Wow really got my first 6 foot dish

[manuelpaz]

hi guys finally got my first dish ( 6 foot ) is really easy to assemble and signal Quality is really great. I got 37.5W,43W ,45W,55W,58W,61W( Amazonas). Maybe later i'll try to get the c-band circular and after that start with the 87 W
to 125W i hope i get all. this new dish model from Sadoun is the best.

got some pictures.


Hope u guys like them.

I keep post it the others satellites ,which of them i can get.

WELCOME to the real C-Band club Manny
I've got 3 of those 6 foot dishes (2 Fortec 1 Sadoun) and they rock.

So now you shouldnt have any issues getting MetroTV now

Looks like 40.5W has a ton of circular polarity signals on it

Hi Iceberg

Yes really thank u for the welcome the 6 footer really best, instead of the 1.2 m (ku dish)
next time i got the c-band circular.


Manny

 

[Mr Tony]

all you need to do is put the dialectic plate down the throat of the LNB to get circular. If you dont have it, I've seen folks use like a credit card to make it work

If you take the cover off the LNB you'll see 2 sets of grooves on each side. That is where it goes to make it a circular polarity LNB

Nice dish.. and like ICEBERG said, welcome to the C-Band club.

 

[turbosat]

Good job! Now you'll want a 10' -er! haha
Enjoy the new dish.

 

[truckracer]

Congrats on your new dish it looks nice. Welcome to forum. I started out with a 6' prodelin pointed at G10r @123w to watch TVN ppv, and the outdoor channels. That was a few years ago. I have grown into a 10' sami.

Your hobby will grow! So will the dish size.
Have fun and enjoy.

and thank u guys. Manny

Manuel, Did you get the unscrambled Televisa Networks mux on 43W? I ve been trying to no availability , well the trees are the culprit probably but wanted to confirm. Like turbosat said , now I want a 10 footer minimum!!!.

 

[putney]

I'm jealous!

 

[Mr Tony]

hee hee noticed you have the Sadoun logo at the bottom of the dish

I think all of my C-Band dishes have the logo at the bottom too

Manuel;

Good job, I know you'll be happy with your new setup.

I'd try too but I'm in the same boat as you...trees in the way
(can only get to 55W)

Hi guys

I coudn't do the testing for 43 w but i'll do it tomorrow morning.sorry for the delay

Manny

Hello Hd fun

well i really try to get Televisa Network (3928H,13500) no signal maybe need a bigger dish but zero signal Quality.

ur friend Manny

 

[hd fan]

Thanks Manny. It has 7/8 FEC as I recall so It is very difficult to lock, guess I need an 8 footer now , lol and more important get rid of the tree !!!, lol.

 

[manuelpaz]

Hd fan

Hi, maybe next week i can try to do the test in a 10 footer dish and i'll let u know about it.

later Manny

 

[Mr Tony]

The 7/8 FEC shouldnt matter of locking a signal....now whether it plays without pixeling is a different story.

When I do updates for thelist, AMC1 has DW-TV (German)...that TP is 7/8 FEC but I can lock the signal enough to log the channel for thelist. Its pixeling as heck but will log

The fact manny is getting 0 quality means either the dish is undersized or not aimed correctly.

Sometimes the LNB needs to be pushed in a little bit

 

[manuelpaz]

It really works after Months working

Hi guys

this is manny i really about my 6 footer dish because I thought never gonna have Satmex5 @ 116W but finally yerterday i got some channels in my box bur the problem was in the c-band lnb because i got to adjust counter clockwise and after that bingo signal showed. well I got this satellites (72W,87W,99W,113W,116W&121W) like i said it was hard but now I got it.

thank u guys for all ur comments.

this is a picture of a 10 footer is nice but the 6 footer works better too. maybe 8 to 18 SQ more (10 footer), this dish i can access 2 times a wee. I use it for testing.
