This is the typical symptom that the 922 is not receiving the pulses back from the reed switch at the dish (in the actuator motor). Check and re-check the wiring at the back of the 922 and verify the wires that are connected to the reed switch are going to ground and pulse on the 922. Good...

So that Manhattan RS-1933 I played with all last weekend was just vapor ware? Doesn't matter to me. It still scanned hundreds of channels and I watched some fantastic HD programming and some not so HD. HDMI out works great. Scanning is fast and sensitive (it added programs that were barely...

Here's some good info There is some good information about aligning a dish to the arc at these links: http://forums.satforums.com/SatForumMaster/common/messages.php?bpr=1&msg=7324.15#7324.15 and Footprints by Dish Size - Adjusting the Polar Mount for Prime Focus Antenna - C/Ku-Band...

I use my ol' 920 mainly for the X4 (105deg) subscription stuff now, but occasionally I'll go to T4-600, 601, etc.to watch the free Nebraska PBS stations. Unfortunately, these programs are no longer in the guide, but still viewable. There are probably other free DC2 channels I don't know about...

You mean our good friends at Welcome to ATS Electronics, Inc. ? They are the recommended source for any 4dtv repair, etc. Bob in Lone Oak, TX

The unit_32z.h, it is the header for the P&E api which is contained in unit32_z.dll. If you buy their cable you'll get the api :( Bob in Lone Oak, TX

The key is not to MOVE to G0-10, but while pointing at W5 program G0 to point to the same (W5) location. You must be on W5, but using the G0 satellite to do that step. The "latest/greatest" alternate setup is dated 1/13/2010, so you might want to print that out and try the steps again. Good...

The latest (revised) alternate procedure is now available at http://www.skyvision.com/pages/Alternate_letter.pdf (920/922). There is a procedure for the 905 also available from their home page. It specifically says: " If you have previously completed the alternate procedure and still could...

Stephan, If you can take a close up pic of the affected area and post a link to it, maybe I or someone else that has a 920 can help with parts identification. Bob in Lone Oak, TX

The "Morning Bridge" is reporting the "End of an Era" and saying BUD programming is coming to an end. I emailed them: As Mark Twain is reported to have remarked, "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated". Please see the following links for the continuing saga of BUD programming in...

Ralf said in his news letter "I just spoke to Mike Kohl and we both think, due to the importance of the 4DTV transition, to start the show shortly after 10 PM eastern time. Mike told me that he has good and also bad news." Note the 1 hour delay in the show. The Rachel Madow show is using the...

What version of OO are you using? It works fine for me with version 3.0.1 of Open Office Writer. Bob in Lone Oak, TX

Okay, I found about the unit_32z.h, it is the header for the P&E api which is contained in unit32_z.dll. Looks like I have to splurge (sp?) and get the BDM cable from them before I'll be able to use the source project as it exists now. Thanks Bob

Trying to build I get an error for a missing header file (unit_32z.h). Anyone know what/where this is (it's not in the zip)? Thanks Bob
