Up for grabs is a Neusat 8000HD found at a yard sale. It had been converted to a Captain 9000HD. This stb does QPSK only but will do AC3.

Included are the remote & a CD of factory software & utilities, both Neusat & Captain.

I'm paying shipping on all this 'Random Acts..." stuff.

Hi Brex2001,
I would really love to have the Neusat9000. I do not have an HD receiver and will put it to good use. Thank you!

Neusat is gone now. Yay.

squid385 - it's yours. Just remember that it won't do 8PSK.

I love seeing members helping out members:)

Ya got a great bargain I'm looking forward to watching some HD with this receiver and yes it was one heck of a great bargain, thanks to brex2001. What a great generous person he(Bruce) is and good member here on SatelliteGuys.

There's also reward in doing something for someone anonymously - doing the right thing & staying out of the results.:)

Hello brex2001,
I got the Neusat 9000 today and just now got it set up. I'm getting some HD channel feeds on 125w. Watching the news right now on PBS HD03. Also picking up 30w, 97w and 103w. It has a great picture and color using the HDMI cable. All I got to do now is get a motor and do some feed hunting. Thanks so much!
Larry

That's cool! I have a Neusat 9000 and it sees signal on 125w PBS but will not scan in the channels....

You have to add the TP's manually and put a check mark by each TP you want it to search. May also have to convert it to Captain 8000HD.:)

That stb was already converted to a Captain - you may need to jtag it to revert to a Neusat. The 2 loaders for Captain & Neusat reject opposite file types.
What with cleaning up to move I just don't have time to putter with everything so I didn't bother trying to restore the stb back to original.

Thanks, I'll try it again. I do remember adding the TP's manually, seeing signal & quality jump up, & still nothing after a scan. Converting it isn't an option. I've never messed with that type of stuff on any of my boxes (Neusat 9000, Pansat 9200, CS 8000) because I'm sure I'll take something that works, and create a nice paperweight out of it! :eek: :D

Yes, glad to read you're making progress with it. Some of the sports feeds should open up around this time of year.:)
Supposedly there is an editor that works with these - can't recall which right now.
