    According to the SES9 footprint map, it should be possible.... but do those networks carry the programming you want to watch?

    We really need someone in Melbourne to check if they can receive the SES9 transponders.

Would i be right in saying i would possibly need a bigger size ku dish and if so what size is recommended to try and get this SES9 signal because if i need a bigger dish ill go get one

    But as mentioned, SES9 doesn't carry the CignalTV channels.

    SES7 and SES9 have different footprints and channels.

    Unless something's changed and not reflected on the SES website, I'd be more inclined to think the satellite operator (SES) information would be more reliable than what is posted on Lyngsat.

    Correct, with the main purpose of showing the SES9 footprint over S/E Australia.

    A standard size Foxtel dish (65cm) should theoretically be adequate.

    Try it first, and see how you go.

    Agreed, there is very little info on what, if anything is available on the SE Australian beam.

    Cignal tv, only on the North Asia beam where it's main audience lives. In saying that... mcmuzzy , you can suggest to "cignal tv" to use the Australian beam... Since the shutdown of the I19 (Ku band) philippine service, they may have good audience in Australia.

    Not to bump, but I saw this thread and I'm trying to lock SES9 in Melb, I think I can scrape the 11024 V transponder maybe??
    I'm sitting at a BER of 1 98% of the time. It's a little hard to tell, there's a bit of noise where stuff should be though...

    Will update when my Inverto Ultra LNB comes, using a generic Sharp atm. There's defiantly something there, just can't lock anything my LNB is also skewed for Optus and I19 so that's probably not helping.

    Has anybody else had any luck with it?

    It's really hard to tell hasn't got anything listed for it either.

    Until more informative suggestions come along, if your sure you have the correct Azimuth/Elevation, you could try to alter the skew of the LNB either way. a degree or 2 at a time.
    I suggest before doing so you mark the LNB and bracket with a Texta so you can return it where it was before.
    I stand unequivicably behind everything I say , I just dont ever remember saying it !!

    I would be very interested to hear what differences you get with your Inverto LNB.
