If memory serves me correct the count at lyngsat is somewhere 192 but I am confident I currently have closer to 250.

Which channels are you talking about? Can you list them for us....

Been working a ton of hours here lately but as soon as things ease up a bit I will build lists for each of the sats I have access to.

I will get my c band lnb (didital?) what does it mean It states that it can receive both digital and analog signal. Not sure, but I hope that is good for my sake...

Should be just fine. Are you getting the BSC621-2?

Feeds are morning variety shows and live news feeds, occasionally they'll transmit Canal de las estrellas, but warning you may get frustrated while watching as any of these channels will go off air or change to another broadcast right in the middle of what your watching.

I tried to get it with a 90 cm dish and no luck!!!!!!!!

you should have been able to get the ku feeds with a 90 cm make sure the TP you are trying to get is on a north american feed.

ya le hice el intento quite el KU lnb (con su placa) y puse el nuevo lnbf y le empece a dar vueltas y no agarre ningun satelite. Ninguno le puse todas las opciones de los lnbs que puse arriba y nada... Puse la informacion de los transponders frequencia, el SR numero y le di vueltas al plato y nada... estoy peor que al principio. antes podia ver algunos de los KU como el t-5, y otros ahora no veo nada en c-band. No se que necesito hacer. Ayudenme por favor....

OK if you are searching for tp frequency's that are 5 digit it is Ku. If you are searching for frequency's that are 4 digit they are C Band.So if you have the C Band lnbf installed and you are looking for 11720 you will never find it. to find a tp of 11720 you need Ku. If you have the Ku lnbf installed and are looking for 3675 you will never find it. 3675 requires a C Band lnbf. You need to provide us with far more information as to what you are trying to do before any of us can help.

Ok, I get your point. Maybe i did not explain myself correctly. What i tried to say is that before when I had the KU lnbf, I was able to get some KU channels from some satellites. Now with this new 13K C-Band lnbf I am not able to get nothing on C-Band Satellites yet. My question was when I select the satellite for example satmex 5/C on my pansat satellite installation screen I have to choose a lnb configuration. Like the ones listed above standard, standard hl, etcc... Which one of these options do I have to Chose so that I can get the channels???? Based on what you mention It has to be the one with only four digits, huh? So the one that says standard 5150 ? option??? That tip that you mention about 4 for C-band and 5 for KU is great thanks.... I will try it again on Monday and I will let you guys know what I got if I get lucky.....

I finally got it yesterday and I started to play with the dish.. But no luck....

elgemcdlf · #43 (**permalink**) 11-19-2006, 09:00 PM

You listed 2 options that had 5150. Try those two. Do you have the ability to define one yourself? If so set one up per the specs of the lnbf.

I will go out tonight and give it another shot. I dont have the compass right now but I will try the 2 with the 5150 and see what happens. I will let you know how did it go by tomorrow.... I will look on the instructions to find out if i can manually put one lnbf with the specs .. thanks again for the help and support....

Being in California I dont think Im able to watch PAS9 and beyond.....The limit my dish has is from AMC 6 at 72W to AMC 7 at 137W...Is there a chart on where it says how far I can watch from arc to arc in the horizon belt? Will buying a bigger Actuator work for me?? Any imput is appreciated....thanks

Generally speaking you can see about 60 degrees in either direction fo your true south. If you are not getting that travel then an actuator would help. 123 is CA so getting to 72 is 51 degrees. You should be able to see another 9 degrees or so. Maybe a bit more but not much. Perhaps just adjusting the actuator would get you the extra movement you need. There really is no reason for you to have your actuator centered on the mount as there is not much to the west of you. I would move the dish to the farthest west sat you wish to view and then mark the dish and mount. Now extend the actuator as far to the west as it will go. Come back in a little bit and loosen the pinch clamp for the actuator and slide it in the mount until your dish is close to the mark you made on your mount. Now tighten the clamp and reprogram all your sats. You should have more travel to the east.

People living in the west mount their actuators on the east side of the dish, not on the west side like people in the east. Therefore, there is no issue relative to more extension, since extra range problems will be to the west for them. Generally people in the west fully retract their actuators, and position the connection so that the dish is looking just above the eastern horizon. Done this way, no issues at all reaching any sat visible to the east.
It's just the opposite for people in the east. I used to fully retract, and position the actuator connection for just above the western horizon, so my extension problem was to the east. People in the midwest, typically between the Mississippi and Rockies, are the ones who have the problem, in that whichever mounting direction they choose, they have to do something similar to what you describe above, as there is a choice between losing some sats to the east or losing some sats to the west, plus as we recently discussed, some dishes seem to be set up differently with respect to the ability to extend past due south, plus some actuators just don't work well (some even just let go and flop) when extended past due south.
