Washburn Sioux

I am in need of FIGHTING SIOUX Hockey tickets for Thanksgiving week-end, Friday November 23rd and Saturday November 24th. I need 4 or more for each night. It's Hockey Season again; Yahoo!!! Thanks, Ron Washburn, ND 701-462-8402 rmcleod@GREnergy.com

I have the Satwork ST3618, LNBF ASC321, but am now using a 1.2 meter dish instead of my original 76 cm dish. I have the LNBF ASC321, are there better LNB's that would help increase signal strength? I had a signal quality that varied from 39 to 43, signal intensity at 76, was able to watch the entire game with no problems. Had higher signal quality strength the last weekend they televised. I suspected last night, that anyone who had a smaller dish would have problems. The Chinese stations are coming in at a steady signal quality of 90, don't know if will go higher than 90 on the Satwork ST3618.

My original system is a Satwork ST3618 with a 76cm dish, (mis-quoted my dish size in an earlier post as being a 90 cm dish). Two weeks I bought and installed an in-line signal amplifier which did not seem to help at all. On Saturday I bought a used 1.2 meter dish from an installer in Bismarck, ND. The 1.2 meter dish appears to be a figerglass composite of some sort, with a tripod frame to hold the LNB. Set up the 1.2 meter dish when I got home, left the in-line amplifier in circuit, and used a satellite meter to tweak in the signal. Had signal quality of 90 on the Chinese stations, had upper 80's previously. Saturday's game using the Satwork ST3618 and the 1.2 meter dish I had signal quality of 87 to 90. Sunday's exibition game I had a steady signal of 90. Even when they had the power turned up previously, I never received this high of signal quality levels. 1.2 meter dish may be more than I need but I was desparate. The DirecPC dishes that PSB and other uses may have done the job as well for me, but the installer only had the smaller size of the DirecPC dish and I wanted to go for the home run. Hope this information helps out others that have been having the same poor or no reception that i have had this year.

PSB, What size of a DirecPC dish are you using? I have the 90cm dish and am not getting anything on the FSSN but am getting a great signal on the three Chinese stations. I am going to get a bigger dish. Thanks!

Is anyone able to pick up anything on AMC9 satellite today? I have moved my dish and have picked up AMC3, but can't seem to find AMC9. I have the Satwork ST3618 system. Has anyone had any luck?
