Where am I

Well, I finally got a few hours off of work tonight, and decided to put my new oval dish up... So I hook it up, plug it in and without aiming, it's on something (hehehehehehehe).. So I scan it, find about 10 transponders and the only channel I see are color bars and the words "Metrosports"...

Any idea where this might be???

that could be anywhere, usually a sports feed.

It's strange

Really strange. Peak the channel, rescanned it and now I have like 4 or 5 Metrosports channels... Some kind of a service...

Doesn't really resemble any Ku bird I seem before...

Maybe because...

Maybe because i don't want to... I have all that stuff in the basement, I know the websites (and have old dos based programs) and I prob used it all 15 or 20 years ago when I set up my 1st BUD..

Now that I have set up a new 80CM Ku, and a new 6' C/Ku for FTA, please humor me, I'm trying to keep it interesting while setting up my 3rd Dish here.... No compass, no angle finder, no pointer...
