    Sonicview SV-360 Elite PVR Receiver with no quality

    I have a Sonicview SV-360 Elite receiver which picks up channels in Blind Search and the video and audio quality is good, but even though I get good strength, my quality is 0 for every satellite. Can anyone tell me is this normal since my old receiver did give both when scanning for channels. I...

    Dish service turning off TV after about 30 minutes

    Can anyone tell me how I can stop Dish Network receiver from turning off after about 30 minutes of being in use. I am tired of turning the receiver back on. Sometimes it does it in less than 15 minutes and of course I am talking about the manufacturer of course. I never had that problem when I...

    Sonicview 360elite pvrneeds to be updated ?

    I have a lnbf which is round and came with my Satoun system and did work fine until recently. I didn't know the part about this type of product not being compatible with FTA. It looks sort of like the ones on the Directv and Dish lnbf's except mine is for a motorized system.

    Sadun Motor DD-280 does not move

    I have a similar problem with my DG-270 motor and it will move manually to the West, but will go back to the East all the way. I get good signals on my receiver, but can't get any channels due to this problem. I will try disconnecting the cable from the motor and pressing the buttons for 5...

    Broadcasting/Cable article on Me/Antenna TV

    I love that show and the only place I see it here is on subscription TV on TVLand and a few others. If they are on RTV I must be tunning in at the wrong time and missing it.

    New shows coming to Me-TV

    We still have RTV here in Central Arkansas run by the local ABC station and there are many programs I watch on it. We don't have MeTV yet that I know of. I usually watch the RTV programs when there is nothing else worth watching on the other channels. There are times when I am watching the news...

    Poles/Mounts Optional?

    I thought that I had enough dishes in my yard, but mine are professionally done and wind won't move them either. That city must not have a ordinance about property upkeep of property with that mess in the yard. If I lived in the Chicago area they would fine me for having one probably.

    Number of Satellite FTA Users?

    It can be additive as you roam through the channels. Too bad there isn't more English channels on the Ku satellites though. My favorite is the VA and Pentagon channels since I am a retiree and want to keep in touch with what is new. I like some of the news channels also to get an independent...

    SV-360 Normal Signal & No Quality

    The tree's don't help. I guess that my next purchase will be another Fortec Star receiver since it seems to be a better receiver. I just wish that I knew how to upload new files to this Mercury II receiver so I could let the SV-360 just collect dust and consider it a loss.

    SV-360 Normal Signal & No Quality

    I think that I have figured out what has happened after getting AMC1 channels to work on my TV. The Walnut tree's must be blocking my view of the satellites in one direction. I knew that I was not getting a Quality reading in most cases, and I guess that I did receive a good quality reading on...

    SV-360 Normal Signal & No Quality

    I have the Sonicview 360 Elite which when searching for channels on a satellite gives the strength which is good, but no quality on any satellites. My old Mercury II receiver which has software problems, but does show the channels it's picks up perfectly. The new receiver is connected back...

    Uploading new files for Mercury II

    My Mercury II receiver lost the longitude and latitude information for all the satellites and I am trying to install the files from Fortec Star into this receiver from my laptop computer. What I need is instructions on how to do this since I can't find the manual for this receiver.

    Good signal and no quality with Sonicview 360 Elite

    I have a Sonicview 360 Elite and it is connected to a Fortec Star motorized dish. There is good signal on the receiver, but no quality on it. It finally picked up some channels from one satellite, but no video from those channels even though they are FTA. I had a Mercury II which came with the...

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    I have solved the problem with the receiver after finding the manual for the TV. All I had to do was press the "HDMI" button on the TV to change the connection type to "HDMI" and I got a picture. I called the Directv representative and found that I was suppose to have a card for the receiver I...

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    I figured what the problem is. I was trying to connect the receiver to an Analog TV which this unit was not designed for. I finally figured out that this unit is designed for the Digital TV's only and why no RG-6 cable runs from the receiver to the TV which only has an RG-6 connection on it. I...

    Model H24-100 Receiver connection

    I have a new H24-100 receiver which replaced an older one which is connected to a flat panel TV directly. The old receiver worked great with this TV and with the new one I have it connected using the RCA cables and it does not show a picture at all. There is a "No Signal" message on the TV...

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    After further examination of the manual I figured this receiver is only for digital televisions and not the analog tv which I have. The television has to be connected by some RCA wires for video and audio which my TV don't have. It will go back into the box and my Mercury II will be hooked back...

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    After all the time I spent trying to get this receiver to work with my Analog TV, I have come to the conclusion that it is only designed for digital TV's. I want to thank everyone for their assistance and I will box it up and go back to my Mercury II after receiving a serial/USB cable which I...

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    My manual which came with the receiver is a gray scale as if printed on a black/white printer and not in color. The remote seems to be real and works to turn on and off the receiver. I got it from Allstar Wholesales and everything looks real on the receiver. If I buy another one it will probably...

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    What do you recommend to use it with one RG-6 cable from one dish? I am not doing any recording with this unit and it really has more features than I will ever use. I just want to connect my rg-6 cable to the receiver, and from there to my TV.

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    It may work great if you have 2 lnbf's which I don't and right now it is a piece of junk for me. As frustrated as I am it may end up being a target for my rifle so I can satisfy my frustration.

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    I don't think you would want to Mercury II since it has lost it's satellite information and only has a serial plug to put reinstall this information. None of the computers I have can connect to it because of the lack of a serial plug on the computer. None has it.

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    There is no signals received by the TV, even after using a splitter so connect it up. I am just trying to obtain FTA signals like I got with my older receiver. No recording or anything like that. Getting the picture is my first priority right now. The company selling it should be ashamed at how...

    Getting a Sonicview receiver

    I only have one LNBF on my one motorized dish coming in to the receiver. I have gotten a Radio Shack Splitter and made two RG-6 lines with connectors on each end and one cable from "B in" to Set 1 plug on splitter. The other cable is connected from set 2 on splitter to "A out" on receiver. The...
