Need help with lyngsat.

[HCI]

This is not a FTA question but I know you guys work with lyngsat and different transponder frequency's.

My question concerns the frequency's listed on lyngsat. For instance I am a Hughesnet technician and say if I am pointing to AMC 3, transponder 6k. Now when we put in 6k freq in a modem which is for just about every satellite we use a 6k on we put in 1070. Then every 1K point we add 20, 7K=1090, 8K=1110, 9K=1130 and so on. Now on lyngsat its converted a different way. AMC 3, 6K is 11820. How do you convert that back down to the input freq?

Reason I am asking, I am trying to help a guy who is in Iraq set up a modem on W1@10E. This is what is on lyngsat 11526 V tp D4 HughesNet Europe.

to get the IF frequency, take the frequency from Lyngsat and subtract the LNB LO which I assume is 10750

so lets say Lyngsat shows 11900

11900-10750=1150 IF frequency

so in your above, 1070 would be 1070+10750=11820

If its C-Band then its 5150 - frequency

so C-Band if its 4040 it wouold be 5150-4040=1110

or if you want to be adventurous, hover the mouse on Lyngsat over the frequency and look in the bottom left corner. It shows the IF frequency

Very good. Thanks.

I noticed the hover over only works on IE...won't work on Firefox

I noticed that also.

So just to make sure 11526-10750=776.

Is it the same for a European bird?

 

[Mr Tony]

In that case, it would be on the low band of KU so subtract from 9750 (low band is 9750)

11526-9750=1776 IF

I am assuming this. Univeral LNB's use a LO of 9750/10600 for low & high KU. Since its below 11550MHZ which is the bottom of the KU hi Band (10600+950) we have to use 9750 as the begining
