RE: 60 cm shaw elliptical sat. dish
"With all of that said, you can't do any harm by giving it a try. You will first have to craft a mounting device as I don't believe they are the same.
If you give it a try, let us know how it comes out. "

RE: SL5 ELEVATION Issue/Question
I stand by my original statement.
SL3 settings
SL5 settings
The DirecTv 3 LNB reading you have is for a DirecTV Phase III dish, an older dish which sees satellites at 101, 110, and 119. A Phase III dish points differently from an SL3 or SL5 because it points at a satellite at 110 degrees.
An SL3 dish sees 99, 101, and 103. An SL5 sees 99, 101, 103, 110 and 119. Both an SL3 and an SL5 point at the same satellite: 101 and point in identical locations - at 101.
I NOW stand by my original post - compare apples with apples??

RE: Is there such a thing as a HD portable dish for Direct TV
King controls made a VuQube 2000 which we have and it will receive HD programing from the 101 and 119 satellite. We love our VuQube and I think there are still a few out there on the market. Not sure why they discontinued this model, so easy to use and set up and only takes about 2 minuets to lock on to satellites and receive full programming, We always camp around alot of trees so having the portable for us works well............
There are no HD channels on 101 or 119
HD now days is on 97 &103 which requires a different LNB

RE: Bell's New coverage Map
Gee, don't I even get credit for building the map?
Thanks for posting. We tried to get it in Conneticut three weeks ago with no joy. We are now in Palm Springs with expected results. We made the shut down call last week. Looking into options now. It sounds like Star Choice will be doing the same in a few years so thats out. Maybe Dish but not sure how far their coverage goes into Canada.
Just for your info I have gotten both Direct & dish network from your Swanlake Rec Resort in Vernon with no problem-

RE: Mice
Read this in todays news
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/story/2012/10/26/mb-hantavirus-121026.html?cmp=rss
In this province if you get mice in trailer or motorhome it is written off by insurance-no longer safe to live in!

RE: Motosat
Some of your on screen guides come on one of those channels as well as many locals.
Presume you mean satellites
If you have a line of site to the other birds you will also have line of site to the 110 and 119.
I have never had a problem with not getting those 2 . I either get them all or nothing.
Thats correct with Winguard system you need all of them for the SL5 LNB to lock on or you don't get anything (22º spacing verses 6º for the SL3 lnb) also Winguard is not available in SWiM
When you change your setup on the receiver it changes where your screen guide comes from with SL3 it comes from 101 With SL5 it comes from 119
If the RFmogul is no cheaper just what is the advantage. The people who are behind that system are the same engineers that designed the Motosat system. Bad engineering .
I cannot comment on this as I am not Qualified to determine advantage or disadvantages of both Mfg systems
