What Cband do you get with a 1 Meter offset

[Cband55]

I would like to know if somebody out there gets Cband on G23 on a 1 MT offset I would like to park a 1 mt offset there

 

[Mr Tony]

with a 1.2m yes you can get some...depends on loc

I can get STO, CST (when its unencrypted), TVW, Jewelry HD here in MN.

121ºw wouldn't be my first choice. I like 91ºw.

Try 58 West for NHK World HD or SD.

As far as G23 @ 121W is concerned at a location near Omaha NE. You can receive STO, CST and TVW on a 1 meter dish with ample signal quality. But I would need your approximate location to determine if you can receive these channels. Once I have that information I can pass it along to a member of the group that also test the 1 meter dish in your local to determine if it is possible to recieve these channels.

Using a 1 meter offset dish no matter what your location, the aforementioned Cband channels are the best you can do. Occasionally you can pick up the RRSat feed but is very weak.

Do you know if the ABC/ESPN C Band feeds can be picked up in northeast PA on a mini-BUD? Specifically the NCAA football feeds? How about the CBS NFL feeds?

I will present your request for information to the group, and open a new thread to respond once I have information pertaining to your question. We are a small organization with members spread across the US, Canada and the UK. We just recently organized and this is our first public post here at satelliteguys.us. Our mission statement is to help answer questions regarding Cband reception using small offset dishes, and to share testing experience among our membership. Some of our members are regulars here at this site and many other FTA sites around the globe. We are happy to answer any questions regarding minibud issues.

Some time back, Linuxman posted what he could get on C-band from St. Louis, Missouri, using a 1m Primestar dish.

Just checked my fixed mini-bud on 91 West. Getting 4 watchable TP's as I type.

3720 CW mux
3820 Fox mux
3860 Fox Reality
4007 Spanish

If I wanted other transponders, I would have to move the dish azimuth slightly, but I think I'll leave it alone!
