You don't need any files for get Galaxy 18 123.0W.

A old Star Choice dish can work for get this satellite.

LNB Freq. is 10750, don't need Hi or Low, if you don' t have the choice put 10750 on both.

Where you are located State or Province?
You will have problem to found it if you live in east.

Add this Tp: 11720 GHz V 27692

Use this utlity for help you and don't forget the skew which is very important on linear signal.

You are very far from this satellite, it will be very hard or impossible for you to get it
.

No this is the only one, the only solution is buy a new receiver or a 48" dish and get this satellite.


I know very well your area, I went to Shediac and Richibouctou in vacancy.

For my list of sats on the pansat iam not
sure which to use G-10 R/ku or G-10 R/C or is it another sat? USE G-10 R/ku

Make sure that you have a clear line of sight
to this Bird.
When pointing your Dish allow 5-10 seconds
between any movements of your Dish.
With the setting I have listed below you
should have no problem, if you do
you may want to try a new Linear LNB with a 36" Dish.

Settings for Galaxy 18 at 123.0°W from New Brunswick.

For Shediac you need this size of dish with dishpointer.com.

123.0W GALAXY 18 - North America 350-450cm dish size

But lyngsat give 95-120cm dish, I trust more lyngsat than dishpointer because I get many satellite which is listed out of range on Dishpointer.

Sats with /Ku are those you are looking, with a dish of unless 30" or 33"

The sats with /C are on C band you will need a bigger dish like 6 to 10 foot.

From your location your EIRP (dBW) could be 46 or 48
even if is 44 (90) cm 36'' will work, check it out.

DN sats are circular polarization ... FTA sats are linear polarization -
