Does anyone here have a Motorized Dish system Using the Invacom QPH-031 and a Digiwave DGL 1189S LNB? I can't seem to scan in all the channels on Anik F3. Iam using this bracket for the Digiwave LNB.
Thanks plymouth But not the answer I was looking for. I have visted other sites and all are saying the same thing the QPH-031 will not work on Anik F3. I have tried it using only the QPH-031 I did picked up one tp. Maybe you didn't understand my question. I have attached the DGL 1189S with the bracket as I have posted above I scan in most of the channels on Anik F3 but not all.
I was hoping to find someone that has tested this type of installation using a Invacom QPH-031 and the special LNB for Anik F3 attached adjacent to the QPH-031 and tell me what am I doing wrong
King Arthur Give me one good reason why it not work. It not work if you try 0n 119 but try with 118,8 in Circular mode LNB freq 10750, do a blind scan. Which receiver you use for it? I use Viewsat Ultra and it work!
King Arthur If you want use digiwave go in satellite menu and modify 119 sat for 109 and turn your bracket for put the LNB as near is possible of QPH-031. But this solution is a patch, surely you can lose signal because this dish give a stronger signal directly on its holder.
Yo should be able to add a second LNB and assign to DISEqC port First LNB can be set to DISEqC 1.2 or USAL Second LNB set to DISEqC 1.1 or 1.0 port-2 If yor FTA receiver supports DISEqC all protocol
Another way to do it using 22K SW Yo turn OFF tone to Invacom ON to the other LNB
In North America: Circular polarity Ku sats use TP Freqs 12200 to 12700 Linear polarity Ku sats use TP Freqs 11700 to 12200
This is what your QPH-031 LNB is setup for.
DN's new 118w sat is the only one of its kind, and DN had to come out with a totally new LNB to use this sat. 118w uses circular polarity BUT linear TP Freqs 11700 to 12200.
So on your QPH-031 LNB you would use an "L" port to "see" this TP range but because its circular polarity the "L" LNB can not get all the TPs.
You need a special LNB just for this one sat, there is no "one LNB" that can get all sats now, no matter what you see advertised, lol, the invacom QPH-031 could get all sats before 118w was launched.
The CB2008 LNB is circular polarity and can "see" linear TP Freqs, as well as the DN 118/119 combo LNB found on the dish500+ and dish1000+ setups. Some put up a separate dish just for 118w, others add the CB2008 LNB next to their QPH-031.
After many test and research, i can say to you""""You are right"""" I cant get all Tp on 118.75W. I tested the circular 10750 lnb(friend) and get all Tp. You give me a good reason for buying one. I always thinking that is because i am far. Sorry
It work on side of the QPH-031
Here is the picture of installation
I have made a bracket in solid plastic and s.s. bolt
I changed the degree in Motor Usals 118.7W for 107.2 in accord with the space btw 2 LNBs
I don't agree about Circular or Linear LNBs It's a combination between frequency and gain Is the main reason can't get all TPs
LNBF has an internal orthogonal antenna And antenna is just an antenna Limited by the frequency span and amplification gain Where yo live and size of dish is another factor Circular polarity comes spinning it doesn't require skewing Linear polarity must be tilted to face orthogonal polarity 2 wires One Vertical, other Horizontal Circular polarity is still Vertical and Hrizontal polarities
Yo always gonna have variance from one LNB to another It even differs from one receiver to another based on yor tuner capability
Just for the record King Arthur c/p is an echo to what I said in many different threads Finally members beginning to understand it What I'm saying here people will repeat in different forums and at the end is gonna echo back on this forum I spent my life on Data Communication electronics It's not much different from Telecommunication electronics Basics are the same
So believe me when I say Circular or Linear no major difference Only frequency and gain and quality of LNB makes the difference
