My biggest problems are that i am limited in what I can do physically, due to disabilities, and the rest is due to finances. I know it is harder to find the most bang for my buck, with little money, and/or with the lack of skills, or ability. Rock & a hard place i guess. Thanks for all of the...

I found it listed on amazon. The reviews seemed to be pretty good, and they have a warranty on it. I wish I can find out more about it.

I was looking at this one: Orca Antenna AX-909G2 Stealth Indoor Outdoor HDTV Antenna with Motor RotorI know it's not multidirectional though.

I "may" be able to get a family member, or friend to do it. my brother actually has a climbing harness at work. If i was to buy an antenna to replace the one we have, what should I get? We want both VHF & UHF, and we live about 65 miles or so, from Tampa & Orlando. Aren't there antennas that...

Thanks. There is one business that is about 40 miles away, so i guess I will have to call him. If I could get up there myself; I'd do it. The tower has one of those cranks that raises and lowers it, but they'd still have to climb it.

Hi, We have a tower ( I think it is a 40 or 50 ft. telescoping tower ) and antenna, but we're only getting a few channels. I know the rotor works, but there is no inside controller. We live in a more rural area too. The antenna seems to be in good shape, but we just don't know what to do. I am...

I was really disappointed to see that HBO Go on Roku is not available to DirecTV subscribers.

Hi, Is it SES1-C or SES1-KU? I have a GloryStar Satellite system. When I first set it up ( it was given to me ), I did run across History & bio, but when i did a reset, I lost all of the settings. I'm a newbie, so any guidance is much appreciated. Thanks.

I ran the cable directly to LNBF 2, and was getting no signal, so I connected to LNBF1, and started getting a signal. I am not sure what the problem is. I must admit the dish seems a little loose on the pole, despite using Quickrete to make the pole steady in the ground. One of the bolts...

The system was given to me, so it just has the dual clamp. I'll run the cable directly to LNBF 2. I'll post back here with the results. Thanks.

LNBF1 is still routed through the multiswitch. Should i disconnect it, and just run the cable directly to LNBF1?

I disconnected LNBF 2, and the signal actually seems better. On channel 106 the signal quality reading is: S: 60 Q: 75, channel 113: S: 30 Q: 30, Channel 901: S: 45, Q: 75.

I know it's Rg6 cable, which I am planning on replacing. I have had it for several years, or more. It was used at our previous house, when DirecTv had been installed. It's connected at the satellite dish, and runs straight to connector on the side of the house ( maybe 25 ft. or more? ). Then...

I finally got it working. I had to get my wife to help too. I took the receiver & tv outside, also had to move the pole a little. Outside, on channel 901, I was getting S: 80 Q: 80. So, I went ahead and hooked it up inside. Now i'm getting S: 45 Q: 75. G19-KU 12152 (H) 20000. I did do the update...

OK. Thanks. I'll do this tomorrow, and will post here with the results. "If" it comes down to it, I'll hire someone to help fix the problem, even though I can't really afford it. Would rather make the break from DirecTv, and similar companies.
