WB TRANSPONDER TESTS

Hallo and GM ...

tnx for the replies...

short more information about...

The streamreader.dll is used by many programs in the satellites monitoring community and works with many different cards.

programs:

Crazyscan, IQ-Monitor or EBS pro... maybe some more others.

the streamreder.dll is the interface between the hard and software and can be configured via an ini file. (streamreader.ini)

In the streamreader.ini is a section with the following entries..

;! Change IF range (default 950-2150MHz) 940 - 2160 MHz

IFStart=700

IFStop=2150

;LNBMid=6000

;LNBStk=21000

I have removed the comments before and set IF start and IF stop and set IFStart to 700.

But i dont know if all versions of streamreader.dll support this.

Maybe you have to change the the streamreader.dll file in the install directory of your software.

I have testet TT-S2 1600 and TBS-6522 with EBS Pro and IQ-Monitor.

EDIT and additional note:

The TV cards normally only support WIDEBAND Symbolrates > 1000 if you have luck.... you can also lock SR below 1000 but it depends on the quality of signal and the chip inside the TV card.

to all: have a nice sunday... nice WX so no time for hamradio today...

Hallo...

today i made a comparision of WB-SIGNAL with the BATC Wideband Monitor with TT-S2 1600 and 85cm DISH + OCTAGON LNB

DATV BEACON signal was set down by 3dB since yesterday... so nearly 7dB on BATC Monitor. (before it was >10dB at the WB Monitor with an 1.3m DISH).

So i think... 85cm is big enough for receiving DATV ...

It looks very good calculatet from AMSAT before... TNX
