I just plugged my DSR-920 back in after almost two years,
although on a much less extensive dish setup than I had
before. I have a Ku-band only dish, no C-band dish. It's
a 120Cm motorized dish.
Is there a Ku-band satellite I can put the DSR-920 on
that will refresh the channel map?
I noticed that it set it's own internal clock correctly,
so I must have hit something when tuning around looking
for free signals (which I never did find ANYTHING, analog
-OR- DCII).
I have the DSR-920 slaved to an FTA receiver used for
Thai TV. The dish is motor-driven and I've programmed
in all sats from AMC-6 (72 degrees) through Galaxy 27
(129 degrees). I don't have a circular polarized LNBF,
only linear. The dish-driving receiver is a BEC-6600+
FTA unit (Free to air only, non-hacked.)
I'm just trying to add some new free channels.
Thanks for any info, -EF |

You might be able to get some C-band out of it with a conical feed and a
C-band LNB.

Afraid not. You will need c-band access to Galaxy 18 (123W) for this. |

Thanks, I appreciate you taking the time to reply. Guess
I'm going to have to set up a C-band dish (I have one,
but will have to move it, and was dreading all the work...)
