    5G (BLUE) Filter Issues

    If the interference times do not line up with the solar outage calculated times and duration, then it would be local. Have you identified the frequency and strength of the interference? I would set-up a spectrum scan from 3.7 - 4.2 GHz and capture and hold active carriers that are...

    5G (BLUE) Filter Issues

    Most likely you are experiencing solar outages, when the sun lines up directly behind the satellite, twice each year (spring and Fall). This will happen for a few minutes each day for a week or more (up to 10 ten minutes at the peak). https://gi.globaltt.com/Tools/ToolsSolarOutage.aspx

    Also, the LNBF appears to be installed in the clamp with the skew set to "0". The skew for 97W satellite from Florida should be rotated to approximately to +26.3° https://www.dishpointer.com

    First C-Band Dish Need Motor Suggestions

    1.8m dish is not suitable for the majority of C-band signals. Don't waste you money motorizing for C-band. The beamwidth to too wide for C-band and it will receive signals from adjacent satellites. This would be a good reflector for KU, but it will not receive many more KU services than a...

    Comments from a newbie to FTA

    They are DirecTV transponders. The STB detects and is logging the TPs, but is unable to decode the transport streams as they are not DVB compatible.

    Comments from a newbie to FTA

    Use a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) or external referenced LNB(f) to reliably lock low Symbol Rate signals. DRO type LNB(f) drift too much on these narrow carriers.

    First C-Band Dish Need Motor Suggestions

    The 8 ft dish might provide enough gain to receive the stronger DVB-S C-band signals, but not adequate to receive signals with higher FEC rates and modulations requiring a higher SIgnal to Noise Ratio (SNR). The minimum diameter for a 3 degree beamwidth is over 7 feet, any smaller diameter...

    How am I getting this?

    There is an approximate 3dB attenuation when receiving circular polarity on a linear polarity feed and visa versa. Many satellite signals are strong enough to be attenuated 3dB and still decode. Just depends on the reflector size and if optimized. Will likely duplicate each transponder and...

    OTHER Cannot get Disequ 1.2 to move dish

    Be certain that your longitude and latitude coordinates are entered correctly in the stb. Often the longitude East / West selection is selected wrong or not entered as a positive or negative number. Please take a screen shot of the USALS (GoTo X) motor configuration menu settings.

    Any one not getting the Weigel channels?

    Not my point. Simply responding to the "shady" comment. Many reasons to connect to a network: device streaming, storage updating, apps, etc. Not saying anything about the STB performance. Yes, the "feature" can be disabled, but the STBs are typically shipped with key auto roll active by default...

    Any one not getting the Weigel channels?

    Yep... Automatic Key Sharing, enabled in some of these receivers, by default. Connect to WiFi and the keys are downloaded from an offshore server.... Some of these guys aren't even aware that it is TOS. :oops:

    Testing the Titanium C140 and C240 5G Filtered BLUE LNBFs

    A transponder at 3947 MHz is far below the band pass frequency range of 4000 - 4200 MHz and will not be received. The C140 and C240 BLUE filter LNBFs attenuate all signals outside the band pass. Simply put: you cannot filter out the frequency that you wish to receive. Save your money...

    Titanium Satellite Announces the Release of the 5G Blue Filter C-Band LNBF Models - C140 and C240

    No plans to offer either a limited bandpass LNB or waveguide filter (or combo), as your feed would require both products to replicate the front end filtering and limited bandpass conversion / amplification filtering of the C140 and C240 LNBFs. We developed the C140 and C240 LNBFs because no...

    Titanium Satellite Announces the Release of the 5G Blue Filter C-Band LNBF Models - C140 and C240

    Two factors determine the band pass range when selecting the correct LNBF type: 1. What is the transponder frequency range that you wish to receive? 2. Is 5G in use in your area and if so, what bands? If you are targeting reception of transponders between 4000 and 4200 MHz, purchase the BLUE...

    Using C/KU LNB

    I don't know of any combo C/KU LNBFs on the market which provides filtered C-band (either Red or Blue filter). All combos that I am aware of are either 3400-4200 or 3700-4200 MHz C-band band pass. If you have any 3GHz 5G usage in your area, the C-band reception will be problematic.

    Need help to identify unknown interference

    There is no satellite based 5G in the C-band frequency range. The 5G C-band frequencies are terrestrial based. Time to hook a spectrum analyzer to your LNB and see confirm the presence and source of the interference. You will likely observe carrier spikes above 1170 MHz IF (3980 downlink -...
