by lyngsat footprints should be able to receive it with a 90cm dish.

OK I got a 36'' Dish and was able to pickup 97% signal strength vertical on a birdog but the problem is I only able to pick up signal for few frequancies like
Telstar 12 at 15.0°W - LyngSat

11806 V 7596-3/4
11959 H 8138-3/4

But the main frequancy I need 11714 V 14400-3/4 I can't get ,,


Could it be the dish size?
Could it be the LNB?

I spent over 2 hours with no luck. Am I missing smthg? ,please advice.

not all TP uses the same power so this TP may be weaker then the others and may required a larger dish.

So you think I will be able to get all the frequancies with a larger dish?

How big you suggest?

[rainman]

no way of knowing untill you try it. if I was going to get a new dish I would go with nothing less than 8.5' that way you can receive C and KU band freq.

Abu Dhabi sports stopped broadcasting. All I see is a still picture with Abu Dhabi sport logo. Does any one know what happened to it; did they change the frequency or they cut the broadcast for good. By the way I’m in California.

As long as they still have a logo, that means either they have technical issue or they haven't paid their bill to the satellite uplinker. The uplinker maybe putting this for a short period until the bill is paid. This is speculation of course and not facts.
