I've got a motorized ku only system installed that is tracking the arc
perfectly. I also have 1 dsr920. What I need is X4 but it is not in my
sat selection. Only a2, X0, and x7. I have parked my dish on x4, then
used a2 channel 7, then tuned to sev dif freq of the hts stuff on x4
via options 6 7 7 8. Got a dc lock on sev diffent freq but all the
channels added are just 807 and no new sats. I have left the 920 on
all night but the channels more than 807 or new sats never happened. I
know it was doing something at first because my channels started out
at 514 then to 807. Is there any possible way to get the complete ku
channel maps from a certain freq on a certain ku sat? I don't no
anyone around here that has c band going otherwise I would just dl the
maps from G0 from someone. There has got to be a way to dl the maps on
a ku only system. I just know there is but I haven't figured that out
yet. I'd almost bet that someone in here knows how to do this. When I
get a dc lock my sig and the other one is in the mid 60s. I don't know
if that is good or bad. Also do I have to have anything authorized to
get anything at all? Like on X0 i'm seeing ch 600 and 601 but can't
get any video at all from them when I'm on X0. I learned the above
from reading the q & a stuff on 4dtvforum but haven't got it to work
for me. I was hoping someone knew of a better way to do this. Thanks

There are no existing US 4DTV maps that I know of on Ku. At one time
there was (a few years ago) but nobody that I know of has found any in
the past few years.

Stay away from A2 (StarChoice) Ku maps. They will cause you misery if
you are using a US 4DTV.

I need to elaborate on the A2 StarChoice maps.

A 905 can accept the A2 maps without experiencing problems. A 920
or 922 will have problems if both the US and A2 maps are downloaded.
A 4DTV can only hold a limited number of transponder definitions. A 905
does not accept the maps for the analog channels, so when it downloads
the US maps it has far fewer transponders defined than the 920 or 922.

You will have to buy a 6 foot dish, or go this route:

If your 920 has never been authorized it will not play anything. I
wonder if you can get a hit from a KU bird. Seems unlikely.

What type of motor did you use to make it track the arc perfectly?

SG2100?
HH100?
