You don't need to build it. Just stack up about 5" of the same square tubing at the back. You can stack up as many as you want depending on how much clearance you need. It will add a little more weight but not much. Aluminum would be ideal

I get on 11965 H for Thai TV Global Network quality 66 which is almost at threshold and 91 on 12090 H for Nat TV and Hit and Health Network. This with a Coolsat 6000 and 30" dish in Ontario Canada.

I get that mux in Toronto. I have tried a 24" dish and the signal is marginal. With my motorized 1.2 Mt I get it even with heavy rain. I would think that a 90 cms/36" would be just enough.

I know you were testing with the pansat but did you try the S2 Azteca channels with any of your S2 receivers? I would be interested on having a setup like that if the 4 footer picks the S3 signals. Thanks,

I have used SetEditHomecast editor. I think the coolsat loader complaints about the file from SetEdit but it works! There is a few receivers that use the STI7100 and their software should be compatible with the Coolsat 800x. This receiver is made in Europe under the Ferguson and Hivion brands.

Has anyone build up a satellite list with all satellites C and KU band for the Fortec Mercury? If you do can you share your file? Thanks,

I want to win the new SG9120 Heavy Duty DiSEqC Motor & The WS9036 36 Inch Dish

It is coming ok here. 76" dish on a motor and a Coolsat 6000 during the day. The signal decreases at night. At this point 7:45 pm it is at 63 quality and unwatchable. I could peak my dish but I watch it during mostly the day.

I am pulling 83/86 signal and 25/35 quality on Anik F3. The signal jumps maybe the dish moves with with wind. What position is Anik F3 118.7 or 118.8? I have it set to 118.8 on my Fortec Mercury II. I am also pulling the mux on 99 and KLUZ on 91 (this one comes in really strong) A 6' dish...

I have seen this happen on programs that the origin is PAL and the receiver do the conversion to NTSC. Usually tv programs from Argentina and Paraguay which are the ones that I can recall.

I don't want to hijack this tread but I have a question for Ice. How many degrees apart do you get puting the two c band lnbfs like that? I want to do the same thing but I would like to know the separation in degrees. Thanks,

Manuel, it is a cheap no-name c band lnbf. The dish is exactly the same as yours but with the mount to put an actuator mine is fixed at Intelsat 805 for now until I get an actuator and a vbox or gbox.

88 on a Coolsat 6000.

I get this chanel on a 6 ft dish in Ontario, Canada.

Does this lnbf have a switch built in? If so what kind of switch?

C-band you need to bend a little bit the center wire from the coax coming out from the connector in this way ~ so it touches inside the connector in the lnbf. Do this at the switch side and even at the receiver. I have a lnbf that it was given me only horizontal signals. I opened the lnbf...

That did it! Thanks Ice. As per the 24" dish it just gets everything fine I don't think the size is a problem for that sat. The lnb is skewed as I played with it yesterday. There is some vertical transporders that I don't get signal but don't know if they are active. The Coolsat 8100 is...

I got a Coolsat 8100 for $180 Cnd. The other channels scan fine and I see them with good signal. The HD transporder has the lowest quality. I entered the pid manually and I now can see the East HD channel and Create but the audio pid is not working when entered manually.

I installed a 24" dish yesterday on AMC21. I get only the west HD channel on 12140. On 12180 I am missing Create. Can anyone confirm that these channels are still available? Thanks,

Panamericana is at 3858 H 4444 since last week.

The frequency is 11998 V 1563 SR The sat is Intelsat 3R and the chanel is El Canal de Casa. Canal 4 Leon, Guanajuato.

Actually the ku side work fine but you need to push the lnb towards the dish to get the proper focal point but hen you loose your focal point for c band. You can always get at the middle point but you will not all the channels. I just put a ku lnb beside teh bsc621-2 and that works better I...

There is an internal 2 port diseq switch in the lnbf. You can use an external switch. I have done it or use the internal switch just take out the jumper and use a longer jumper to your qph031 assuming you will only use on port on that lnbf. The rcvr port is the C band lnb on the bsc621-2.

Offset scalar ring How are these offset scalar rings perform against the standard ones? Do you see a significant increase in signal?

I have a BSC621-2 C/KU LNBF on a 1.2 meter dish and I get the two polarities at 6 or 12...better results at 6. I get a few channels in C band with this setup. Ku band is not good with this LNBF if I adjust for ku I loose C band. My solution was to add a ku lnbf on the side of the BSC621-2 and I...
