Bronze Member Username: KingdomPost Number: 23 Registered: Sep-05 | venus is working fine here |
New member Username: Erenia0324Post Number: 2 Registered: Nov-05 | where are you living kingdom if in south florida let me know. |
Silver Member Username: WoofyOntario Canada Post Number: 185 Registered: Feb-06 | Should be no problem with that size dish . |
Gold Member Username: The_wank_artistPost Number: 1088 Registered: Feb-06 | Wasn't there a limit on pic size upload since all the P0RN pics were spammed on here?? |
Silver Member Username: WoofyOntario Canada Post Number: 186 Registered: Feb-06 | does it bother you? |
Gold Member Username: The_wank_artistPost Number: 1112 Registered: Feb-06 | No. No bother at all. I tried uploading a week ago but got an error message saying images could only be 1KB???? Didn't know you could post the picks again, that's all. |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3704 Registered: Jan-06 | lets try it and find out! One or more of the images or attachments you uploaded exceeded the maximum allowable upload size (which is 100 kilobytes). |
New member Username: Erenia0324Post Number: 3 Registered: Nov-05 | hi rob. so how come it says searching for signal. |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3707 Registered: Jan-06 | Searching for signal means just that!...dish LNB cannot receive signal due to obstruction or bad alignment.. |
Gold Member Username: The_wank_artistPost Number: 1113 Registered: Feb-06 | What is your signal quality on the TP for those channles? Should be TP 12253 or #3. Are you using the latest bin for your reciever? |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3709 Registered: Jan-06 | Don't need the latest bin...factory bin can find signal!...all sats have some free channels..a scan of the sat would help...this sounds like a "hold my hand" thread already!...and where absolutely no previous effort or reading has been attempted! |
Gold Member Username: The_wank_artistPost Number: 1114 Registered: Feb-06 | I was under the impression that it was only the Venus that were not working, from the first post above. "my signal and quality are good but for some reason my venus says searching for signal." |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3713 Registered: Jan-06 | Bev in south florida ....I get another impression.. |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3714 Registered: Jan-06 | and U either get 82 or 91 or don't!...she didn't say scrambled channels!....said "SEARCHING FOR SATELLITE!" |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3715 Registered: Jan-06 | "SEARCHING FOR SIGNAL" aka "SATELLITE" |
Gold Member Username: The_wank_artistPost Number: 1115 Registered: Feb-06 | At least let me finish my morning coffee before you start yelling at me. |

Gold Member Username: The_wank_artistPost Number: 1117 Registered: Feb-06 | You're pointed at 82, not 91 correct mandy? There are two BEV sats, and 82 has the international channels. |

Plz Tyler...since u r de GOLD Mem.. plz tell me which is one iz de best ??.. |
Bronze Member Username: KarlaCanada Post Number: 42 Registered: May-06 | Yesterday I move my dish to see if I could get bev on nimiq1, just for the heck of it, using an old echostar receiver for signal, AND IT WORKED GUYS!!!, with 99% signal! I was so proud of myself, then I entered the keys on N2, but the only weird thing was that on the list of satellites I only have dishnet, but it still worked with the provider id that I got from here. cheers |
Gold Member Username: The_wank_artistPost Number: 1118 Registered: Feb-06 | MKM, It depends on personal preference. After the last ECM, everyone was high on the Viewsat and down on both the Pansat and Cools@. Once/If the fix comes out for this ECM, whomever releases it first will be the new top dog. All receivers have their +/-. Some better EPG, some easier to load software, etc. etc. I suggest doing some research and if possible try out the receivers at a friends house if they have one, or at a store before you buy. Then you can form your own opinion. Karla, Good for you! Depending on the bin, some don't list BEV by name, only provider id. |
New member Username: Erenia0324Post Number: 4 Registered: Nov-05 | hi all. listen i'm getting pretty much everything from bev. except the venus and very few other. i check that 12253tp and it at zero. i guess the 39.5 inch dish not big enought for south florida. |
Bronze Member Username: Smarcus76Post Number: 49 Registered: May-06 | hi there LK, is that the pic of the guys working for blacklist trying to find us the new bin?? |

Silver Member Username: WoofyOntario Canada Post Number: 189 Registered: Feb-06 | erenia..if you are missing venus por n and ppv..and you have done your scans..then chances are you are using an older bin file. double check you are using the latest for your stb. |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3719 Registered: Jan-06 | erenia...be happy with what U have..people always want the channels they don't get...U must readjust your dish as I stated earlier.. |
Silver Member Username: WoofyOntario Canada Post Number: 190 Registered: Feb-06 | And do what LK tells you too.. |
New member Username: Erenia0324Post Number: 5 Registered: Nov-05 | ok lk. but if it's dish alligmment why do i have good signal and quality in antenna setup. thanks |
Silver Member Username: WoofyOntario Canada Post Number: 191 Registered: Feb-06 | This if from another site..you have a big enough dish..but it does explain what LK was trying to tell you. Re: Venus/transponder 12253 If your signal quality is low (red) for that tp then you will not get those channels. If you are in S.Fla or S.Calif you may need a larger dish. You may only need to peak your dish. While watching that tp, hold the dish by the edges and flex it up/down/l and r. See if the quality changes. Adjust dish accordingly if needed. |
New member Username: Erenia0324Post Number: 6 Registered: Nov-05 | sound good rob going to try it later when my hubby comes home. thank you, i'll let you guys knowwhat happens. |
New member Username: Mandy29Post Number: 5 Registered: Jun-06 | thanx tyler i will try now |
New member Username: Erenia0324Post Number: 7 Registered: Nov-05 | hi guys, well i did what i was told but nothinng. i looked for the tp 12253 and move the dish until i got a pretty good quality but when i when to antena setup on the top right corner i couldn't see the sat name. i scan but nothing came back. any ideas. thanks |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3762 Registered: Jan-06 | U need to be at Nimiq1 (91W) when U do the scan.. |
New member Username: Erenia0324Post Number: 8 Registered: Nov-05 | yes but when i put tp 12253 with good signal i lost the name nimiq1,3 on the right top and scan nothing |
Gold Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 3766 Registered: Jan-06 | thats because U are ONLY scanning that transponder..now go scan nimiq1 or check to see if u got whatever channels U were missing.. |
New member Username: Erenia0324Post Number: 10 Registered: Nov-05 | listen after i get good quality on tp12253 i go back to antenna setup look for nimiq 1,3 and i scan but it does show up nothing. |
