Subject: Ku SCPC Question
From: Paul Johnson <pjohnson@AOC.NRAO.EDU>
Date: Tue, 5 Jan 1993 12:06:41 MST
Comments: Gated by NETNEWS@AUVM.AMERICAN.EDU

I have noticed two interesting groups of SCPC signals on
a couple of Ku-band birds.

Spacenet 3:
Norfolk Virginia area stations

  11,862.9 MHz  WFOG 92.9
  11,864.9 MHz  WJQI 94.9  Joy 95
  11,865.7 MHz  WLTY 95.7
  11,867.3 MHz  WGHF 97.3  Eagle 97
  11,868.7 MHz  WNOR 98.7

ASC 1:
Portland Oregon area stations

  11,845.7 MHz  KGON  92.3
  11,844.3 MHz  KPDQ  93.7
  11,842.5 MHz  KXL   95.5  K95.5
  11,840.9 MHz  KISS  97.1
  11,837.7 MHz  KKIZ 100.3  Z100
  11,836.9 MHz  KUFO 101.1
  11,836.1 MHz  KINK 101.9
  11,834.7 MHz  ?    103.3  To weak to ID

They are all much weaker then typical SCPC signals. None are noise
free on my system (8 ft. dish/.8 db LNB), and most I can barely hear.
There is a larger then usual (for SCPC) variation in signal strength
between stations that can change by the hour.

I have noticed a few unusual things about these SCPC signals. They are
in multiplex stereo and there is a direct relationship between their
frequency on the FM band and their frequency on the satellite.

Apparently a portion of the FM broadcast band is being converted to
14 Ghz and uplink to the satellite. Does anyone have any idea who is
doing this and why? Is it even intentional?

You could always settle for a cheap stationary dish pointed at G5.  The dish
can be (relatively) small and doesn't require concrete/wood mounts.

I know I have posted this message a long time ago---But My dad is again
interested in purchasing a dish system.

First---Could someone send me the FAQ for this group?  Thanks!

Second--  A couple of months ago, my dad was interested in buying a satellite dish system.  That interest died out and came back strong when the cable bill went up again.   I just want some owners of systems inputs so I can show my dad how
happy people are with their systems.  I want to print the messages out and show them to his own very eyes.  Also--can someone give me an Idea of what price to pay for a system?  I got some mail oreder catalogs--And there is just so much stuff to decide --- We want not a plain joe system---but not one that has every bell and whisle.  I got the impression that 1500 dollars would get a middle of the line system.  I know I'm asking a lot but one more thing.  How much would a package cost to receive most of the


 channels that basic cable gives you?

If you couldnt tell--I want my dad to buy one of these systems--So any input(Honest--not just the good things) would be greatly appreciated.  I know I'm asking so many questions, but I figured this is where I would get "Hands On" replies!
thanks so much in advance

Subject:      Debunking the G5 Rumor

Well folks, after a LOT of phone time and fax time, not only do I have an
answer, but I now have an inside line to Hughes Communications, so perhaps
there is something good that came from the unfounded rumor broadcast on FNL
by a caller this past week.

To sum up:  G5 is DEFINATELY NOT MOVING.  Yes there are problems with
crosstalk.

I want to thank a LOT of folks here on USENET and also on the GEnie network
for their help in tracking this thing down.  From the first call, though, I
was pretty convinced that the rumor was false, and actually pretty insane.

This is why I chuckled when the woman called upset about the possible loss of
the Sci Fi channel based upon what she heard on another show.  Live radio
being what it was, I laughed and said she was listening to the wrong program.
At least from the standpoint of verifiable Clarke Belt News, it turns out she
was, though I should have never said something like that on the air.  There
is room for ALL of us up there who do talk shows.  BUT perhaps this event
will at least help the reporters and callers to Howard's programs to double
check their info before putting anything out on the air.

I do plan to appologise though for my unfortunate slip of the tongue
regarding Howard's show.  I think many of his associates are doing a great
job, especially Sue from Missouri.

ANYWAY FOLKS:  Rest easy.  G5 is staying put.  This comes from Hughes
Engineering.  They should know.

G4 is scheduled to replace G6 in either April or May.  G6 will then migrate.
However, at this point things get a little hazy.  Unfortunately I have
garbled text in a key message re G6, and am waiting for a resend of that
portion of the message.

One of my contacts said there *IS* a lot of flux in what bird is going where,
set up by the G1R loss.

I will have more, and perhaps an interview with someone from Hughes on this
week's FRIDAY NIGHT LIVE, S3/21 5.8 audio 9PM to Midnight EST.

The change is supposed to include the VC-II program info screen, too, so the
end user deals with the satellite as the same designator everywhere. I don't
know if uplinkers of syndicated material not intended for home viewing will
acknowledge the change or not. Time will tell.

Paraclipse sells a rear arm and empty box for their dishes. You bolt
the box to the arm and the arm to the back of the dish and the fill the
box with concrete.  I have one on my 12 ft dish. It doesn't totally
balance the dish but it helps.  I suspect the reason most dishes don't
have it is cost.

i happened to surf past satellkitecity and they were selling the
chapparal 90 for about $1300 and said that they were offering the new 95
model for only $99 more. 

they said the 95 has a feature called videomax (i think) which improves
the picture by 25%. is this true? [i bought a 90 in sept. annd would hate
to think that i missed out by three months on getting a much improved
picture].  i thought i recalled reading that the 'tests' done by sat city
consist of a bunch of guys at their place looking at the equipment and
just giving their unscientific opinion. ie., they don't actually do lab
tests or anything 'scientific' and they make up numbers to sell their
products.


also, does anyone know the real facts on the differences between the
50/55 and the 90/95?

The January edition of the German satellite magazine INFOSAT prints an answer
from BSkyB to a German person that wrote a letter to them, asking why they 
would encrypt SKY ONE and SKY NEWS and if they know that there is a significant
amount of watchers outside of the U.K.
	The answer was that they are aware of non-U.K. watchers but they are
not a pan-European news channel - their focus is on the U.K. and Eire; for their
movie channels they buy movies only with rights to broadcast those in U.K. and
Eire and therefore are not able to accept subscribers from other countries.
	However they said, they've currently NO PLANS to encrypt SKY ONE and
SKY NEWS, but they cannot promise this to stay forever. 

The letter was dated beginning of December 1992 (I think).

From all the mail received there seem to be a number of people who
want to build one of these things (no suprise). Although its a complex
task to wire wrap one of these beasts because the three main chips
involved are ~100 pin surface mount things its still doable if you
are careful. What you first want to do is get a hold of the
VIDEO DATA HANDBOOK from Signetics (Philips Semiconductors). My book
has a 1991 date on it, there is already a 1992 version out. Starting
on page 2-54 talk is about the Evaluation board which does 99.995%
of what you need done. To the gentelman from Cypress Semiconductor
who asked how much buffer ram the answer is 8Mbit. The current design
uses 8 TMS4C1050 Dram FIFO's. Other parts can be probably used however.
In addition to that you will need the following set of parts
TDA 8709, TDA 8708, SAA 7151, SAA 7197, 3X TDA 8702 and a pcf 8582
(and a way to program it). The rest is some ttl glue and a few transistors.
Total cost of parts is less than $300. The modification to the sync
generator is well quite simple...

With all the people asking for ways to combine signals I thought
that I would throw in my solution to the problem. First though
a splitter (2 3 or 4way) can also be used as a combiner, as it
is a "linear" device (in contrast a mixer is a non linear device
ment go generate sidebands).

My broadcast antenna is connected to a channel 4 trap (Star circuits
LV) and then to a 10 db amplifier (the radio shack 19.95 kind). In my
area there is enough interference such that the channel 4 trap is
mandatory. My ird is connected to a 42db amplifier. The two amps are
now combined with a 2 way splitter. The output of this splitter is
now connected to a 4 way splitter which goes to all the tv's in my
house. Perfect picture on all channels all at the same time.

It was sent over satellite (in newsfeeds) but it had the Hard Copy

To make it simple your regular is right. F1, F3, F4, F5 are actually C1,
C3, C4, C5. Politics and TVRO manufacters seem to be the main culprits.

is doing!
