS moved to AMC4 TP16 and mirrored on T6 TP8 for 2 months)

I get IA-6 fine. Are you sure you are at the right loaction. Go to G-11 transponder10, the shopping channels should be there. Then bump it to the west until you see PBS. Its on transponder 8 so you will have to turn the channel to 8 before bumping the dish west.

Yes. On C band. I can get that channel. 8, 16, 22, 24 are on now. Scrambled channels on 1, 7 are still off. Does that happen occassionally? earlier none of the channels were on.
