I got an 31in fortec dish.. Was wondering why i only get 1 TP on 97west..?
11965H only one i get..
Any idea's why? I'm in ohio..
King,
On that TP, what channels do you pull in?
I am skeptical as to whether you are on the righ sat or not. Knowing which channels you are receiving will help explain this.
RADAR
post 3 shows his list so he's near 97W but maybe isnt on it 100%
I would try and move the dish a little east ro west
from thelist

I think you mean he is pulling them in from 97 and not 99
Theres a lot more on there - you must be out of alignment or else you have a warped dish.
I get all the listed transponders from lyngsat with a 30" dish no problem.
My dad who lives a few miles from me -same dish- was only getting about half the transponders - some H and some V -- turns out his reflector was warped so we twisted it back into shape and voila - all the transponders come in.
How do you determine if a dish is warped? Obviously, if it is bad enough then you would just see it. But, what if it is warped only enough to mess things up and isn't very obvious just from looking at it? If it is warped how do you go about "twisting it back into shape" ?
the dish was not noticably warped. My dad was on the roof, I was reading signal Q from the ground. We could only get signal on certain TPs when he twisted the dish. So he twisted it into shape.How do you determine if a dish is warped? Obviously, if it is bad enough then you would just see it.
