1.2 dish

[kieron56]

had a 1.2 dish put up trying to get 7w I am in Manchester m25 could I do with a better l m b would that help also running a spiderbox 9000hd

[digicon]

Just curious but what brand is the Dish and the LNB as the Spiderbox 9000 has very good tuner when it comes to Weak/Fringe reception capabilites

[echelon]

an lnb like the inverto ultra black or technomate gold may help, but you should be getting channels like FOX and ROTANA on transponder 11296H 27500 anyway

also try jsc sports news on 12476 V 27500

all free to air and working on my spiderbox

[kieron56]

I have got a new horizon1.2 offset dish a ICECRYPT UNIVERSAL SINGLE LMB 0.1db +wa and a new horizon NH 210 disqc motor

[kegnkiwi]

I'm level with you but over just south of leeds and i can get 700 channels on 7.3w at time to scan in so you should get some.

[kieron56]

Got fox and rotana but no signal so not geting out i mite be doing something rong dont think i am would it be worth changing l m b

[echelon]

Got fox and rotana but no signal so not geting out i mite be doing something rong dont think i am would it be worth changing l m b

until you get fox and rotana and jsc sports news fta its a waste of time changing any lnb,s as your current lnb should be ok to get those fta channels

concentrate in getting those channels first

also

test 5w for test card on gcpe 1 on 12543 H 27500 and the french channels on 11591 V 20000

and test 8w for channels like cairo drama and top 50 on 10972 H 27500

[kieron56]

Will try do you use usals gone from a 90 cm dish to a 1.2 thinking mite be in with a chance

I have got a new horizon1.2 offset dish a ICECRYPT UNIVERSAL SINGLE LMB 0.1db +wa and a new horizon NH 210 disqc motor

It`s actually a 1.1 dish the seller quoted the height ( Long axis diameter: 120cm ) instead of the width ( Small axis diameter: 110cm ) but mentioned the aperture diameter ( Aperture diameter: 110cm ) this package is available on the fl**** site.

Will try do you use usals gone from a 90 cm dish to a 1.2 thinking mite be in with a chance

yes, using usals and my spiderbox list

do a check to make sure you get 5 west and 8 west, just to be sure you are on the money

usals should be around 002.1w , 53.5n

[kieron56]

Got gcpe 1 on 5 west and the french channels they are on and cairo drama and the top 50 they all work ok

[echelon]

ok, try those freebies on 7w again

and are you using 002.1w and 53.5n in usals ?

[kieron56]

The sat guy set it on 002.1 and 53.5 n in usals thats what it is set at now

[echelon]

The sat guy set it on 002.1 and 53.5 n in usals thats what it is set at now

but 002.1 what ? W or E ? (should be on W)

if you read what I wrote, I said 002.1W and 53.5N , so is it W or E ?

[kieron56]

Sorry it set at oo2.3 not 002.1

[echelon]

Sorry it set at oo2.3 not 002.1

ok, but you still havent said if its W or E

you need to learn to give precise answers with all the relevant info m8

[kieron56]

It is set at 002.3 west and 53.5 north

[echelon]

It is set at 002.3 west and 53.5 north

ok, well in that case its set correctly , so I would double check the arc by checking fta channels on 46e and 42e , 0.8w at the top of the arc , and 30w and 45w on the other side (if you can track them all from your location - no buildings or walls or trees in the way)

[kieron56]

Geting 46e free to air and 42e 0,8 also 30 west very good not showing 45 west i have 45 e but that ok to

[kieron56]

I know been told thanks

[skomedal]

I know been told thanks


Who you replying to?

[kieron56]

Sorry was talking to someone else trying to get 7west or 7.3

[echelon]

well , it seems to be tracking the arc reasonably well, your usals is 100% correct for M25 and I cannot see any obvious reason why you do not get those fta channels on 7w or 7.3w

I suppose the arc could be slightly out but its not obvious due to you getting 5w and 8w , and no change of lnb will make it work as you should get some channels on 7w with almost any lnb including the one you have already

now if you have some obstruction in the way it wont work, but as 8w is very close to 7w it would mean not getting 8w too, but you get 5w and 8w so no reason why 7w is missing

[kieron56]

I am doing a blind scan on 7 .west and it has found some will see when it has finished scaning

[echelon]

be careful with blind scanning multiple sats as you could bust the maximum channel or maximum transponder allowances !!

you cannot just scan every sat in as there are finite limits on your box

I uploaded my channel list which you are welcome to use, just change the usals afterwards to 002.3w , 53.5n if using it

[kieron56]

Looking at some of the channels it has found on 7.west doing a blind scan dont look like the channels for 7 west got blue sat up and it shows what channels or on 7 west but they not the same what i am geting on the blind scan i am doing

[kieron56]

Can i try your channel list thanks

[echelon]

blind scanning is only any good for feed hunters (its also something I never do too)

I would suggest you use a premade list like mine or billybits and customise it to suit yourself

[kieron56]

Did scan on 7.west got 131 channels but they dont look like the channels i should get on 7.west

[echelon]

not surprising when 8 west is close by, as I said, forget blind scanning and do manual scans only or use a premade list

[kieron56]

Can i try you channel list please

[echelon]

yes you can, I uploaded it about 2 hours ago in case you needed it

[kieron56]

Ok thanks will try it
