SES-3 & Horizontal Issues

  • Server Issues.

    We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. As of 12:05 PM ET our provider has moved us to a new server.

    Things seem to be running better on this new server. However in trying to diagnose the issue (before finding out it was a hardware issue) we made some system changes which we need to undo. So if you find any issues or errors please let us know in the Operations Center Forum.

    Thank you for your patience! Sorry for the issue!

Just wanted to say Thanks to ya'll. I'm a trucker and didn't have chance to work on the issue.

So I started from "scratch", taking all your suggestions in account. Got a new LNB, placed dish on one of my fence poles, extended the LNB arm with PVC pipe, skewed the dish (vice the LNB). Locked onto the bird on the Vertical side and made some small adjustments.

Using my satlink WS-6906, was able to get 87%+ signal but Quality was below 20% on the H TPs. So I connected to Sat RCVR and "boom" had lock on TP 11760. Made slight skew adjustment and then locked in on TP 11880.

Looks like my WS-6906 does not like Horizontals.

Thanks again ya'll.

For "shifts and giggles" try aiming your LNB lower towards dish center.
To me it looks like it might be shooting more towards the logo than the dish center.
It might explain why you're losing H signal strength. Mine did very well on both polarities.
