Does anyone or is anyone using the 97w sat? I post this question on another site and someone said it's the Globecast sat and the channel(VTV4) may be encrypted. Can someone confirm this for me, thanx

Iroy, so all i do is basic setup for this right? Point to 97W bird, then scan(blind) for channels. Is there anything else i should know?

I'm still having problems setting up 97W to get VTV4, any suggestions would be nice. It seems like i can't get over 43% Quality when i'm looking for the satellite. I'm using a sat finder but still no luck. Do I need to do anything on dish settings, you know like LNB-22khz-satellite-skew-motor-ect.?

My setup: Pansat 2500,33" dish with linear LNB

I'm currently aimed at 119, so when i hook up a Diseqc switch to my setup. It'll look like this right, 119 port 1- 97 port 2?

Hey Bones
Antenna Setup
Satellite
IA-5 OK
DiSEqC #2 if that is the way you have it.
Positioner Setting
Disable
Above disable there is TP change to the Freq.
that I have posted above.
Now use your Sat finder.

One question, how can you receive
EchoStar 7 @ 119.oW with a Linear LNB.

Greek, thanks for the input. I have my 119 and 110 hooked up to two different satellites to my Sonicviews. I'm just adding on the 33" w/linear lnb to the pansat, cause i read that the pansat would pickup the 97 bird. Ever since it went down a few months back, i'm trying to get it back up for my moms.

I'm still having problems getting VTV4, I'm still having problems just getting 97W. after a few hours i had to give up cause the sun just came down. i didn't have an extra person to tell me the quality of the satellite so i just grabbed an 19" t.v and brought that up to the roof to watch and adjust the satellite to get enough quality myself. Kinda funny, neighbors asking me what the hell am i doing watching t.v. on the roof. Damn this satellite isn't giving any more than 44%. Anyways I did get a satellite but don't know which one.

Here's what i'm getting:

TV CAncao Nova
Jordan TV
AlJazeera English
ZHong
Tamsha
PARS TV
ISHTAR TV
NAT TV
IPTV NEWS/DRAMA
LAO TV
Etc.

I did what Kavin told me up top but still don't understand. What value does the LNB Local Freq has to be? It's at 10750 right now. I can't do a TP scan on 14 cause the Quality wiould drop. Any suggestions?

I got everything setup now i need a little help with the dish configurations. Can someone explain a few things to me about TP scan, Down Freq, I don't understand the numbers Kavin posted up top.
How do i change the value of the transponder to pickup this channel(VTV4)? I know i have the right satellite, i checked lygsat and the channels up top are from the 97w bird.

Remember you must use a Linear LNB and in your setting LNB frequency must be set at 10.750 and not 11.250....
