telestar 12, 15W

[heavyd1981]

hey Guys,

anyone have telestar 12 - 15W set up? if so, what's the max quality you're able to find on what size dish?

Msnbc channel is the strongest of all tp, scans in at 99% signal quality on both my 6' and 10'. Signal strength should not be less than 80% on a 36" dish.

you think a 33' will work here in toronto?

[Costactc]

It should work but your quality may be a bit low on several of the tp and your definitely not to far west for 15w. I'm in Cornwall and I can go as low as 8w.

sweet. thanks dude.

I'll use a 36''. and test my luck.

i hear it has to be pointed S.E. i was thinking of my garage, and house is about 40feet away from garage.
you think it will get in the way?


How's TP 11964 H? whats your Q like?

[Costactc]

Thats the tp that has:

Erta
Sptv
Tpai
Bulgarian National

High quality signal leve but that's on one of my big boys, I don't remember how it was on my 36" but I know I was scanning it in.

I won't get around to it today but I will keep it in mind the next time I'm on T12.

39 inch dish here in Orlando and 40-45% Qon TP 11964H

A 30+" dish should be plenty big, according to the Satbeams site in the Toronto area a 23.5" dish is considered good enough on that satellite.

The Toronto Ca. area is actually in a very strong spot of its footprint.

sweet, thanks guys. i'm going to try with my 33 in. keep you guys posted when done.
