amc4

[CbandLover]

just need quick help. Trying to get amc4 for nbc with Primestar standard and fortec. What is a good hot TP to help locate it? Also, am I reading Lyngsat wrong when I see

11991/H 2.000 Msps for NBC?

Thanks a million. Trying to find something other than G10R.

You're reading it right but that one is a bugger to get.

I have yet to get it.

11822 H S/R 5.700 is 3ABN and that is usually nice and strong.

Thanks Shawn for quick reply. You ain't kiddin! That Tp you recommended is REALLY hot. I have never maxed out my quality meter. I tweaked for awhile for NBC, but you are not lying about that either. There is no hope on this Primestar I guess...

Thanks again for your help.

I tweaked for awhile for NBC

Keep trying, it's there. It's WVGN, it took me a while to pull it in, once I got it I have never lost it.

I get WVGN with my Fortec and a 40X30 Primestar dish, but you have to be dead on to get it. Literally, if I give it one nudge to many to the east or the west I lose all quality. I couldn't even get a whiff of it with my old 80CM Fortec dish. Your best bet is probably to get close using the transponder Shawn gave you and then use the nudge command to move the dish until you find it. Good Luck!

Wow, this is an elusive signal. My 76cm Winegard and Invacoom 0.3dB can't find it. My setup could probably do with a little tweaking, so I'll keep trying at it. Guess it's a good test signal to show your setup's really up to snuff, huh?

its a very narrow band frequency....you might have to tweak the frequency 1 or 2 off the 11990.....I can get a whiff of it (15-20) but not a stable picture on my 30"/.4 combo

The .3 gives me a 35 signal

i was unable to pick NBC up off of my winegard 76cm / .5 lnb, but it booms in (~80% sq) on the 304cm dish with .7 lnb, AND with no rain fade issues

I was thinking of trying that transponder again with my 1.5M offset dish in Southern Cal. Are the people getting WVGN in the Central US (AMC4's main lobe)? East Coast?

 

[Mr Tony]

I can get it on a 36" in MN

I think MikeI can get it in Cali with his Primestar dish...I remeber him saying that

 

[drhydro]

I am picking it up in northern Vermont.

I noticed that FOX (KUIL) is missing from this satellite. Can anyone confirm this?

 

[Mr Tony]

was there last night...about a 70 signal quality on the Pansat

 

[executive]

Nope it's still there...

Great, thank you guys. I will re-scan tonight.

Note this is the first one I received when I put a standard Ku LNBF on a 18" dish. It's HOT!!!!
