One more thing . . . Hi, Since I now have two units (Buzz and Captiveworks), can I essentially hook these up in series by using the loop? Example - LNB into the Captiveworks, Loop on Captiveworks out to Buzz LNB in? Mark PS - Of course, I wouldn't attempt to use both units at the same...

Thanks Thanks, I think I'll get out there tommorow and try playing with both the azimuth and elevation a bit and see if I can improve things - am I better off working on a TP that has a very low reading or one that has a good reading? The LNB is as far back as possible and not skewed in...

Having fun playing around with it Hi all, Just wanted to give an update (and ask more questions if I can), I've been getting a kick out of the newsfeeds and watching Chinese TV. Tried fine tuning by moving the motor a little to the right and left - didn't get too much out of that. There...

Thanks Thanks WYR - It's pretty cool now that it's working. I'm the only guy in my condo complex watching feeds or Chinese television or whatever it may be. I seriously wouldn't have been able to do it without the help of the people on this board. I'm planning to make a donation so that...

Thanks Pete Pete, I'll give that a shot! If I'm getting at least one transponder on a sat, is it safe to say that I'd be able to see any transponders on that satellite that are putting out a signal? Thanks, Mark

It's working! Thanks Pete and David! Hi Pete and David - thanks so much for your help! I've got the motor hooked up and it is finding some of the other satellites (but not all). I'm seeing FTA stations on the following satellites: 91 87 83 79 74 101 97 95 So there are many...

Thanks PSB and 7720Driver! I've got some watchable video - I think for tonight I'll try the skew thing - I think I'll also play with moving the LNB backward and forward in its mount (I think that will do something, but I'm not sure). Then tommorow and the next few days, the motor goes back...

I got it! Hey Hey Hey! Thanks everyone! I am now pointed at 79W! I'm certain that it is because I'm getting stuff off of the New York Network and OTB on 12182. I put a mast up that's verified as plumb! I don't have the best quality in the world and have tried to make it better, but...

Thanks again! Hi, thanks again everyone for the help. I have a mast that came with - over the next day or two, I'll give a try at securing that on the very sturdy wrought iron railing so that this thing has a pole to sit on. I'll then try as suggested to mount the dish first sans motor with...

An update - some interpretation needed . . . Hi everyone, I took the following trouble shooting steps: 1. Took the Disceq switch out of the picture - the L LNB is connected to a signal meter and then connected directly to the reciever - I'm using something less than RG-6 to go from LNB...

Thanks Unfortunately I did pay the pro installer for his time - I should have asked when I hired them if I only paid for results. With respect to blind scan, unfortunately my unit doesn't support it. I think I'll have to mount a pole to my railing or put a poll in the ground because the motor...

Thanks for the help - here's more info. Thanks for the troubleshooting advice everyone! The LNB is an Invacom QPH-031. It has both C (circular) and L (linear) polarity outputs. Right now I do have it running through a disecq switch. I think yesterday when the installer was here we tried...

LNB model # Invacom QPH-031

Hi, I'm just about ready to give up on the whole FTA thing. I've been trying for about two weeks and reading the threads here and today I hired an installer who couldn't get it either. Here's the set up: I have a 90CM Fortec Star Dish with an invacom LNB with a HH90 stab motor. I have a...
