GALAXY 19 Ku @ 97W

[KE4EST]

You should get all the transponders. Some will be a little weaker than others, but you should get them all. Your dish and LNBF are great for this bird.
Have you went to dishpointer.com and entered your exact address? Make sure you have a clear line of sight.
Also, have you set your skew on your LNBF? dishpointer will tell you where to set this.

ok im locked in to 97 w tp 12152 90 perc sig 88 perc quality . did scan picked up some channels .i have signal but low quality on all the other tp.am i only ganna pick up 1 tp at a time or should i adjust dish .

List the channel names that you get. We can tell what sat you are hitting.

I chose 12152 as there is not a satellite near G19 using that same transponder(or haven't been). There is just a handful of channels on that Tp. Like SatPhreak mentioned list what you are getting.

Yeah, that’s 103. You need to move the dish east by about 6 degrees

You would be much better served to reply to the original thread rather than starting a new one every day.

Yes, it should be about 15.2 degrees clockwise when looking from the back of the dish. That would be at about 12:30 on a hour hand.
Elevation 40.1 degrees, 208 magnetic.
When you find it, you will find a couple hundred channels on it.

Merged threads again. Starting multiple threads is not gonna get help any faster.
It actually causes more confusion and possible less replies.

Go to a weak transponder, and fine tune your dish to maximize the signal. Then re check other channels and repeat as necessary.
How many channels did you scan in btw.

5 channels i wonder if i hitting a diff sat..wen i adjust the skew on the eye theres numbers on the back of the eye an on the ring..how do i do that?i need 15.2. do i line 15 on the eye with 0 on the ring,or do i just move 3 lines on the ring...kinda confusing.

Did you change your azimuth as comfortably_numb suggested? You were pointed at 216.1 degrees (magnetic) and you need to turn the mount east about 8.2 degrees (as opposed to the 6 that comfortably_num suggested -- the Earth's radius is not negligible in the calculation). If you spun it 6 degrees, you're probably looking at Galaxy 16.

I'm using numbers from DishPointer - Align your satellite dish using zip 43420

It is relatively important that you answer questions as they are asked. If you want help, you have to keep up.

If you are trying to receive 103w ku easiest one to hit is 11942V 20000 SR its a really strong signal.

Galaxy 19 is at 97W.

Sorry wasn't paying attention.
