    Compensating for dish elevation with motor's latitude adjustment?

    Gotta a question that I cannot wrap my mind around: If I can't adjust a dish up to its correct elevation, can I compensate for that by raising the latitude setting on the motor? (I'm attempting a project where I trying to install a DTV Slimline onto a 'shell' of a SG2100 whose motor roached...

    Audio through RF output?

    I just had a chance to start using the AZ Elite that I purchased from Iceberg! I successfully dialed in a few feeds. I also hooked up the RF output to RG59 to send a program (BLTV on 135W) to the bedroom TV. Video showed up. But there was no audio. What has to be done to send the audio out the...

    Idiot's Guide for CS8000??

    I've searched sat guys for a couple days off & on (ok more "off") & I cannot find the Idiot's Guide to the CS8000 written by one of this forum's members (?) which I thought I spotted here on Sat Guys. I just acquired a CS8000 & have just begun to fiddle with it. If someone could post a link to...

    WSI 241 LNB problem?

    Last night, as my wife was watching ewtn on 91W with a Coolsat 5000, the signal suddenly disappeared. I checked the other channels on 91W, everything on a horizontal TP was showing "no or bad signal" while the vertical TPs are operating normally. I tried my other cband sats & everything on a H...

    Eliminating the SG2100 motor's pass-thru?

    I cannot find the thread that covered this, so I'll start a new inquiry: What would be the proper way to bypass the pass through on a SG2100 motor? There was a solution posted here with a splitter, but I never could figure out which splitter was being recommended. I have to have a long cable...

    Has the Elite been discontinued?

    I recently noticed that the azboxusa's site no longer shows the Elite model. If you look for the "Elite" you get directed to the Ultra model. Does this mean that the Elite is now no longer available?

    Active C-Band TP on AMC-9 83W?

    83W is closest to being my "true south" satellite. Does anyone know whether there are any active TPs on C-band on AMC-9? According to Rick's site, there are C-Band wildfeeds from 83W on occasion, and since I'm getting ready to install a new actuator, having it available to aim at would be nice.

    Has anyone had any luck streaming other http programing (such as espn360 or maybe cnn's or cspan's streams) on the Elite besides youtube?

    RTN on 87W?

    Hey guy, earlier today I saw a thread about getting RTN (RTV) on 87W with cband. I cannot find the thread! But, if I can locate 87W with my 7.5' BUD, would my CS4000 be able to "blindscan" RTV in?

    More reliable switching??

    Hey guys, Using a CS4000, I'm having problems getting a disceq 4x1 to toggle b/t our (now) motorized KU dish (SG2100) and our stationary 7.5' cband dish. I have 3 4x1 switches and none of them do the job. I do have a long cable run. I already replaced all the connections with compression...

    coolsat 4000 motor operation?

    Is there a good set of instructions somewhere on how to use a motor with the CS 4000? I'm trying to install a motor. Here's where I'm at: I'm using the CS4000 outside right next to my dish/motor set up with a DTV lnb. Using the USALS setting, I entered my longitude & latitude. I then told my...

    CW gone on 91West C-band?

    Does anyone know if the CW feeds have changed their PID data? I was watching them a couple days ago, but now they are not appearing although my stb gets a lock on the TP. (I had already manually changed the pid numbers to 101 & 102, 201 & 202, 301 & 302 and ahve not deleted my channel lists.)

    Was RTN Down last nite (6/2)?

    Hey guys, I attempted to view my favorite show (The Rockford Files) and all I got was a black screen with "no audio/video" even though I had a solid lock on the 11735 TP. Tried rebooting, manual scanning, BSing, but no luck. Anybody else have a problem?

    problem with switching &/or CS4000

    Need Coolsat experts here: I have two CS4000 Pros. I got them both used, & I shall say, they came with less than virgin SW. For a while one of them worked well switching between my KU lnb (locked on 83w) & my Cband lnb (locked on 91w). Then suddenly, the EWTN (on 91) channels started...

    Aiming a stationary BUD?

    I found 99W. I got it locked on, blindscanned & I have the US virgin Island feeds. Only one problem: My TPs' polarities are reversed from what the Lyngsat data is telling me. (V instead of H or H instead of V). What did I do wrong? And what do i do to correct this? I'm using a WS241 LNBF &...

    RTN Gone on 83W?

    Before going off to work last night, I was going to watch my fav rtn show, The Rockford Files. As soon as the theme song ended the pic & sound disappeared. The signal Q was still 70+% on 4444 and the NBC news test bars were still strong on another TP. Anybody got a clue about what happened to RTN??
