How many channels??

How many 'entertainment' genre channels do you get in English,QSPK?? (This could be a long thread.)Thanks everyone.:thumbsup:

[Silverado]

You can check out Lyngsat or Sathint for a list of free channels in english. There are a lot more on C band than Ku band, but it's even better if you have both.

Thanks Silver,but I wanted to know what some members are actually getting.

Need to be a bit more specific as to entertainment channels bud. Also qpsk is just sd, did you mean s2/qpsk+8psk?

Thank you all!I guess I should have asked about sd channels with network type programs.
Will,everytime I go on Global's site I can't find any links to their info pages(such as the one you provided),only their products page.??
SatChick,thanks.Since Equity disappeared ther hasn't been much on ku to choose from.I wish I could get 72w.I think a 1m may be too small for 72 at my cocation,Lat 45.72,Lon -63.78.Lyngsat doesn't give that anymore.I'll try Dish Pointer.com.

A 1m dish for Amc 6 is more than sufficient, the Nbc Mux is a very strong tp. Most other type of net channels are found on c band sd and especially hd.

99w C-band has a full set of East Coast nets, and there are many feeds on the Ku side as well.

I tried to get it last year unsuccessfully.I started setting up my ku motor and had to switch to a SC 75E dish (26x36") because the 1M dish kept slipping when adjusting the elevation.I have 101,97,83 on it but it did not pickup 72 when I selectet it with the stb.I didn't have time to fine tune anything yet.we had a noreaster last week and its been rainy,windy and cold ever since.Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny but only about 6dC (42F).I have 82 on one of these,on that bassis should I be able to get 72??
