Last night I as playing around with my dish trying to catch I-701 Ku Band.<br />To make long story short, that bird was too quick for me. <img src="http://www.delicaparts.com/Satellite/Smilies/S_Wink.gif" alt=" - " /> <br /><br />As soon as my roof cools down a bit, I'll give it another try. <img src="http://www.delicaparts.com/Satellite/Smilies/S_Sunnies.gif" alt=" - " /> <br /><br />I'm open for all suggestions... <img src="http://www.delicaparts.com/Satellite/Smilies/S_Cool.gif" alt=" - " />

I know that but as I said, I'm playing around. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" /> <br />I like the challenge so I wanna catch that bird just because it's not easy. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/default/grin.gif" /> <br /><br />I've been told that NSS-6 is tricky, but in my case, I-701 is really sneaky... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/default/shocked.gif" />

i used a 65cm for I701 took me about 2 hours but i set it up on the ground with box and tv in front of me so made things abit easier i found PAS8 first then moved abit more and abit lower and found I701

Also the LNB position is about the same position as were it sits when u have the dish on PAS8

Let's try <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" />

After you get a sig just twist it L and R to peak it in.

All done !<br />Picture Perfect <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/default/grin.gif" /> <br /><br />I've found it at the first shot using my 90 cm dish but I wanted to catch it with my little one, 65 cm dish and it took a while because signal was too weak and my SAT Finder made no sound at all <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/default/rolleyes.gif" /> <br /><br />Anyway, the bird is in the cage <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /> <br /><br />PS: LNB needed no change. Same position as on PAS-8 for max strength.
