kicad is a good one. A bit of a learning curve. Cad models are downloadable from Mouser and Newark, although libraries are out there if you search. Drawing simple circuit diagrams is pretty simple. From design to production. And it's free!

At times a bit laggy opening the page. And delays opening posts. If this server is in the CONUS maybe block that whole region.

I use Polyphasers also. I would bet if you look at the pc boards of almost every device out there that has a port for external cabling. You will find TVS voltage clamps. So. Although you may not use them, any voltage spike above 6-7 volts gets routed straight to the ground plane. Before they...

Why. Why is this needed. A statement. Self proclaimed 'engineers' on a soap box irk everyone. On the bright side, there are brushup courses. No. Really! They even bring out a bit of a positive outlook on folks. Lot's of words, little proof. Like a lecture with no lab. Where's the fun in that...

Man. Sometimes it's like you need and extra few sheets of charmin on top after the tank is full again before pushing the handle. Looking at Amazon ring chow ping from Shenzhen UPS's? "Ones worth having". A look at the little pictures or one step deeper at the user guide. If you need it and it's...

Pardon me. Most UPS's WORTH owning. Better? Surge suppressor....not surge preventer or arrestor.

Wiring carried in EMT, various conduits are commonly THHN stranded. And contains ground that is green in color. Follow the NEC and local codes and you'll be kosher. As far as coax grounding goes. There are grounding blocks and surge suppression devices. Heck. Most UPS have coax in/out provisions...

Just suggesting. Compare the 2. Are you sure your lnbf isn't turned 90 degrees and the H antenna probe is actually aligned to V. And possibly you're receiving Digicipher channels from 103W. I could be wrong.

Am I not seeing things right? On the buttonhook feed your lnbf heat sink is pointing up. And in the support arm pic it is 90 degrees off to the right. Means to me that since there is no 101W V. But you are getting SID's that are similar to V polarization on 103W 4180. Is it possible that you...

I guess since it works I'd still be interested in finding the circuit mod. So far a search here didn't lead me to the post. But still it raises a question. With a single-in receiver. In tuner setup for E2. You can only select that port for a single lnb, lnbf. Or did I miss something? With a 2...

It's a 2012 Mitsubishi After my last post. Lo and behold about an hour or so after, got a call from SXM Corporate Customer Care in S. Africa. Spoke with a gal. Questioned why I was getting a call from there and not from the USA. Gave a bit of info. and was told that I was eligible for the same...

That perked me up enough to call SXM and stress speaking with an rep. in the USA. Which turned out to be in Canada. Louis and Ian. Supers. I asked to be connected with one. The best they can do is $5.00/mo. plus taxes and fees. Works out to $6.31 a month. Over and over. The second call after...

Thanks Bri. Already have most of my C band xml done. A bit. Not much work. No extra hardware or mods needed. And tested. I have no 5G interference out here in the sticks. Hopefully I can snag a couple of Norsat's that work. Knowing little but what's still bolted to my Chaparral polorotor C/ku...

Like the subject says. Wondering how it's usually done. I see tek has a 13/18 volt switch. I just refuse to buy anything from him. Other searches come up a bit blank. It might be covered in the archives here but that's some deep searching. In the interim. Although it might not be kosher. I was...

Kind of seriously disagree using Administrator as your everyday login. I do use auto login with my user account still by running control userpasswords2. Done that for years. By using Administrator as your regular login. It's highly unlikely that you're going to use a long password with a string...

I would almost guarantee that the others aren't far off from rotting through. Especially if there are no weep holes drilled at the lowest spot on them. EMT conduit is engineered for outdoor use and is thin walled but rigid enough to just fabricate new arms. Sleeving them would be okay if you...

Nope. Even required when "run as administrator".

I'd get some conduit and duplicate a good arm. Grab a spray can of etching primer and spray inside the new tube before you smash the ends shut. Spray enough to let it pool up and slosh it around inside. A vice would be nice. Or a couple of boards and a hammer to sandwich it in. Probably check...

only if you pay for what you get with what they sell you..... 'nuff said.

Another annoyance with 11. When click on a .exe or .msi installer and it just sits there. Right click on the file and unblock it.

I would trust the scanners that Pine Hills Auto Diagnostics and even Scotty Kilmer uses every single day in their work. If you want a simple scanner to check and clear codes, then your local auto parts stores have a good selection. You might even get lucky and find someone there that has...

Well holee-molee. There's your problem, Mister. All wires running together in the same cable. No bwayno. The sensor wires always at least have a shield wrapped around them if they are in the same cable. No amount of twisting and separating will fix that. The sensor wires in the same sheath are...

Don't be brand worthy. Superjack clones are rampant. I bought one from tek. It lasted about 2 years and I paid dearly for it. The gears ate themselves up. Poor weather sealing on the motor. Usual periodic teardowns. BTW I live in the North with nasty winters. If you got X years out of one then...

Yes. A 0.1uF disc capacitor. Not electrolytic. Across the motor terminals can help reduce some motor hash that may cause false triggers. Extra counts would be an indication that motor noise is inducing to the sensor wires. But it could go both ways I guess. I would be very interested in seeing...
