I have a 10' mesh, had to manually enter KRBK to get it at 60Q. The AZ wouldn't scan it in. Escapes scans at 63Q but no video, only very choppy audio. This is in southwest Pennsylvania.

Big Hemi----- You are not that far away. I am at Niagara Falls, Ontario. I never had an AZ, but I see that they don;t seem to like lower Q numbers. I have the S10 and Traxis 6000 and both do a wonderful job at giving a great Q. Here are the current as of right now
Escapes--- 75 S---- 74Q
KRBK----------86 S-----96Q
KCWY 13------82 S-----84Q
KRBK now I can go 2 click either east or west and still have high Q then 0Q. I used to have to give one click to west for signal. There was only one sweet spot and that was it. Now I can bump either direction and still have no problem.
I am using the Traxis DBS 6000, 7 1/2 startrak mesh with DMX 741 c/k lnbf

Thanks bkday. My issue is that I have a C/Ku LNBF. If I tweak it to get escapes, I lose the CBC mux on Anik F1/R, ABC HD Net, and some other things on C-band. I did have a picture for a very short time but it isn't worth losing some of the other stuff.

I have the dmx 741 c/k lnbf. I originally had it skewed at 0 on my true south satellite, but found too that I would have some and not others. So I did a bunch of playing around with meter at dish and tweaked the FD and skewed just a bit counter clockwise and now I have everything in quite solid from the 40.5 to the 139. I even get the 105 cband NBC in at 81Q. I had to find the right skew to please all the sats. It took a while and a lst of back and forth. Now I just pray that there are no massive wind storms to mess it up. So far ok, made it through the thunderstorms this week with hail and winds over 60 mph.

Since we're also talking about KRBK, that ch tunes in at around 86 Q on S9 and 7.5' dish here in Texas. But for some reason, usually between 12PM and 2PM the ch pixilates a lot, even tho the quality is still reading the same. Any other time it seems to be just fine. Anyone know why this might be doing this, especially when the Q is staying steady and is fairly high to begin with?
