    Amc 83w

    Hello, Well I finally found amc83w, after about 3 months of trying. I have one question I am getting retro tv and tuff but cannot seem to be able to acquire the cband, will try again tomorrow with a different lnb and see if it comes in. Also i am getting galaxy 19 at 97w but very low quality around 30 percent compared to 50 percent for amc9, what can i do to get better reception, thanks

    jnoda1 Try moving the dish with the GBOX and see if you can lock the c band transponders. I have to move my dish a little on the same satellite to get c or ku. Make sure the lnb is straight in the scalar ring too.

    On 97W move dish to it and try to flex the dish left &right up and down to see if quality gets better may need some fine tuning.
    Great to here you finally found 83 w. look at step 6 fine tuning Footprints by Dish Size - Adjusting the Polar Mount for Prime Focus Antenna - C/Ku-Band Satellite Systems - Tuning, Tracking, azimuth, Elevation, Declination Angles, F/D Ratio, Focal Distance, inclinometer, LNB/Feedhorn Assembly, Actuator Assembly, C
    So what did you do that finally found it?
