i have a 30" dish with a sg2100 motor for the dish and invacom guad polar (cir/lin) dual lnbf- once you have a clear veiw of the southern sky to get the most sat on the clark belt all ku on this setup. The sat is a linar sig and if you go to dishpoiter. com and put in your location it will give you an idea if you got a clear view and a compass will help you can use lyngsat.com for active tp"s.What set up are you using now if you have a motor and a reciever what are they? The sig are a little weak on that sat and if your in calf. in the souhtern part i see no problem getting sig. i am in az and use a 30 " and and hit about 20 sats

I dont have a motor i'm using a CS 5000 right now I'm pointing at 101 amc and i'm in S Cali , so if you know the whole set up lnb frequecy and so on that would be nice thanks

in your sat menu this was galaxy 10@123.0w now it is gal 28 @ 123.0w the lnb freq is 10750 lnb is standard it is liner sat.go on lyndsat for tp's that are up and running . tp 11719 11805 are up you have to turn that dish to the east. if you get sig on amc 4 @101.0w you should get 123. but the sig is weak so it will take very little movement to hit and miss

What i have is a little tv(because my dish is on roof) 13" and i take tv & reciever to roof or where ever dish is and set it up next to the dish and fine tune the dish that way.I use the tv as a sat. finder. The 30 " dish took a few hours to set up with the motor and the little tv worked great ( got it at goodwill $5.00 good sat finder) and the 2, 18" dish ar stationary. You should think about getting a motor you have the right dish for you location? i put a sg2100 motor on. it sounds like you azmuth and elevation are close with 101 being hit.

lnb standard lnb freq 10750 the sat is linear if useing switch port 1 and set diseqc to port 1...11800 tp not working on my set.. tp 11720 dfreq vertcal pol 27.690 sr is up your lnb seems like it is working sig strength go to dishpointer.com to get more settings it took me 4 days to set it up and fine tune it. lyngsat.com will help with active tp and you might have to put tp in by hand then blind scan when you get an active tp and it fiond tp automaticlly

Seems like 123w petered out,I can't get the retro channels from equity broadcasting anymore.
I tried 3 different receivers on a motorized setup.

I have not been on 123w for a while and you are right that tp 11798 is weak and not sure whats going on.I think my dish is ok because yesterday i got the philly world series parade on live feeds on Amc5 @79.0w there was 5 live feeds going and Galaxy 28@89.0w 2 live feeds.And living in arizona for the last 10 yrs. and growing up in philly it was a good treat to see about 4 hrs of coverage.As of now it was and is still worth the time testing and little money over the last 10 yrs.The best coverage ever all with 33" dish and a motor, keep testing different sat and blind scans and you will get some thing that makes it all worth it.
