How would I know if they are actually broadcasting "LIVE" right now?
I have no quality on that sat.
No obstructions, I live near Galveston, Texas,
Highest mountain is a ant hill.

Ask someone here who has the satellite up and running.... The coordinates I gave you for this satellite are good.

Nice pictures!

Gandolf how are things coming with your system? I'm interested to see how your combination works. Thanks, Mike

It is working perfect!
You know I had to go into the rotator and solder the coax contacts to the board, they were either a snap type fit are were just poorly soldered and I was loosing contact at times. (simple fix).
The only other complaint I had was the performance of the remote control, the front lens is so dark that the range was only about 6 or so feet, So I removed the face plate and drilled a hole in the face plate at the sensor location and it works now at 25 feet. Everything working good here.
Thanks for asking, G

Come on, Gandolf, haven't you ever watched the movie "Uncommon Valor". It clearly shows troups training in some jungle-forest-mountain laden terrain labled as Galveston Island.

Sorry for the off topic bit... I grew up down the coast from Galveston in the Lake Jackson/Freeport area, and we always got a kick out of the beginning of that movie...
