jayn_j, sorry I am late getting back to you had a busy weekend “jayn_j,” “Sigh. You are seriously misquoting me.” I did ? please list that ? or is it more of the tangle webs getting in the way ??? “jayn_j,” “I am not arguing against $4 cables. I have never argued against $4...

"jayn_j" "Tryinghard, I know I should just walk away from this one, but I can't let this be the last word, as others may misunderstand. You know you are right, and there is probably little I can say to change your opinion here." I am right, NOT because I invented the Spec for HDMI cable, the...

“jayn_j” “Uh, what the heck is your problem, tryinghard? “ Not a damn thing, I don’t have the problem, jayn_j “jayn_j” “If a cable meets spec, you should be confident it will work in the application. Unfortunately the spec doesn't extend to long runs, which is why this discussion...

What the hell was I thinking ??? Damn and here I thought when a specification is written and followed its a closed case ? What the hell was I thinking ??? As long as the said cable is “in-spec” it will perform the task, Damn the things one picks up off the web ? I better get my...

Sorry about the late reply very busy and my keyboard crapped out !!! [tryinghard] [THE FUTURE WORLD AND REAL WORLD IS ALREADY HERE] "Ilya" "Exactly!" What do you mean "Exactly" ? what are you talking about ? my comment was on your test lab that made a big deal out of testing hdmi...

"tryhard" "hdmi is a specification with a Spec it's almost impossible to have a bad cable." "Ilya" "Sure, if the cable truly meets the specs, then it should work. That's what the specs are for." Now that is progress "Ilya" "I am just showing you an example that if a manufacturer...

specification "Ilya" "If you are stating that all HDMI cables are all exactly the same, then I disagree. And I have explained why." I am not stating that at all, I am putting up what others have stated, hdmi is a specification with a Spec it's almost impossible to have a bad cable...

HDMI cables are created equal "Ilya" "It's not that simple." Sorry I believe it is that simple a cable spec is a cable spec I deal with that a few times a year, I don't care who makes a cable if it is under a cable spec that covers our current instrumentation maker we use then it works...

“Ilya” Thanks for your feed back, I guess I should have put in the original post “ up too a length of cable,” here I was thinking about the general lengths of 3 to 6 ft, I would like to interject something here and believe me I am not coming down on Monoprice cables there are just as many on...

“KAB” “That's why most of us have been buying from monoprice.com for some time.” I posted it because, there is still a lot of people who still buy into a better video and audio with HDMI cables that costing upward to $100, still a lot of people out there believing if it cost more it must...

HDMI cheap cables Since this is a tip “Theater Advice, Tips and Discussion” I have seen many fallen into the HDMI cable trap of buying big money HDMI cables in stores mostly after buying HD equipment, or someone listening to their expert friend, it’s sad ! Please keep this in mind when...

Newbie thinking of putting up you HDTV AT9 Dish ? Think twice or Forget it ! <”Bob”> <”Who recommends a dual reading meter? I read the manual over and over with no mention of a dual meter. The instructions seem to be written for a single meter and I don’t see how a dual would work with an...

Newbie thinking of putting up you HDTV AT9 Dish ? Think twice or Forget it ! dbthurman <"Just make sure your mast is level"> That just might be the number one problem with many self-installs : -) I am not surprise you got a signal but from the video the alignment between the two...

First off I am not a installer but I did a decent job installing my 2 LNB dish, when a DirecTV installer drop off my HD20 and AT9 Dish, I told him I would install it later since it will be a few months till I get HD, I made sure the HD20 would work on my two LNB phase II dish before hand. (my...

Peter, <” Yes go by the signal not what the TV tells you, try to peak in the 101 satellite the best you can no matter what the settings on the dish at this point, the elevation should not need changed, “> I really tried to get it over 62 I was going back and forth 10s of times trying to...

sksatellite, <" Last time I heard from someone said, 3 LNB on larger dish is has the focal point incorrectly. Maybe this is what you encountered. "> Well the only thing I used to mount the 3 LNBs was the hardware bracket that came w/the units and I followed the instructions and double...

Peter, I worked w/the dish today this time bringing out a small tv first thing I notice was the Monster sat meter was pretty right on, it has approx. 8 degs of play as soon as the signal drops off at either end so does the signal on the receiver. I got a reading of 62 on 101 Sat A, but...

Peter, <" The power lines should not be a problem, you would need to be VERY unlucky for them to be blocking the line of sight, I am sure you will eventually get it and you have back up, check here for an installer in your area....."> Thanks for the link and also the advice you gave me I...

Peter <" Remember the sat C LNB is a different kind of LNB from the other two, "> Roger that one, C LNB output to the combiner, w/one coax to combiner from sat B then output from combiner coax to sat b in the multi-switch. <" I think it may be time to call in an installer, but if you...

There is a pulse I think Peter, One thing I forgot to tell you last time my receiver will do a 3 LNB oval dish 101, 110, 119 so that problem solved, ok I disconnected the Sat C and ran the Sat B both leads into the multi-switch (receiver is on 2 LNB oval) for the first time I got life, a...

Peter, <”.. before you invest in new receivers make sure you NEED the programming on all three satellites. So I would hook up directly to the 101 LNB and point the dish, then reconnect everything, the 101 LNB is on the far right from behind the dish. “> Well I don’t really need the HD as...

Peter, A update, I un-did the heat shrink on the gold splitter and install the Channel Master one just in case, nothing really happen (I still get a strong signal on the monster meter) so I am thinking maybe I do need a newer receiver, since the menu only tunes in the 101 & 119 sat, but the...

Letterbox vs Full Screen towellie <” I'm with you 'tryinghard' I have a 4:3 hdtv, and always watch HD letterbox, wouldn't have it any other way. on my 32", letterbox is equivalent to a 30" widescreen tv. With a 36" it's close to a 34" widescreen. “> I think letterbox format came out in...
