    Looking for power multiswitch for FTA

    I always take precaution when handling the switches and Diseqc, power off all my receivers (including unhooked the power cord), follow some good advice from this board. So could be my 2x1 Diseqc not able to handle the load when using that many LNBs. Compression connectors - I have the tools, so...

    Buying microHD in Toronto Canada??

    Once I got the clarification over the phone order...I just ordered the units, the discount alone offset shipping charges for Canadian! Heck, my Openbox cost more than that micoHD, not to mention without any future support (knock wood it doesn't break down tomorrow) down the road. For that...

    Nfusion Phoenix and multi-switch issue

    The switches are Zinwell (4x4, 2x1) and they are working properly with other receivers other than this Nfusion unit. I must have missed something obvious...Just can't be that difficult to set it up.

    New newbie...same old problem: 70% signal, 0 quality!

    I am a newbie and been through your situation...I'll do my best to describe the procedure. Make sure, 1. The mast must be stable. It should not tilt with the dish on it. 2. The mast must be 100% plumb. Put a level on top of the mast ensure all side are 100% level! This step is very critical...

    Puzzle on my VisionSat receiver through 4x4 switch

    I tried the Zinwell 4x4 and a Zinwell 3x4 switches, play with the connection combinations, didn't work well. I'll pickup some 2x4 switches and try it out. Just my bad luck, pick the wrong receiver to start off with a 4x4 switch.:(

    Puzzle on my VisionSat receiver through 4x4 switch

    Yes, very weird...It is a challenge for me. I'll try your suggestions, and play around with the output and cables. Without the 4x4 multi-switch, I can get two receivers (VisionSat, ViewSat) to work properly using two 2x1 DiSeqC switches. However, my third VisionSat receiver will not work as a...

    Puzzle on my VisionSat receiver through 4x4 switch

    It is just strange that this only happen on VisionSAT receiver... I did flip the connections with 95W to "22KHz" and 97 to "SATA (101)". The result on VisionSat receiver was: - I got back all signals on all transponders for 97W. - I lost all signals on all transponders for 95W. Seems like...

    Now that I have two FTA dishes up and tested working properly with a receiver via 4x1 Diseqc. I'm looking to get a multi-switch for three receivers (Viewsat and 2 Visionsat).

    Will my receivers able work with these motors - SG2100 and HH-90

    Only one motor, it is intended for the 36" dish. The 30" dish is fixed, point to 95W. So standard linear LNB is the way to go based on your information. I can change the other universal one to standard get things consistent if required. The multi-switch is for multiple receivers from two dishes.
