    Your settings may be off. Here is what they should be:

    Transponder:16
    Posição Orbital: 101º Oeste (259º Este)
    Frequência: 12 033 MHz
    Polarização: Horizontal

    Emissão Rádio: RDPi
    SID:1
    PID Vídeo: 33
    PID Áudio: 34
    PID RDPi: 35


    Good luck...

    Galaxy 19 – (Banda Ku, DIGITAL)

    Cobertura: América do Norte, América Central e Hawai
    Transponder:20

    Yup, AMC4 is down. I hadn't realized as my 39" dish has not been re-aligned in quite some time. Satellite installers are going to have a field day. That reminds me, I need a motor and an installer - anyone know how to set one up and not afraid of heights?! :D PM me...

    I really didn't want to go on the roof and reposition it. Le sigh.

    Just got off the roof, god damn it's hot as hell up there.

    Anyhow, to anybody who needs to reposition it: if your sat is pointed at AMC4 at the moment, then it only needs a slight nudge to the left assuming you are standing directly behind the satellite.

    http://www.dishpointer.com/ is your friend in times like this. :)'

    Lyngsat says 10260 for the frequency rather then 10259, but I don't think it makes much of a difference.

    Assuming your dish is pointed towards G19..

    You can manually add a new satellite into your box in the setup menu, but it's not really necessary. All boxes have a "Add TP" or "Edit TP" option in the setup for whatever Sat you are using. You can add a new TP to your Galaxy 11 list and it would still work, so it's up to you.

    So all you have to go is to edit the transponder list for your current selected satellite and enter 12060 for the frequency and horizontal for the polarity and then rescan.

    Hope this helps. Good luck.
