I lost 97 a few weeks ago, it's a fixed dish and I tried to troubleshoot the problem. I had to reposition the dish to get the sat back and when I did alot of the transponders are blank. I had to move the dish alot, not just tweek it so Im wondering if some of the channels moved to a different...

Im am trying to setup a sg2100 motor/dish. Looking over various youtube vids some say set to true south and some say set to the closest sat that's closest to true south. HH dish pointer says my true south is 187.5 with compass, it also list Nimig4 as 189 with compass. Should I align the dish...

I have been trying to reset my dish to 97 but can't find it as easily as in the past. I have found strong signals with good quality on 11,971 H using blind scan but no stations. Im trying to identify this sat so I will know witch way to turn the dish, I have tried LyngSat but don't see this...

I have seem cheap satellite receivers for less than $30 on ebay, I want to buy one and use it coupled to my 7" TV, as a portable signal meter sat/locater for use at the dish. Some of these say DVB T2 and some say DVB S2, does anyone know the difference between the two? Has anyone used one of...

I am using a old Coolsat 5000 with WS-90 dish stock lnb setup. I have it set to 97 - g19, but thinking of adding a dish motor and maybe a new receiver like the one recently reviewed - Geopro microHD. My main question is, what do the new receivers pick up that my old mpeg2 receiver won't...

I have a spun aluminum 7' and 10' mesh dish with a few dings left over from the vc2 and 4dtv days, I plan on putting on it up beside my garage/hobby shop building. I use a old Coolast and ku only setup for the house, now I need something to play with and search the skys as days get shorter...

I need to buy a 46-55" plasma, lcd or led for my room. I mainly use it for OTA or FTA from my coolsat & cnx, but also would like to be able to surf youtube or maybe rent a movie via my dsl connection, either using the tv as a pc monitor or maybe with use a wireless usb adapter.

I have a deep dish and want to keep my scaler ring/ feedhorn setup, maybe change out the lnb with a lnbf? I am thinking if i remove the pol rotor arm it may work. If not then is there any way to get one of the lnbf/scaler ring combos to work on a very deep C band dish, about .26 ?

I am planning on adding C band to complement my KU setup, however the C band will be limited to 74 - 121 degrees because of the tree line. I am looking for sugguestions on the best sat to setup the dish on (fixed for now) and a good lnbf to replace the old feedhorn/pol motor setup on a BUD...

I ordered a 8x1 for my Coolsat 6k so I could hookup more than 4 dishes. I read up on switches in the FAQ section and now a bit confused when it comes to standard and universal ku lnbfs. I was thinking I could hookup up to 8 lnbs to 1 receiver but now I am not sure sense some of my lnbs are...

Right now I have a 4x1 diseqc with 4 fixed dishes on one receiver, motorized dish on a second receiver. IR remotes interfere while trying to use both so Is there a way to control both fixed dishes and a motorized dish through one diesqc sw? I am using Coolsat 6k so it should support 8x1 sw.

I have been a old time BUD guy trying to get a KU/motor/dish setup. I dont like the auto usals setup and I have problems using diseq (I cant see the count like on old C band positioners). So here's a few questions: What is "goto" motor control? I have been looking at the V box 6...

I use a 6000 for fixed dishes & 4000 for motor/dish, this works well except the 4000 takes forever to blind scan compared to the 6000 (thats on fast blind scan) I have never had the time to use or know why they have (detailed blind scan) on the 4000 so does anyone know if there is really any...

I have a WS9036 dish & 521 lnb, it works good as a fixed dish but i am tired of taking all evening to reallign it when channel surfing so I ordered a SG2100 motor. I have setup bud motors in years past but this is a new adventure, so got a few questions: What about lnb scew? The motor may...

I have a 7.5 ft "deep" dish solid spun aluminum dish, it uses a button hook type feed horn support, I have read these deep dish types don't work very well so I would like to hear from anyone who has used one. I am thinking it should be sutable for single band C or maybe Ku if I can find the...

I want to set up a bud for G5 only (stationary) i know its `25 deg but i cant find how to check my site for a clear path to gr elevation? I bought a dial protractor like builders use. I would like to take advantage of cheap analog programing for SiFi & TnT before they go digital. Also i...
