another monoblock another dish - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

Just got another monoblock exactly the same as the last one but free (thats the price I like to pay)

Is there another combination of satellites I will be able to use this on with a 60cm dish? I realise they have to be 6 degrees apart but how much leeway is there if any?

I suppose you could use it for Eutelsat W1 (10e) and W2 (16e)

Maybe Hispasat (30w) and Intelsat 905 (24.5w). Although i dont think theres much on 24.5w.

Dont know how much luck you would have though :?

1W and 5E?

Hey, this is a good game!

Should be OK. You can get away with half a degree on each sat.

yep yer right stick this is a good game

and that is my weekend sorted as the pub is a no go this weekend due to a severe lack of Liquid funds just hope this wind has dropped by then.

Yes, I found that repeated weekend drinking gave me wind too

For the 1st time ever at this house I have managed to find 1 degree west and 5 degrees east

Not all transponders granted but its a start. The flags on my patio look like a grafitti artists dream

Cool 8)

Some of the TPs on 1W are relatively weak here in the UK.

jontydog · 25-09-06, 07:10 PM

Noticed that m8 only got a few channels on 1W and 5E and none of em would clear with progdvb.

BGonaSTICK · 25-09-06, 10:29 PM

No, Conax on 1W and NDS on 5E are secure these days.

1W used to be wide open (a weak card issue which sprung a leak), and was one of my favourite packages as it had some of the Discovery channels in English :'(

Still, the fact is that you had it working.

There are a few good feeds to be had off these birds.

Rumours of Conax being reopened have been bouncing around ever since screens went black nearly two years ago if memory serves.
