These channels are moving over from satellite 125 West (though they are still on there too), as that satellite nears it's end of life. FTA satellite TV is also a great supplement for OTA television channels. If you don't receive a lot of television channels with a TV antenna, an FTA satellite dish can add to your channel selection.

Just stumbled onto your channel. Brings back memories. Some time around 1990, maybe +/- a year or two, when I was a young adult, my dad took a huge aluminum framed mesh dish (I do believe it was 12 ft diameter) and receiver in trade for some race engine machine shop work. I thought it was a fun science project learning how to mount, set up, and align the dish to track satellites. He welded up the big pole to mount the dish on (8 ft above ground and 4 ft below). And my job was to dig the hole, set it in concrete from bags, and get it perfectly vertical. It was like setting up a radio telescope. The dish was made in quite a few trapezoidal shaped sections that bolted together. The central mount and tilt mechanism was a beast made of steel. My dad had a small farm tractor with a fork lift, that we used to lift it onto the pole, then the dish sections bolted onto it. Learning about celestial navigation and getting the dish tilt axis aligned with the earth's axis was totally fun for me. We had an open Southern sky East to West, so we could get a lot of satellites from our Willamette Valley Oregon location. I remember spending a day looking at channels from a Japanese satellite. Good memories watching movies with dad. C-band was still going and K-band was on the way to replacing it.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing your experience with C-band! Here’s my dishes!

Am located in South Central Idaho. Over the winter collected from Electronica, 39" dish, with several LNBs, from other sources, an Amiko Mini 4k and a GT Media V8 Finder Pro. All of these were purchased new. Began setting things up about a month ago, first at my cabin 100 miles north of here and again down here in the city last week. The "39" inch dish, once opened up and assembled, it turns out to be 34 x 36 1/2. Per your advice, looked at buying larger than smaller. Too late to complain about my purchase at this point. Have used Satellite Pointer on Iphone to spot the targets as well as watching most of all your videos. Great work on your part, you are a great educator. I have been able to process this new hobby pretty well with all your information. However, working from SES2 over to SES3, a good, unrestricted portion of the sky I have available to me, including Galaxy 16, have concluded that I am disappointed. For example, Galaxy 16, not unlike other satellites "tested", only two channels of BVN TV, signal level 99%, Quality 73% comes through. That is all, no audio channels, no other video. Would be open to questions on your part. Possibly, larger dish, you have mentioned moving up to four feet. Still, would think I would "collect" more transponders than I do. Thank you in advance for your advice.
As far as I know BVN is on 116.8 West KU band. 99 West is east of that satellite. The dish you have should be just fine for KU. I would work on aiming the dish again.
Move the dish slowly, even a millimeter can make a big difference. Check azimuth, elevation, and skew. Run a blindscan after every adjustment you make.

Double check the LNB frequency in your receiver setup menu. It needs to match the LNB’s oscillator frequency on the label.

Often dishes are sold with nominal measurements. I’ve bought dishes like that before too, but the dish you have is sized decently for KU Band. I’m receiving 99 West with a 33” dish.
I hope this helps a bit. Thanks for reaching out, let me know if you have more questions.
@@NorthcoasterHobby Thank you for the quick response. Will be much more patient. Have tried to move the dish slowly to set. Will run more Blind Scans to confirm each setting. The V8 tool seems much less sensitive than the Amiko. Have them both hooked up at the same time, on separate lines from the LNB. Looking at a photo we happened to take of the Amiko INFORMATION screen. Reads: Satellite ---- 99.2W Galaxy 16 --- Channel --- BVN_TV_NTSC . At that point, should have gone back out on the deck, moved the dish a bit and rescanned. Was under the false impression, if you have one video channel from one transponder , with a high reading, good chance of getting all of them. You do... after some more careful adjustments and Blind Scans.
@@steveholm6948 Let me know if you have any other questions.👍
Thank you for the update. 125W was never a really strong satellite for me either. Time to go out and reposition my dedicated dish.
Nice to see Montana PBS on a slightly better transponder. Keep up the good videos.
Thank you!
Nice to find fta
I figured it would be worth asking, have you ever used an orthomode LNB setup for FTA? Being that it's winter time I want to try putting together an FTA setup. I have a dish, I believe a skyware global brand 1 meter. I did a little research and it has some kind of waveguide attached to the arm but no LNB's. I guess from my reading this is a dual polarity orthomode setup? Maybe i'm wrong. Just wondering if a modern receiver would work with some LNB's if I bought them or if it would be easier to just buy an LNBF with 13 / 18v switching. Thanks for any help.
Sounds like an orthomode setup. It’s probably easier and more cost effective to just buy an LNBF. Simple setup and with auto-polarity switching.
nice.
When you're setting the altitude, do you use the back of the satellite where the LNB "arm" is supported or is there some other way to make certain the altitude is positioned correctly?

Usually there is a scale on the back to adjust the elevation angle of the dish. Though small adjustments will have to be made.
I am from Pakistan. I am also a dish satellite fitter.
I'm just learning about FTA. Is there an app or website that tells one what satellites they can receive at their location?
@@brendanb1541 These websites have a listing of radio and TV channels available on each satellite:
www.lyngsat.com/america.html
www.tvrosat.com/cgi-bin/portal_charts.cgi
A good site to use to find dish parameters for specific satellites from your location is Dishpointer.
www.dishpointer.com
Enter your location, select the satellite you want to receive, and it generates a report with the correct aiming parameters for your location.
Keep in mind that channel availability can change without notice. That’s just part of the hobby.
Thanks for visiting my channel. Feel free to use my videos as a resource.👍
im just getting into this hobby trying to figure the cheapest way to get started.
❤️❤️
Good work.
I want to know what are the features of H265 receiver?

Can you teach us, how to user CCCAM service with FTA receiver
Where do you find these satellite dishis? (I have bad signal with my indoor anntena)
eBay is where I get most of my equipment.
@NorthcoasterHobby quick qustion: is it possible to use an old cable tv dish for satlite TV (my cable dish is bulid like a galaxy dish)
@@Thecoolestboy_101 It can be used if it has a linear LNB on it. But most dishes have circular LNBs.
faascinating.
I'm curious what the process is for watching random feeds that pop up. Do these channels suddenly appear in the guide or will they be invisible until you've completed another scan?
When feeds are active they will appear after a blindscan.
@@NorthcoasterHobby Do feeds tend to pop up on the same channels? Seems like it would get tedious if you need to keep scanning in order to catch a random feed.
@@ignatiusgrippa Re-scanning is part of the hobby!
Haha! I hear ya. @@NorthcoasterHobby

👍couldn't get in the SOO area ...except infowars ....PBS mux coming in now 75%power now
PBS mux is coming in now?
i havent seen infowars yet on the sat what time is it usualy on?
@@planca3430 It’s a channel- always on there.

montanna pbs comes in fine here in Texas
Excellent, glad to hear.👍
I am in the UK and would love to get Galaxy 16 coverage is it possible?
Is there any way to receive Jeopardy I'm 65 miles north or Orlando
The TV show? It’s not on FTA satellite to my knowledge. Have you considered putting up a TV antenna? I’d look into it. There are many local broadcast stations that can be received with an antenna. No monthly bill.

@@NorthcoasterHobby Yes, I just put up the 5 star antenna about a week ago & can get the local channels but the ABC channel up by Gainesville is awful & no Jeopardy. I got to pull it from Oralado I just got rid of $83 a month YT tv for hurricane season. I am going to try the satellite
@@travisraycole An antenna model like the Televes Ellipse Mix might be worth looking into for your reception situation. It is more expensive but is highly regarded and has a lot of excellent features.

As far as FTA satellite, channels come and go, but there’s some interesting stuff out there too.
Best wishes.
Thank you, I'll check that one out.
Hello Sir can you Tell me about your Location
Canada.
Why don’t you use integrated tuner in tv but use these bricks…? (Most tvs have the integrated dvb-s2 tuners)
In North America the TV’s do not have built-in satellite tuners. We have to use a set top box for satellite.
@@NorthcoasterHobby Wow, that is interesting...
