OTHER Help With dish alignment.

Is that 91.1W ( 12224 R 20000) ?

Bell TV on Nimiq 6 at 91.1°W - LyngSat

Just came here to say this... this seems correct.

Although the Frequency is one off... ?

How can I pull these in ? or is it encrypted ?

Is NIMIQ 6, the same as Galaxy 17 ?

The frequency 12224, or the symbol rate 20000, one or two numbers off is not a big deal. That is no problem to reception, usually.

It looks like about the whole satellite 91.1W is encrypted in Nagravision, according to the link.

Do you know where to find 99W, now? (Elevation, azimuth? Use dishpointer.com)

I'm not sure if you have a linear LNB (Hor/Vert), or a circular LNB (Left/Right)? 12224 is Right, according to the link.
This is not my expertise, though; maybe others can comment on that.

Congrats to your first catch! (though no picture...)

OK. I seem to be on Galaxy 3C now... Based on the transponder values, and I have pretty decent picture. Oddly, I can catch this with the LNB Set to 10600 or 10750, but the transponder numbers when it detects the channel are wrong for some reason. The Symbol numbers seem to be more accurate.

How much are the frequencies off, when using 10600 (or 10750)?
Then add or subtract that number to 10600 (or 10750), and you should be spot on on all frequencies (or, as discussed above, just 1 or 2 off).
