PBS mux on 125W moving around...preparing for changes

[Mr Tony]

also the 12163 H 4444 and 12169 H 4444 alternate between DVB & DVB-S2 depending on need. MicroHD automatically changes if they do

 

[Mr Tony]

12060 TP has just black screens now
12140 TP has the scroll and the blue banner

 

[Diamond Jim]

They are still there.
12180 V 30000
DVB-S2
PBS HD E, W, Create, V-Me and World

Thanks, I will check theem out.

 

[Mr Tony]

Jim those have actually been up since the end of June. The 12060 transponder was just duplicated for affiliates to get changed over to S2
The 12180 transponder is very strong....80 or so on the MicroHD

 

[Mr Tony]

12060 is kaput...was turned off yesterday

Just joined, but saw this thread. Grabbing PBS feeds is my main goal right now.

I was able to secure this Spreadsheet that shows the new channel alignment on AMC21. Came right from a PBS tech himself.

Welcome to satguys

Well looks like we lost our full time LPB.

What is the maximum possible signal quality on tp24
The best I can do is 75% with a signal of 90%

What receiver are you using?

Different receivers will display different quality percentage readings, when in reality they are receiving the same strength of signal.

And different signal types can require more or less signal strength for a stable lock and view.

on my Geosatpro MicroHD I've got 80 quality...mid 70's is about right
This is on a 30" dish

Looks like the 12060 transponder is still there but is completely different,
no channels, very weak and a different coding mode, are they trying
different things? maybe, here is a screenshot :

Is HD04 active? After changes, I'm not getting it. Blindscan does not help.

Sometimes it is, other times it's not.

Well this satellite is the only one I can see from my home (trees & such).

Will one of the cheap-@$$ Openbox or Skybox units work ok for getting PBS in DVB-S2?

 

[Mr Tony]

yes

 

[Mr Tony]

12140 TP is now gone

 

[Blindowl1234]

Iceberg how good of a signal are you getting on the east, west, create channels? I'm only getting about 50% with the MHD. Since the switch, the signal on my 36" Prime* dish is nowhere near the 70% it used to be.

 

[Diamond Jim]

I am getting all of the PBS channels at over 90% on an 8ft solid and an AZ Box Prem Plus here in west central Indiana.
