Winegard 100CM vs 76CM Dish

[WRBreland]

Can someone with a 1M dish and a Twinhan 1020A or 102G check their Signal Level and Quality on the following satellite:

Satellite: AMC–3
Location: 87.0°W
Transponder: 21
Frequency: 12128
Polarization: H
Symbol Rate: 14028

I have a Winegard DS-2076 (76CM) dish and would like to know if it would be a worthwhile improvement to get a Winegard 3100 (1M dish).

Receiver: Twinhan 102G (installed in HTPC)
LNB: DMS International ASC321 (purchased a Invacom SNH-031 but the ASC321 works better).

Signal Level: 69%
Signal Quality: 59%
Location: Mississippi

Hi,

I managed get AMC4 on my WineGard 100cm but wanted how do you set the elavation on the darn thing.
With 76cm WineGard theirs a red line to indicate the current elevation but not on the 100cm one.

Could someone please tell me correct process for setting elevation for 100cm.

I need setup another for some friends but cannot figure it out.
I managed setup their 76cm for RTPi but would rather use their 100cm one.


Thanks,

Tony

With the 1 meter Winegard you line up the elevation nut to the required angle, as always the elevation angle should be peaked in using your signal quality mater.
