Thanks .91 or 99
but dang man get a motor on that thing
As soon as I can get it aimed and get some more funds I will.
I Canceled DTV and they have taken my money hostage claiming it is a Receiver non return fee.
After I get that straightened I will see what I can do
My non motorized dish is currently on 91W. But when we get closer to the next shuttle mission I'll swing it over to 87W for the NASA feeds. They have a full time NASA HDTV channel now too if you have a HD receiver.
I asked this same question a few weeks ago. Here are the sugestions.

Sounds like a motorized dish is best for Ku. I have a friend that bought a non-motorized 30" dish with Ku feed and a Traxis about a year ago and the guy (not me) that talked him into buying the stuff said that Galaxy 4 (now Galaxy 16) had a lot of feeds. That may have been true a year ago but it doesn't look that way now. I don't think he'd be happy with a limited/non-motorized system. Anyway, this guy doesn't have the technical expertise to set up and maintain his system. So, I don't want to "encourage" him into buying a motorized system. He has an 8 footer that he once used with an analog GI receiver but it's not in working order. Even though he'd get better performance from the 8 footer I'm not going to recommend that he spend the money to get it in working order again. Some people just aren't compatible with this "hobby". But, if there had been a Ku sat with enough programming, that he'd be interested in, I'd at least set up his system for that. Anyway, thanks for the reply.
Same here. My 10 footer usually stays parked on 87 when it's not scanning for sports feeds. Plenty of TV and a real good music video channel there!Mine spends a fair amount of time on 87. Plenty to keep me entertained there.
:up
I gotta say I am all over my arc. If I lost my actuator or positioner, I would replace which ever one right away
Another NEWBIE Question, Sorry.
If everything is scrambled on 91, at least that's what I see, is there a servce to get the channels? I am not looking for a hack, Thanks

I believe that everyone who is talking about 91° is talking about G17 C band, not NIMIQ 1 Ku. There is a lot of good FTA programming on G17 C Band, plus this is the C Band forum
Glad, I moved my MiniBud to G17 C-Band!!!I believe that everyone who is talking about 91° is talking about G17 C band, not NIMIQ 1 Ku. There is a lot of good FTA programming on G17 C Band, plus this is the C Band forum
Bird 87 is dvb-s2 and 8psk on what looks to be the best channels. I don't currently own anything that will do that. For those in the forum that are watching those channels, what box are you using for it?
I parked My bud at G-17 (91 c- band). It has some good viewing for many boxes that dont do dvb-s2.
