Geosatpro C1PLL LNBF - C-BAND vs BSC 421

(1/3) > >>

Pyro:
I picked up a Geosat pro C1PLL LNBF - C-BAND  from Dr Sat the other day, I had been looking to see if a PLL LNBF would do better than my BSC421 C-Band LNBF ( also from Dr SAT ) on my true 1M dish.  I haven't been able to scan any new Tps as of yet( still testing ) but I have noticed better stability and a slight increase in Signal on the Tps I do get. Maybe someone that has a bigger dish getting the S2 signals may notice more of a difference ? Anyhow here is what I can get located just West of Toronto using an Openbox S9

91W
3720 H 28800 @ 10 % locks in/out = S2 ?

Jorgek:
Impressive with a 1M dish!

Pyro:
also picked up 2 CBS channels on 95W @ 4167 V 6614 @ 70%

I'm sure the BSC421 LNBF would have also got this TP as well just had never tried.

I wish I had a bigger dish but sometimes you just have to work with you got 

DrSat:
That 4167 transponder can be a bit tricky to receive on the BSC421 but it can be done.

The real test is to try and receive the 4060 V 28346 and 4100 V 28346 transponders on 107.3W. Can barely get these on the BSC421 after tweaking the focal depth and conical scalar ring placement so it should be a bit better with the C1PLL.

Mind you, this is off a 1.2m dish so it may not be possible at all on a 1m.

Pyro:
I put the BSC421 back on for fun and was able to scan a few more new TPs listed below. I tried for 4060 V 28346 and 4100 V 28346 on 107.3 but the best I could do was get better signal on tp 3807 v 6500 got it from 40% to 60% but nothing else new came in on that sat.

91w
3720 V 38800 now able to lock in at 28%
4076 V 3000 @45%

123w
4160 V 39270 @ 49%

Any other suggestions on some Tp to try ? What are you getting on your 1.2m Dr?
