Where did all the PBS channels go?

[SatNav]

I am no longer receiving PBS channels on 125 W. In fact, a scan brings up no channels though my dish and motor seem normal and all other satellites are received. I also no longer receive the Louisiana Public Broadcasting channels on 87W. Do I have a problem with my gear, or has something changed with 125W and PBS in general? Thanks for any info.

87w LPB and 125w channels are working fine and no changes since they went DVBS2 8psk several years ago.

Maybe you do have a problem with your gear...all PBS channels coming in fine here on both 87 and 125.

They are good here too. Maybe bad LNB? Odd you would lose both. Can you p/u the C-band feed on 103?

Time to start trouble shooting.

When's the last time you checked over your system? Something as simple as loose or corroded connectors could be the cause of loosing these weak and difficult to lock signals.

I lost LPB last year right before it got cold I can get everything else but not that transponder on 87w ku. Did they reduce the power on that transponder?

As mentioned above, the channels changed to the new DVB S2, 8PSK, MPEG4, HD , so older receivers would not get them.

Even SES2 at 87.0W that also shows PBS (Louisiana Public Broadcasting) has also changed to the new DVB S2, 8PSK, MPEG4
