4K UHD Broadcasts?

Is there an area or a thread for this? If So I'm sorry for redundancy.

I have a V8 Super and it finds but sometimes does not decode higher symbol rates and FEC. I have been adjusting my C band bud and it is doing most of the arc to NASA at 127 Degrees. Things that once were only 50-Q are now 80+Q.... Cannot right now speak to BER or s/S+N. I'm looking for a receiver that could at least decode that 3rd NASA channel. Right now I'm thinking V9 ?? People on the xxxxxx board pushing a receiver that is more than $200. I could buy that but why should I if I don't need to.

IF ANYONE KNOWS of 4K transmissions theyve heard on GTMedia products please reply.

Is that all there is? Nasa? There must be some other 4k?

You can thank 5g for the lack of 4k tv channels there were 2 freq on the ses 1 satellite they are gone since this 5g mistake was started.

Sathunter How did 5G stop SES Astra from continuing to provide the channels on a different transponder frequency,please elaborate?

I will answer for him. 5G can use the frequencies this transponder was on. My bet is you already knew this. Perhaps when they had to move they chose to simply cease. I think these were just stills anyway.

They(the powers that be)have stifled 4K on this side of the pond, limiting it such a pitiful amount of FTA sources that the question of purchasing a 4K display becomes a real dilemma.I saw those channels and it is a real loss here.
