    Overdriven audio on some channels

    Trying to figure out if it's on my end or theirs. Audio is clipping like they are driving it too hard on the input level of the encoder. Sent from my SM-G955U using the SatelliteGuys app!

    Infomercials... who puts them on?

    Need more than 4 receivers

    We have 4 bedrooms. The kids all have TVs in their bedrooms with over the air antenna. I have 4 orby receivers so in the evenings they are taking the living room receiver to one of the bedrooms. Would it be possible for orby to charge a small fee for receivers beyond the 4 standard receiver...

    Orby dish/Lnbf design

    The orby lnbf feed appears to be elongated as vertical only. I assume because orby uses 13v vertical tps only. My biggest question is the curve of that dish optimized for vertical signals only or would it be possible to mount a normal lnbf on it and put it on an H to H actuator? Sent from my...

    My orby aiming experience

    I found that after an orby receiver has been activated and the channels are already loaded, dish pointing goes easy. I used the receiver and a small TV. Put the receiver on a satellite channel and start sweeping the dish across the sky. It will lock quickly when you hit the satellite...

    Do orby receivers reboot themselves updates?

    I leave one TV on all the time for my pets. Dish always reboots for updates and will not resume TV without pushing enter on the remote. Do orby boxes stay on? Sent from my SM-G950U using the SatelliteGuys app!

    Switch from Dish

    I have had dish for 10 years or more. Orby has the channels I mostly use. It looks like a 4 room system payback will take about 5 months if I factor in what I pay monthly over the savings with orby. I am leaning hard to orby. Sent from my SM-G955U using the SatelliteGuys app!
