OK..I looked at the BIG pictures...it appears to BE capable of completely driving and tuning an old 70mhz LNA (not LNB)....as it has power to LNA (23vdc/grnd).....it has 70mhz OUT and RF IN....this is how the OLD 70mhz systems worked....DC to LNA=RF back then 70mhz version of that RF OUT. These...

I don't know and can't tell from your pictures, what it needs for an input. The old way of doing this was to use an FM radio (or a dedicated SCPC device) that had TV sound....you know....the FM band between 2-6 and 7-13? It needed to tune thru the 70mhz output from a sat box...as they all...

I Want to Win I need more stuff

I'll be there Friday-Sun.....can't pass up a free hat.....ha ha

Well here is my progress report so far. I bought a couple Digiwave 8x1's, but I guess they are the wrong type. They would not switch with any technique I tried, but they weren't that expensive for the trial to concern me. So, I had bought 5 Ecoda 2x1's for their DisEqc passing capability. I...

Well, with no replies, I called Hughes. I told them I had read that they did not advertise support for the old 1-way, but would turn it on. He said that they stopped that about a year ago. So, that dish will become an FTA dish.....so much for that ! I may look into SkyWay 1-way or just get...

Interesting.... Would this be the same wiring hierarchy if using a C-band motor/mount, Primestar 1m, fitted with the Invacom 031 CLCL LNB.....driving with a V-Box?

Radex....was among the best. Made in Florida if memory serves me. All SS bolts & hardware. Get 'em...they are good ones. I tested them on Ku...worked fine with the nf. LNB's of the day....should be killers with modern stuff.

Hello. I am a newbie on the offset Ku dish scene, having just gotten a wave frontier T90 and the SV8000 rec'vr. I always liked the extravagant stuff. I am now re-kindling an old hobby or two by playing with satellites again. I started back in '82 or so with a Radex 10.5 footer (Ku mesh). I...

Hello Iceberg & Others. I am going to try the (2) 8x1 into a 22khz Ecoda using motor control...? If no avail, Will go to DisEqc 4x1 into (4) 22khz Ecoda's....for 8. I will post my results next week maybe. Ice....not at 16 yet.....only 9 .....but 1 more than 8 is the same dilema as 16...eh...

Thanks, but the link you referenced seem to be about something else?

Is it possable that Sonicview will revise the firmware to add Ports 5,6,7,8?

Hi, I have been reading as much as I can about how to do this. It seems that while the SV8000 claims to support DisEqc 1.0,1.1,1.2, and USAL, The settings for DisEqc, only show Mini-A,Mini-B, and Port 1,2,3,4. While I do not have 16 LNB's on my T90 yet, I want to know how to handle the...

Hello, new guy here. I used to use DirecPC back when it was 1-way only in conjuntion with a dial-up. The one I used was a PCI model with the F-connector on the card. As of April 2008, can these still be turned on? Thank You
