Read this, now should I try readjusting a 90cm dish on that sat I never did get Cozi TV in well at all? If the new sat is up please post with any improvements on a 90cm dish.

Transition has been delayed. Microspace says the SES people haven't received the OK from the FCC for their bird ... yet. New date for the switchover: unknown.

Details: microspace.com

Somebody is taking a pay-off. That new sats been floating around up there for a couple years now, and still isn't online...

What I don't undstand why that Directv is complaining that might interfere with their Ka band? Surly their bird are far apart by I am guessing 70 miles separation apart!

It's not about interference. It is payload capacity for KA in that orbital slot. This is pure business 101 with one company controlling the license for KA in that portion of the arc and blocking potential competition.

Huh, er, I think it is more of a Monopoly 101, although on a limited scale.

Are they using and losing longevity on the SES replacement with all this wait? If so, why don't they petition for ability to operate all but the Ka band?

Or move it to another slot and bring in a bird without Ka. The game-piece is in play on both sides of the board!

He already is! Have you been in the PIT lately and seen all his threads? lol

 

[N5XZS]

Someday we will have subspace radio other than Ka band! If USS Haller transmit from Mars that would be the day!

I try to stay polite and respectful.

They surely knew that DTV had those claims/controls when they launched this bird!!!!! IMHO E_V
