Does anybody know if Sony is still working on Nimiq2? Also, whats the best trick in positioning Nimiq1 & Nimiq2? I tried my best and I could only align either Nimiq1 or Nimiq2, noth both at the same time. I have pro quad LNB.
Globecast on Intelsat 5 at 97 W. I have never looked at these channels. I have inquired with somebody who confirms that he is not getting Globecast, but could not tell me the TP he was using. The following is a list of Globecast TPs. You will notice that some are supposed to be "Clear" i.e. not encrypted, but are showing with DVB encryption. Other TPs are showing as encrypted. I am posting the list below, and I am sure others would comment on this issue.

There is NO NEW BIN yet. There was major change in the software inside your receiver on or about the 9th June, 2006. This is known as the BIN. If your receiver has a BIN from around that time, you have the best that is currently available. On or about 21st June, 2006, there were further problems, and this latest BIN is not working for International channels and for PPV and Adult channels. You should NOT TRUST any BIN that is dated after 21st June, 2006, unless you are sure you have the expertise to recover from a catastrophe after uploading it. Recovery form such a catastrophe is well documented in this other threads and in other forums.
For international channels, there is a PARTIAL solution if you point to Intelsat 5 (97 W). The channels you get there are what the normal free Government channels are in those countries. The channels are true FTA and you not likely to suffer from security changes implemented by DN and/or BEV. Most people are using 36' dishes for these. You may also be able to point to AMC 16 (118.8 W, same as Echo 7) with your 18-20' dish and get these channels. Adjust the tilt. You might need a special LNB, otherwise the signal will be weak.
A new BIN is imminent according to some reliable reports. Before you use it, make sure that it is from a reliable source and has been tested.
If you read this and other threads there is PLENTY OF INFORMATION on how to select and upload a new BIN for free. If your BIN is older than the 9th June version, you may do this now to get some channels. The usual fee charged by small FTA shops and hobbyists to do this job is $20-$30, and will probably be the same when a new BIN is released.
There is another hardware solution using the old type Card receivers. If you have a new ROM 102 in it, it gives about 100% of the channels now. The usual charge for such a ROM102 card is $60-$100. The card receiver is extra.
Neither of the two solutions is permanent. A need to upload a new BIN or to buy a new ROM card can arise AT ANY TIME. When changes are implemented by DN or BEV, the fix may take any length of time. The last fix took 9days (1-9 June). This fix has taken 24 days so far and is still not available.
There are NO NEW KEYS For the people who are looking for keys, the following keys are the current keys and have not changed in the recent past.
