Hello,

I am able to barely get HD04 and HD05 on 125W, Galaxy 30, which I have only gotten recently. So far I have not found the main PBS transponder nor Montana PBS. Are these two transponders still casting a decent SNR on 125W?

PBS main: 12180V...

MSNBC HD, CNBC World HD, USA and possibly others FTA. However, I could only lock them with my 12 foot dish from tek2000 and Zgemma. You need a s/n of almost 18 dB to get them. I had to fine tune the dish and frigid cold weather...

Hello,

C-SPAN, C-SPAN2 and C-SPAN3 are in the clear in 1920 x 1080 resolution at:

Galaxy 30 125W
3981V
16300 SR
DVB-S2
8PSK

These stations should always be in the clear.

Cheers,

Galaxy 30 has replaced Galaxy 14 at orbital slot 125W. It was fired up this morning and I am getting almost 1 dB more signal gain on most transponders! :mrgreen:

Hello,

Showtime transponder on 125W is currently running ITC. Perhaps a free preview due to covid-19? Many thanks.

Some of you may have spotted this one already, but well worth scanning into your stbs. It scans in as 'WGN Itinerant' and seems to be some kind of movies feed for WGN America. Usually color bars until the next movie starts playing....

12180 V 30000

It scans in as SD09 and appears to be WGBX from Boston.
