My System: Intelsat 5. Standard KU .2db lnbf. 1meter antennae. Viewsat ultralite receiver |
Hi all. I'm in Jamaica & for the past week i've been looking to get the ,Amazonas 61.0 W sat. What equipment do i need to get this sat. I've been trying with a 6ft premier (metal plate) dish & a universal & a standard ku band LNB. I've managed to locate Intelsat9 58.0 W but i'm not getting anything to show but the preview channel. Two questions: What do i need to do to watch the channels on the 58 & what do i need to get a good signal on the 61 ? Also looking to get the Intelsat 707. Some interesting free channels on it. Would be nice to know what is required so i can go sat searching. Thanks in advance | ||

You're well outside of the Brazil beam, and would need a dish around 3m to receive the South America beam according to the maps. The C-band beam might be possible with your dish. Re: Intelsat 707. You should be able to get spot 2 beam (11632 V), but nothing more. | ||

My System: Intelsat 5. Standard KU .2db lnbf. 1meter antennae. Viewsat ultralite receiver | Thanks. I'm on the hunt for basically any sat i can find that'll give me a good mix of english channels. I'm working with 4, 5 & 6ft dish. Got Linear & circular LNBs. My main source went out recently & my subscription provider dont have some of the channels i've come to love. I'll be doing some reading around here. Thanks again. | ||
