    OTHER C-Band on the tiny

    80 cm is about 31 inches; I personally would not invest a lot of money into receiving C band on that little dish. My feeling is that a 6 footer as my personal minimum is a given and even at that there are limitations. This is just my personal view. If you have some parts laying around then it...

    Home Weather Station

    GEOSATpro Micro HD

    I would say yes. There are several questions that are pertinent. Is your power supply capable of 220 VAC and do you have an adapter plug? Their AC plugs should be considered a weapon, quite large compared to the US type. What are you going to use for a display? A TV or monitor. In the event...

    Houston Tracker IV Satellite Locator (positioner) Owners manual?

    To answer your question on DisEQc; no it can't. Since I am a packrat, I'll do some digging, should be able to come up with documentation. As I seem to recall from my days back in the early 70's and my experimenting; the satellite names can be changed if you have access to an E-prom programmer...

    Advice needed.

    From your statement; you used to watch the TV channels, then it would seem that you already have a proper configuration and all that it needs would be to find the proper satellites in your area of operation and then program that into the receiver. Orbit might just be able to help you with that...
