Fantastic job Fabiano CT7ABD. Elmer's Wanted, I am ready to make the final connections to my station after months of hard work. So much hard work and U$D that I don't want to let the smoke out of the box inadvertently tho I am keeping the halon extinguisher handy.Seems a shame to go this far and be reluctant to plug it in. Equipment is as follows: HP AMD 64 Pavilion with windows vista business 2.4 meter dish mounted on 8 foot tower section, with az and el rotors and home brew 12 turn 2.4GHz helical at focal point. Model 2400 High Siera HamTV-Down Converter TBS-8920 PCI-DVB-S and S2 TV Tuner Card.......got the technotrend from Europe but had to send it back as it was defective. If this happens to you don't use US mail system. TBS-8920 is running on Media Portal - TVServer Software.
Questions or settings: What DIsEQC, What KU-band..circular..universal..stacked..legacy...custom What override default lnb freq.... LOF1........mhz, LOF2 ....mhz What Switch LMBSw.......mhz Freqency ........mhz Symbol rate.... Polirization...none,h, v, or circular..left or right Inner FEC Rate....in fractions Pilot, on, off, not set, not defined Roll off... not set, not defined, .20, .25, .35 The DVB-S should also be able to power the down converter via the DISeQC but what one.. Simple a, simple b, Level 1aa, Level 1ab, Level 1ba, Level BB, or none Any help requested would be appreciated. If you must blast please off the amsat site..use KB3PMR@gmail.com. Show up and make it work and I will cook the steak. I would offer valuable gifts and prizes but but I need to save up for domestic abuse claims by being preoccupied with this for the last 4 month.

Great Bob!
Out of curiosity, what is your az/el rotor?

12 turns for the 2.4 ghz feed sounds a bit long. What is the focal distance for the dish?
