I threw up an extra dish I had,but the S strength is about 67 and the Q jumps btween 0-60 never staying on a number more than a mili-sec. Do I need better equip? thanks

My dish is 30" dtv and the LNB is standard. They were used for my local ch when I had dtv.

Yes you would need new equipment in order to get sat 123 W. You have two options ( depending on your location ) and here they are.

Galaxy 10 C-band (123w)
Dish: 6ft
LNB: C-band


Galaxy 10 Ku-band (123w)
Dish: 30" (1.2m Hawaii/Canada/Carribbean)
LNB: Linear


Hope this answers your question. I will upload a list of all Dish & LNB requirements for each North American satellite i am sure that will help a lot of people. Here is the link for that list. Dish & LNB requirements for each North American satellite

I want to try to get the sat you are talking about but do not seem to have the sat you are talking about on my sat list.I have galaxy 18 (123.0w)My reciever is a viewsat pvr 7000.How do I get right sat on list.Thank you you guys are great.

Viewsat isn't the best receiver to get true fta but it does work. Sometimes different sat's will show differently on some receivers. But if it says 123 W on Galaxy 18 on your VS PVR that is where that sat would be found on your receiver. One thing you got to keep in mind these true fta birds have much weaker signals then DN and BEV so you have to patient when looking for one. And of course the bigger the dish the easier they are to find, motorised dish is ideal for true fta birds but they can be found with out a motor as well.
