There is a forum dedicated to the 9242 recvr. Lots of information on replacing diodes and also the hard drive causes the same problems you mention. http://www.digitalhome.ca/forum/58-bell-satellite-tv-pvr-hd-pvr-hd-receivers/59201-bell-tv-9242-hd-pvr-discussion-thread-251.html Take a look, lots...

PM sent. She is still active.

I was also watching the Montreal -v- Bruins on SN360 and the services dropped off twice, a few minutes apart. I switched to my Dish with NHL CI and received a strong signal and continued to watch the game. This happened in the first period, in the third period I switched back to the Bell feed...

Yes, does my broking and I've been in contact via Email about two weeks ago.

I've been using a Capital One card for 5 years or better. It may be best to use a major card, not one from a local Credit Union or bank located only in your state.

I had the same problem, and did cut down a few trees. I'll bet money his problem is capacitors in the 9242 reciever. I posted here about my problems, same as his and found the answer at the digital home site. He can fix his issue for about $2.00 Loss-of-signal-at-45-Lat? was the post...

Over at the Bell Digital site for my receiver, 9242, a person posted he had the same problem. He found that a few capacitors in the receiver were swollen and that upon replacing them his problems were over. On further searching, I found another site and three capacitors were singled out as...

I got off my butt and did the test myself. I tapped into the 91 satellite and the receiver showed a signal strength of 95. It couldn't tell me which satellite I was picking up, figure this is from newer system or the switches now in place. Anyway, I know my setup is good, but the receiver has...

I've dug out my old Bell 3100 receiver and I'm wondering if I hooked up to either the 91 or 82 cable would it give me a signal strength reading? Some folks at the Canadian Digital site have discussed that my problem could be the 9242 recvr. The 3100 is left over from the Florida connection days...

Is there a certain one meter dish that I could use with the existing LNBs. Where could it be purchased from? Would a older "Dish" dish work? Which one ,,, Thanks

I just finished realligning all, still a weak signal. Could the receiver be the problem, do they lose signal reception. I've never heard of this but there are other threads on a Canadian 9242 Digital site.
