I tried the Pansat 2700 on White Springs and it's a tad better than
the old Satwork. It may be as you said the quality of the original
material and maybe no processing. If you write to them, Victor is CEO
I think, they may be able to get a better signal. Really neat family
programming. Popeye, Three Stooges, Betty Boop, etc etc etc, and
really neat old time movies. Well worth the effort to get this
channel, and patronize the advertisers if you can. Most of the movies
seem to be stuff you will not see on TCM.

In fact, the CEO gave me the cell number of the head technician who
was on the road to call to get help with the reception. How many TV
networks will go that far for you. I hope they prosper. No
commercials during the main program is another outstanding plus, if
you were taping things (quality not quite there yet).

I'm glad to know it's not all my equipment's fault, as it works very
well on hundreds of other transponders.
