Onn quality tonight?

[boomer_106]

I was wondering what you guys are getting tonight on ONN? I just checked it because I wanted to blind scan H2. I always stop on that channel to zero my bud in before doing a blind scan. Some nights it's booming and some it's very weak for me.

weather maybe?

I know it fluxuates greatly..most of the time its booming but sometimes its just above the threshold

Thanks Ice. Maybe so. It's very marginal again tonight. About 25% on the pansat 9200 HD

 

[Mr Tony]

hows it working today?

70 on the Fortec Classic (which reads low)

It's not very good. I had it at threshold. Now it's gone again. Checking AMC6 I can get that transponder good and strong. It's one listed on your "need a strong transponder " post.

Today for some reason I'm in the mid 70's, it's even fluctuating into the 80's Go figure

Ice, thanks for your help on this. It turns out my servo motor had gone bad. I couldn't reliably get anything on Horizontal TR. I went out to the dish and when I would change from a vertical to horizontal the servo hardly moved. I've replaced it and now it's booming in at 99% today

sweet Glad it was something simple
