Yep! Looks like someone has put something up in the slot or, moved an older bird that is still operational into this slot. Looks like the RX antenna is not quite polarized too! ;)

Here's a video of the satellite (tumbling) and 3 large pieces of debris in the same orbit.

From the looks of Satsignature.com, "She's dead Jim..." No carriers on V/H KU or Cband... https://satsignature.com/plot/america/amc-9

I was wondering if anyone had access to older Scientific Atlanta antenna manuals - specifically the SA 9000. This was the old 2.8m CBAND antenna that most all radio stations had out in their antenna yards. I found this thread over at Engineering Radio forum. Someone had recently upgraded this...

Sorry, Thanks......

Do you mean AVCOM? A "power supply" is usually a rather simple circuit. Now, if it is the H/V supply for the CRT, it may be a little more complicated. I have 37d's in my racks that have been on 24/7 for years...

Just got this. Nothing else on the wires about this. Anyone else have more info? ____________________________________________________________ ATTENTION CABLE SYSTEM ENGINEERS Emergency Satellite Migration NBCUniversal AMC 11/13: BRAVO HD EAST, SYFY HD EAST, USA HD EAST, OXYGEN HD E/W, NBC...

The word is that there are 2 companies pioneering the 4K satellite STB. One is the chip maker Sigma Designs. The other, Technicolor, has an actual platform. I have sent them an email and placed phone calls but have yet to receive a response.

Hello All! After a brief hiatus to upgrade the 6.4m transmit path, we are back on the air with the 4K transmission on Amazonas 3 KU94. There is a rumor that the content on this feed will change to something a little more exciting in the near future. I will keep everyone posted. Also, can...

The traffic is 58Mbps of MPEG4 DVBS2 8PSK 2/3 @ 30Msps. Depending on the PC system, the system buss may not be able to carry this much traffic. As has been said, you need the one of "higher end" TBS cards. There is also a buffer configuration that needs modified in VLC. I have been asking...

Are there any folks in down near Pleasanton, TX that can pick up the Amazonas 4K feed? Just curious. (inthefrey - The 4K Amazonas uplinker )

When I tried to install CrazyScan, it started asking for a bunch of .dll files I didn't have. I tracked the .dll files to an assembly program called QT.

Stupid DekTec StreamXpress software crashed. Should be back up now. No automation on the modulation, only the carrier. inthefrey

All, Just as a fair warning, I got a TBS6982 from ebay that is losing packets like crazy on this feed.The video looks like Vincent Van Gogh decided to take up DVB pixel art before he died, not 4K video. Anyway, to be fair, it may be something in my machine. However, I can play the ts from the...

Yes, I actually do have a question: Do I need anything special to download and use the CrazyScan software? Do I need to download and install anything from QT? Thanks!

So, you are not having any trouble receiving the stream? This is GREAT news. Yes, probably the 24fps conversion. Many thanks for your input! inthefrey

tripinva, Nothing too special that I can see. The feed is being played from a generic, Windows 7Pro/64 server through a USB 2.0 FantASI stream player. I'm sending that to a Novelsat NS1000 DVBS-2 modulator. The modulation is DVBS-2 8PSK 2/3 w/ Pilot. Sent to garden variety Miteq KU upconverter...

Xizer, I'm not exactly sure how long it will be there. I guess that depends on how long Hispasat wants me to keep it up there.(hoping a very long time...;) ) The engagement is currently open-ended with no firm end date after the close of NAB. Also, your scanner is showing the incorrect video...

All, yes, there is video. And, it is amazing! Being displayed right now at NAB. ;) Unless you have a ts demod and using VLC to watch it, you are probably not seeing anything. You need to use the HEVC codec in VLC. (H.265. yes, not a typo - H.265) The current ts bitrate is 58Mbps. Any...

All, here's a plot of the AM3 carrier if this helps anyone find it.

Hi all, The new Amazonas UHD service is coming from my uplink. I am not yet at liberty to share the company name. For those trying to view it: The reception should be done with a typical DTH earth station (small size antenna+universal LNB) and, since legacy receivers are not compatible...
