    Multi-Provider MDU Installation

    My LNB is correct but!!??

    Can you clarify a little? Are you using two separate 1.8s? Did you have any difficulty with 107? I tried in Guatemala and only was able to lock in 111.

    Something to consider re: D* CSR reps

    Yep. I've had more than one "conversation" with the Filipino CSRs. Ok for simple stuff, forget about anything even remotely complex.

    Bizarre problem with Xbox360 HD-DVD and Heroes Disc 2!

    Never mind! After running a search on a couple other forums I ran into the fix: delete all files from the system/memory/HD-DVD section and reload disc. It will take around 3 minutes to load, but will do so eventually.

    Bizarre problem with Xbox360 HD-DVD and Heroes Disc 2!

    I pre-ordered Heroes on Amazon and got it the day after the release. Much to my disappointment, Disc 2 of the set would not play. Called Amazon, got an RMA and had a replacement sent. Got the replacement yesterday. Well dangit Disc 2 from this set won't play either!!! All others, from 1...

    HR20 and Heavy Rain

    Fans activate when I turn on my Home Theater (HT) receiver. The 12v trigger activates a switched outlet on a Panamax 5510EX, which controls the fans.

    HR20 and Heavy Rain

    Yes, same exact thing has happened to me, with an HR20-700. After an unusually heavy rain, the receiver will be frozen, with a pixellated screen. Either an unplug or RBR will fix the situation... until it rains heavily again. Under normal circumstances all signals are in the 90's. I do use a...

    MDU Systems + MPEG4 + 5 LNB Dishes

    Pace is NOT a retail entity, which is why many of their items are not priced on the web. I'd call them anyway to get an ETA for the MFH-2

    Help w/ Echostar 3 in South America

    I just found a footprint map to back my statement. No way you can get E3 in Brazil, sorry. Here's the map: http://www.geo-orbit.org/westhemipgs/fecho3p.html I would go about it another way: look up the channels you want/need and then see if there are C-band alternatives or mirrors.

    Help w/ Echostar 3 in South America

    I seriously doubt that you'll be able to get signal from this satellite. It's set up for CONUS coverage and Brazil's just too far to the south.

    FS: *C DSR 505 Activated

    I'm willing to go so far as shipping it before payment, and getting paid when it arrives, so there is no risk involved to the buyer. Of course if someone tries to nail me by saying it never arrived I just deactivate the thing and report it stolen.

    Scott's DirecTV Diary Comments

    Re: Scott's experience with a rude CSR: welcome to D* CSR roulette! Whenever I get a noncooperative or rude CSR I just hang up and call again. Most of the time the second call gets you a much more understanding and friendly person. If the second call doesn't work try again, and if THAT...
