    Coolsat Are there any bin files to update a CS7100 hereabouts?

    Wow - that's about the best outcome I could hope for - that you'd arrive so promptly with such a clever hint at a solution, and nearly as promptly to show up to capitalize on that brilliant suggestion for me -- HUGE thanks would be in order, if I could type that big!!! I'll be trying this out...

    Coolsat Are there any bin files to update a CS7100 hereabouts?

    Jello Would like to TRY to knock some sense into my CoolSat 7100 with a firmware update, if I can find one. Are there any kept here for our access, or is this voodoo only undertaken by hackers of ill repute?? Sure seems like this shouldn't have taken all afternoon - but I'm afraid it has...

    Coolsat Coolsat 7100 firmware loading

    Wasted HOURS trying to find an update BIN file that I can try on my ailing 7100 -- and a friend's, which is ailing in a different manner, if a test run on mine doesn't brick the thing.... Is that something NOT done on this site, or is it my imagination?? Kinda unclear on what's worth trying...

    Download of TheList produces empty file

    Jello Please to forgive if this is discussed elsewhere -- I couldn't find it -- comes a point where it's wasted enough of my time, worthless though that may be deemed. I've tried several times/ways to D/L "The List" so that I can try to compile a compact list of TPs for easily ID-ing what bird...

    sonicveiw recievers?

    I smell. I mean - I SEE. Wrong sense. OK - so what of the general consensus re: SV-360 bang-for-buck, por favor?? I'm really disappointed w/ my GSP DVR-1100C, which cost me twice what these SV-360 Elites are going for. I guess I was HOPING that I'd get what I paid for on that thing, but...

    sonicveiw recievers?

    Pardon my LOL - but this (at first glance) (to MY twisted sense of humor anyway) sure READS like you (Ice) were sadistically HOPING that Dan would brick his w/ the same patch you used. Yes, I know I'm reading it differently than your intention, but it did crack me up! Cereally, though, does...

    Saving "pause live" recording w/ Coolsat 7100

    Woops - where's my MANNERS? Must needs rewind the passage of time here to say THANK YOU - for the answer, which works. Sure enough, that TS file has it. Admittedly, I was kinda hoping for the means to do it w/on the receiver, but - as they say: close enough for government work. Much grass...

    Saving "pause live" recording w/ Coolsat 7100

    I'm afraid the documentation leaves some things unexplained for my Coolsat 7100, on which hangs the external USB drive for recording stuff. What I have encountered several times now, and have been unsuccessful so far in every experimental thing I've tried, I'm wondering if anyone out there in...

    Cheap knock-off, or what???

    OK -- even I can detect the consistent direction of the sage advice here -- so I chickened out of the inexpensive experiment and went and got a dream machine (7100) instead. If someone doesn't jump out there, though, we may never know how good (or otherwise) their "deal" might be, but - as Bart...

    FTA receiver w/ NetFlix capability

    Hi all As I've been considering some new equipment lately, and am interested in ending up w/ something that will stream NetFlix and EweTooob and whatever from my LAN, I'm wondering if there's an STB that throws in such features. It looks like Azboxes do the latter, but - do they also do...

    Cheap knock-off, or what???

    Summer's greetings I'm curious about this inexpensive receiver that, although it appears to have been around for some years now, seems to have eluded any commentary from any consumers: Evolution FTA X0-01 Free To Air Satellite Receiver Even if this is just a clone, it seems that I...

    Can old Dish LNB work for FTA?

    I inherited an old DN dish/LNB (214-5100-400) and wondered if it would work w/ common FTA receiver. I can't seem to find info on it - like its LO (or ANY spec's, for that matter). Stupid question, perhaps, but I DID TRY to find something out by the usual (suspects) means. I'm guessing...

    Looking for ideas regarding programming for a local LPFM (low power FM)

    I do, AAMOF! What it's worth, I've no idea; have you any? (have an ABR200, that is)

    PC to STB comm via serial cable

    Addendum Thank you both for your quick RE's. I guess I should also have included in my list of attempts a Scientific Atlanta D9234 - not that it makes any difference. Here's the clue that I've gleaned that I need to try: rebooting the STB with the comm-link in place. I have noticed the...

    PC to STB comm via serial cable

    After spending some hours now perusing postings and trying to find answers to what I THOUGHT would have been discussed ad nauseum ere this, I'm giving up and posting in hopes of not wasting any more time. I've tried several FTA receivers lately, with no success, so I'm tired of groping in the...

    Manhattan Skyline 1000 questions

    Um - Harshness - Thanks, but - I tried DLing that manual twice from that link - got garbage both times, consistently. I'm in the opposite position from the OP: I know where the wife "relocated" the remote, but can't finger out what she did w/ the STB! So - OP - if you've not yet...

    Satellite System Controller Model 735

    OK... From the extended radio silence on this post, I suspect the following will be moot, BUT - I've actually laid my grubby little paws on a manual, of sorts, for this controller. I can't say it's been overly informative, as it addresses basic operations as opposed to any technical info, but...

    Satellite System Controller Model 735

    Jello all I'm looking for info on a gadgie attached to a SA PowerVu D9234 whose oversight I've inherited. Predecessor didn't document jack, set things up several years back and moved across the country. Reverse-engineering his numerous projects has taken me countless hours. This controller...
