In short order, "T15" (AT&T officially renamed them) does not have local spotbeam capability like T9S, but has nationwide beam transponders only, with two additional spotbeams to also mirror the nationwide tps. to cover Puerto Rico and Hawaii. T15 can also operate on the Ku (32 tps), Ka (38...

Uplink power is limited with a LEILA siren on your downlink. Self policing by WebSDR helps to identify out of band transmissions. A spare transponder is used. QO-100 PowerPoint here: https://www.datv-express.com/uploads/UserGuide/MiniTouner-Express%20User-Guide-draft16.pdf Monitor the sat via...

My understanding was it was a modulation issue on how they wanted the transponders configured versus an actual MPEG4 issue, they wanted to use S2 to squeeze more bandwidth out from the transponders in the combination of MP4 instead of DVBS and couldn't with the old bird as those modes were not...

Your results are typical for the equipment you are using. The pros use big dishes and dial back the power on the transponder to just enough to do the job. The biggest improvement you can make is a larger dish.

There was nothing stopping them from doing MPEG4 prior to T16. What it brings is the ability to reach Puerto Rico (so they can retire 110) and Hawaii at full power (so they can use a Slimline instead of the AK/HI dish) and use the 6 transponders currently used for spot beams from 101 for CONUS...

How suitable would the 500 be for limited knowledge users like many RV'ers to use for aiming portable tripod mounted dishes? I'm regularly asked for recommendations, but the high end meters turn them off quickly on price.

Oh wow! As much as I'd love to get my hands on a this, I am iOS only. Thanks for offering though!!!!

Have a few factory samples of a Dr.HD 500 combo meter that I could be talked out of at a nice below cost price... LOL :biggrin Give me a call if you are interested. I won't be offering tech support on this item (which I don't stock), but it was very easy for me to learn to use. The 500 Combo is...

Sorry to hear you are having such a bad time with things lately. I hope it gets better for you! As far as sensor wire, maybe try 2 wire shielded alarm wire from Home Depot. Titanium mentioned it in this post. :) Cleaning up and mounting a BUD

Well, a few weeks ago on my last day of vacation, a young man ran into my car at a traffic light and totaled it. Added to my bad luck, today a lightning bolt struck a pine tree about three houses down and started a small brush fire. Thankfully, it was extinguished pretty quickly, but I had a...

If you're having one transponder peak at a different spot than another, chances are that the issue is interference from an adjacent satellite. The bigger the dish, the sharper the focus, I think (assuming not a huge difference in focal ratios.) Of course, the sharper the focus, the better your...

I think those 30k transponders are data on 83W... no TV there. So try aiming a but more to the west. LPB is actually quite easy these days, they have increased the power, and as CN said, the CNN Newssource transponder is always a strong target there Also, you can't compare the Quality readings...

The technical data submitted to the FCC is for the maximum transmission power for any given transponder since that it the data needed to do the interference calculations. It will be the actual maximum power for the transponder. The operating transmission power will be at max or lower. It's...

Nobody! I don’t even think Dish wants to buy Directv. The satellite transponder space is not an issue, both companies “if” they wanted to can provide locals in every DMA. Granted 4K is going to take off in a few years, but it’s going to be a long till every Dish or Directv subscriber would...

If a LNB, power with 18vdc (horizontal polarity lnb setting) and manually rotate the feedhorn so the probe inside the feedhorn throat is rotated to the polarity and skew angle for the target satellite. You also will need a conical scalar as a flat scalar will not properly illuminate the .5/.6...

Let's start with... C-band band LNB or LNBF? If you dont know, take some photos. All mechanical and receiver settings are necessary to find a satellite. Unless you have the correct feedhorn, skew setting, dish angle, azimuth and receiver settings for LNB type, power and and active...

There both stationary dishes in the Manhattan reciever it has lnb power on or off and gives you a drop down menu for the lnb settings as far as the readings go I haven’t taken any measurements. Thanks for the response

How do you power the LNBFs? With a STB, legacy IRD, or a dish positioner? What is the LNB Power setting in the install menu? Measuring the DC voltage at the dish, what is the reading when a vertical transponder is selected? What is the voltage reading on a horizontal transponder? Any switches...

Not antennas...charlie is some kind of contributor to an app called locast...free locals over the internet..integrated into the hopper Sent from my SM-G950U using the SatelliteGuys app!

Are they going to provide 8 million free antennas? If they wanted power over the broadcasters they should have been including an antenna install for every new customer 15 years ago and making an OTA tuner standard in all their HD receivers. Installing a few free antennas here and there isn’t...

The grounds on the power company's electric system are terrible, or in some cases, non-existent. I've complained numerous times and it always falls on deaf ears. I have all 8 dishes bonded together and even ran a new drop to the room with the 2nd receiver so both would share the same circuit. If...

Hello Forum, I came across this forum trying to see if anyone had a similar problem I will present below.. My sister in-law have a hopper that actually was shorting her entire 20 amp breaker on her house when it was being plugged in.. She received a new hopper from dish-network and she notice...

This has been an issue for years with multiple satellite receivers sharing a multiple output LNBF. Sometimes it only affects specific frequencies (transponders) on a satellite and other times it will take out the entire frequency range on one or both of the outputs. As A33 points out typically...

I did ask the CSR how many customers they had, she said the just broke 1k a few days ago.. They need to get on the ball quick I don't think they can even pay for the transponder lease alone not to mention content, power, and labor with only 1k subs...

A voltage tester will indicate if power is present on the coax. One probe touches the outside of the f-fitting and the other probe touches the center stinger wire. Set the meter dial to DC 20v range. the meter should display 13 volts DC with the receiver on a vertical transponder and display...
