I discovered a bonus. Using the 97W LNB on the 1.2m dish, I can also receive one transponder on 99W. This tp is the main one and is powerful. So I am receiving 97/99/103W on one fixed dish with only two LNBs.

Ok, Thank you. How do I adjust the LNBF skew?

I found this about ANIK G1 and wanted to share my experience. I am on the VA / NC border. I could not get any G1 channels with the 75e from Shaw, I tried a 4 foot, no go, I tried a 6 foot, but it would only get one transponder , number 16. So then I installed an 8 foot offset Prodelin in order...

Pay no attention to Signal Intensity meter reading when aiming the dish. That meter reading only indicates that you are connected to a LNBF that is powered on. It does not indicate you are pointed at a satellite. You could point the dish at the ground and get a signal intensity meter reading...

A LNBF usually will output vertical polarity and provide adequate amplification with 10 - 14Vdc source voltage. Current draw and distribution voltage drops are the variables. An option to your above diagram with the single leg power passing splitter would be to use the loop through hardware...

What I wonder about those is if it is one 'booster' per launch or if they could launch more than one at once? How much money would a satellite owner really save extending the life of an existing satellite 5-10 years, when a new satellite would last longer and be capable of a lot more. Just look...

I used one for a while, its size is definitely a limiting factor. I mostly used it on 30W, it was good for casual reception of the stronger transponders (Cuba, Arab league, Spain), but insufficient for the weaker transponders (Argentina, Uruguay). I also briefly used it on 34.5W Ku, but it...

This will be my initial review of the box as I've had it for about 5 days now. This is my third box that will do 4K. The first one was my Zgemma which was dual tuner but couldn't blind scan and didn't work on the AAC audio channels. The second was my Octagon S8008 which was single tuner with...

That was the case back in 2014 with OETA when they were on 125W, the engineer at the station (thread on it over at legalfreetoair.com) had to do some minor adjustments to their 6.3M transmit antenna alignment for “center of box” which corrected a similar cyclical fading.

As the signal appears to be increasing/decreasing within 24 hour periods recorded on multiple days, it is possible that there is an uplink tracking error or transponder receive/transmitt hardware or setting. Have observed similar cycles of reduced signal and cycles of increase/decrease due to...

Hmm, I certainly don't mean to discourage you from trying :) But you are definitely in a challenging location. Also, I'm not sure that we're looking at the same 14W or the same set of footprint maps, but on SatBeams.com it shows its Americas Ku foot print with a solid 48dBW here in Connecticut...

I lost my int'l package 5 weeks ago w/ 10 years of service. After 2 different techs they replaced the transponders on the dish. I still do not have 118 showing up in the switch check. They replaced the switch on my power pole outside the first time and a couple coax connectors. Switch test shows...

If you use a splitter, the FTA STB will need to be either placed on a vertical transponder (13Vdc) or powered off when the Orby receiver is used. If the FTA receiver is powered on and tuned to a horizontal transponder, the Orby receiver will not see the vertical transponder. Also, the Orby EPG...

Thank you. That helps us tech guys understand the operation of the system. I am extremely pleased with orby Sent from my SM-G955U using the SatelliteGuys app!

Here are some answers to questions I have seen posted on the forum more than a few times 1/ LNB and the 22kHz tone The current Orby TV LNB is capable of using two different LO settings. Setting the 22kHz tone on drives the Orby TV LNB to the correct frequency range for our current...

My numbers are normally not THAT high ... I was surprised when I looked tonight. Typically they are all in the 90's though, a few in the high 80's is fine as well.

This is the info from some senior techs that informed me of the two 4k limit on recordings channels. Sounded like a built in limit due to new technology of 4k and few channels 2 years back. But they did say even if they added more 4k channels (for a while dish had a 3rd 4k channel it's gone...

DTV is waiving the $100 fee. So no waste there. This is happening on all receivers. I was good with the explanation regarding the power level on T1-8. However, Jimbo's comment about receiving 95+ on 103ca does not align to the explanation very well. Also, you would think technical support...

Not a problem I thuink. TPs 1-8 have been at zero for a while while DirecTV moved some of its satellites around in preparation for the end of SD transmissions. My guess is that the transponders are live again, maybe at a slightly lower power level. We'll see how things develop. 103ca...

I can tell you. Because I have hooked mine up a few ways. I now have my Orby hooked to my 2nd 10 foot c band satellite. Working fine. I still have trees in my way.. I have it on a powered switch. 4x8. C band on 13/18 Orby on 22k 13/18. Orby default 22k When I first got Orby. I...

I decided to upgrade my equipment a bit, to see if i could get the channels any better. I bought a GPU server, 2 TBS6909 boards, 1 6908 board, upgraded my LNB to Norsat 8525R and used a BPF-C-1. I am using a power injector for the LNB's so i dont damage the boards or server, and i am using a...

From my Satlink WS-6906 I can run a blind scan right at the dish. I can also see when the meter is switching between 13 and 18 volts. While watching the scan i can see the meter find 4 Horizontal transponders. Then it switches voltages and finds the same transponders but as Vertical. It the...

The TV resolution and/or refresh seems to be a reoccurring problem on your system. Glad you now can recognize this problem and manually change from the image default. If you put your STB in standby or remove power, the time reference should be enabled for start-up. I don't believe that is the...

I have notice this too. It will scan so fast it will not lock. Could try transponder scan and then manual. Some channels need a moment to lock signal.

Johnny use the frequencies that the mio4k finds with the blind scan and scan with signal finder if the blind scan service scan miss them. Some of these low power tranport streams are funny with the mio4k and slow to lock just have to sit on the channel until the signal pops in.
