Is there anything to see or watch? Looks like your LNB coax still needs to be hooked up.
I still have my old C & Ku band dish and receiver up and running but zero to see anymore. |

I have it parked between 99w and 101w, so i'm picking of the strongest transponders on both satellites. On that feed, i get the nbc wyoming affiliate. 2 channels of metv, some network affiliates out of the Carribean. Pretty much everything is encrypted, so yes, it's not like the old days when a c band could pick up premium cable channels. The bulk of low cost FTA receiver sales are for 97w, which carries a ton of middle eastern channels. The other thing is if there are some true 1080i signals out there that u can get. Not the 1080i ignal your cable company steps on. 125w ku, offers several pbs tru high def channels. The picture quality with a hd set is off the chart. The other lnb will be 91w, which has the reelz channel, and mediaset italia. you can see whats available at www.sathint.com just pick a satellite, and set the page to display clear/unencrypted channels. |

Very nice! Here is my 10-foot dish with C/Ku LNBs and a motor drive:
I have mostly used mine for the free music channels recently, though. I have a 4DTV DSR-922 receiver connected, and a Satwork MPEG receiver not hooked up at the moment.

retro tv is on 83w. Pentagon channel is on 101w. You'll need a true 36 inch fta dish. Popping a lnb on an old direct tv or dn dish will not work. Montana and oklahoma pbs affiliates are on 125w ku. As well as the national feeds. |

U can watch virtually anything, even on an older set, but u would have to manually downgrade the picture. for an older set, u would set the receiver to 480i to play hd content. You;ll be able to watch the program, just not in hd.

You'll probably only get The Tralfamadorian Channels because you can't re point it to any earth satellites.

You'll probably get just the Tralfamadorian Channels with THAT antenna.
You can't repoint it toward any earth satellites... |

Don't hook up your LNB to that unit backwards, though, because the gain of that dish means the LNB's output could probably burn the Space Station to ashes when it flies past.

There are four full-time channels in the clear, one that still uses Videocipher II encryption, and apparently a few on one of the Canadian satellites for a few hours each morning. Also, there may be random NTSC uplink feeds at various times still.
