Plymouth Iam begaining to believe that all the people that are bashing you are right about you. I don't see in this thread where justforhaha's bad mouth you. You show no respect calling the man an idiot. Someone here should report you to the Admin. Since you registered here you have cause nothing but trouble. Your kind is not needed here. So say grace and leave this place. Do you hear me now.
Bev has been playing with the channels all afternoon..many now are losing some channels,,,of course you know that Nim 4 is coming/here and 82 W is being affected...especially a much smaller footprint for its signals...today they make be doing some adjustment to that stream..
JOHNNY BOY: I think Plymouth is right in criticizing justforhaha's. For a newbie, she has been bashing and threshing and lying just to get her posts in and her post count up. Or maybe it is nothing to do with N3 ad ECMs, but an economic slowdown hitting Bell!!! Who knows?
Justforhahah, Plymouth, I thank you both for the help. Turning off the unit helped me. But I wanna let you guys know that I have lost signal from many many tps. That mean I have lost many channles.It can be either bev have narrow the fotprints of the sat or some thing else. By the way I'm in north california.
devin, as you can see the only person here that has the correct information is haha. The other two are just attack dogs that try to make everyone's life miserable.
Just ignore them and listen to haha, you might also might think of going to a site that these two idiots have been banned from and get your information without having to wade through the bashers B.S.
Devin try it for many USA user it work fine, you can't lose all tp with a new satellite who use Spot beam techology. I get all west spot again with any problem.

Bev: Bev did a number of things causing problems for some (not all) folks.
1) A month ago bev removed MECM handling from the stream. It is widely believed this was done in preparation for moving to Nagra 3.
2) 2 weeks ago they replaced Nimiq 2 with Nimiq 4. Nimiq 4 carried the same lineup as the old Nimiq 2 (on the same TP's), but significantly tightened the signal. If you are in Canada - this didn't effect you. Many folks in the US are no longer able to receive this satellite.
3) 1 week ago, Bev changed the priority of the streams on several channels. The old Nagra 2 signal was "downgraded" in priority, and the new nagra 3 stream was "upgraded" in priority. This caused problems with about 20% of the currently employed receivers (most notably CW's), but was quickly fixed by those with the issue.
4) As of this week, certain channels on the 82 Satellite have stopped providing Nagra2 streams, and provide only the newer Nagra3 streams. These channels are currently black on ALL testing methods. Currently this is limited to channels 781, 782 and a few 800 series HD channels.
Plymouth and haha, I tried every thing. I'm getting few channels only. That means, I may be wrong on this but it seems like that either those channels are under N3 streams or bev have narrowed the footprint of the sat. Also would like to mention here that tps for those channels showing no signal.I used to get strong signal from those tps but not any more. Anyway I thank you both for the great help.
Plymouth, I'm in north calif. Plymouth, Again, I'm 100 % sure that my dish aimed at the angle for months. Also let you know that, that isn't an issue here.For example tp#12224 has no Q.And it used be the strongest one. It must be ????
Plymouth...too much brie and wine...you told this guy to do the same thing as your new nemesis ( as if you were on his level)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Devin Do a hard reboot, load a old bin file, blind scan all satellites, load latest bin file.
Dont listen this idiot Hahaha with his hard reboot
Plymouth, I read some other sites. people telling they also lost signal from 12224. I don't know about their location. Seems like they must be from U.S. Cuz people within canada like ur self have no problem. I used to get 727.728.730. but no Q from respective channels tps any more. Plymouth, I think they just narrowed their signal. I really love 82's CBN. Anyway, I hope one day we will get them back. I'm greatful.
devin...if you have signal and quality at 55% or over, you should get a pic...go back to the basics and start over...reset and start from the beginning...don't now which box you have but its all the the same basically. so hard boot and system reset, old bin may have been corrupted...load latest for your box and rescan sats...

FRIENDS ....I agree with hahah...bev have tightened the footrint of nimiq2 AKA nimiq 4. It is kind of end of the road for us. I used to have many many channels from this sat.But since nimiq 4 came in the picture I have lost many channels.For example,when I press MENU and dish settings I don't see 82 on the right side of the screen. Soon as I changed the tp from 12224 to 12239. 82 pops up on the top right side of the screen. I never had this issue for years. It started happening since nimiq4 came .I again thank you every one.
devin If you can test with a bigger dish or have a friend with it, it can be interesting to know how Nimiq 4 lost signal level and how big user need for recover 82W
Plymouth, I do have 36" dish,but never used it cuz I was getting those channels which I was interested in. But nimiq 4 really forcing me use it. Lets see if that helps. Ply, do you really think big dish can help ??? I heard that bev subs few places in canada were having difficulties getting signal from nimiq 2 with 18" dish. If bev have really narrowed the signal whats gonna happen to them.That wonders me.

What he meant to say was: Didn't effect the honest people of Canada. (paid customers)
Ply..mouth You are saying that a 36" can help to get 82", Well I know that you didn't do any testing on this 36" Dish since Devin lives in North part of California and you claim to live in Quebec, Canada.
Before this nice person waste his time and money could you show him how you know this will work with the 36" Dish.
Friends, (W.H) I think plymouth always have been helpful. But I thank you for your info. I do have the 36" dish. There won't cost me any thing to try it ,But certainly it require time and concentration. But I wanted to make sure if n3 stream isn't causing all this mess ??? I will certainly miss bev.
My next dish could be a 4' for get more Free to Air
I forget to say i have a big tree btw my dish and 119W, now the leafs are fallen, in summer i can't get any channels. Taday i get 254 channels on 119W, i am not able to get Anik F3 with my QPH-031.
I think main current question was - will increasing the Dish size help? It seems extremely unlikely in California, and very likely in Colarado. Thight conus extend to North Carolina - Colardo Looking at the map it would seem likely to be valid for North California, but without trying you will not know.
Plymouth, After a great discussion, mostly everyone was in favour of trying bigger a dish. So, I will, but need few days. I will keep posted about the progress. Thank you evey one.

KINGSVILLE......... Atleast you don't have any right to say "don't waste time on this person" When you can't help, you should not stop others to help me. No one have asked me why I being in the U.S interested in canadian sat.But I dont, any obligation to answer u r question,but I will do anyway. I like their CBN. now don't say We have zeesprot. There is no camparison between these two. When CBN showing any game it shows every bit of it without interuption,zeesprt breaking up by showing stupid ads. They do also have ATN which showing almost all starplus and star one programming.Here in the U.S we need to have bigger dish to get those. NDTV is another exmaple. Anyway, I can't afford to waste my time answering your question anymore.
