    Why would a specific frequency have 0 quality?

    I am trying to understand if this is a positioning problem or some other issue. Galaxy 19 (263°E) 11.960 V 22000 It is not giving me any quality but there is a signal over %80. Yet other frequencies (above and below) seems to be fine with some channels visible. Why would this happen, could a...

    Hello, is there any FTA receiver software that is compatible with Windows Media Center so I can record/watch my satellite channels on my PC? I just setup one PC as my new cable box, and it would be ultimate if I can just add my receiver and make one more available space in my cabinet. Even if...

    Renting slot on transponder for broadcasting?

    How much does it cost to rent a slot/frequency on a transponder? I am thinking it should be fairly cheap since I see bunch of channels with nothing but two dudes talking all day long, and in addition to renting that slot, do you have to have your own equipment to beam the signals up the...

    Setting up my visionsat

    iceberg, My visionsat arrived last week, I just didn't have time to go pick up a sat finder, do you have a small tutorial somewhere on how to lock onto a certain satellite (G19 in my case) using receiver alone?

    Circular bubble level

    I just saw a pretty cool level in one Directv installation video, it was either included in the mast or the installer just dropped it in there. I think it is a genius idea! :eureka The only problem is finding them. :)

    Can I watch Galaxy 19 @ 97.0°W using 75cm Elliptical from where I am

    Hi Everyone, I am in New York City, and previously the channels I wanted were on Galaxy 25, and I could use this map to determine size of dish I needed. (It is between 75-85cm) But when I go back there to check the requirement for Galaxy 19 (the Sat channels were moved to), it does not have the...

    Comparing DirecTV & Dish but need info on billing practices and reliability

    Here is my comparison, including my current bill to TWC: The main reason I want to switch to DirecTV or Dish is because of more advanced DVR features. It started when TWC swapped their decent DVR firmware with a inferior one when I had to take my old DVR in for a replacement. Therefore...

    Time Warner's policy on sharing cable service with neighbors

    If I just get 2nd box on my account and give that box to my neighbor downstairs, would that be a problem or illegal? We would pay $10 add on for the additional box, and that's it. This is a 2 family private house, not like an apartment, so it would be the same address.

    8300HDC box with Navigator is terrible

    There is slow, then there is HDC slow... Compared to Passport, HDC's interface is very slow, by slow we mean the updates not responsiveness. It responds but it doesn't update as fast. For example the info box on guide (upper left corner where you see movie details/cast, etc.) on Passport I could...
