According to the listings on Lyngsat.com the "ABC News Now" transponder
on IA-6 at 93w is a FREE channel available for viewing but I have always
had a problem with jittery video. There are always some momentary freezes
and artifacting and just plain jittery video. The audio is always fine.

The signal strength and quality is good and I double-checked all the
various settings. The only discrepancy I found was in the transponder's
frequency. Lyngsat lists it as 12042 Mhz and my receiver showed it as
12043 Mhz. I tried both settings with no discernable difference.

I don't have any similar problems on any other channels. Am I the only
one with this problem ???

Also does anyone know of any other 24-hour news channels available to us
Ku band FTA users ???

Thanks,

PON

I just tuned and watched ABC News Now for about a half hour and had
none of the problems you describe. Granted I'm probably in the middle
of the footprint (Missouri), but I also have only a 6.5' dish.

In the whatever it's worth department.

Take care,
