I just picked up one of these receivers (GI VideoCipher II Super2400R) and I do have the manual for it, also picked up the 2000PS Antenna Positioner Power Supply. Not sure what I'm gonna try and do with it yet, but was wondering what kind of LNB I could use with it. It does do Ku band acording...

I would love to win the new FTA receiver. Always love trying new things out. This FTA stuff is starting to become an obcession rather than a hobby hehe, jk. :) - Mike

Yeah, the DiSCeQ switch I have cost me a whole $8 CDN, i t's a Digiwave. My old boss sells them at his store, altho he knows nothing about satellite stuff, he sells it anyways. which is good because I can get wholesale prices from him, so I'm not complaining. :) I figure I might just buy...

Yeah, it is too bad about the stupid trees, but apparently my neighbor is a privacy nut. We trimmed them last summer and even then he himmed and haw'ed about what we trimmed. but we had to it was BAD and pine tree branches drapped over and even touched cars in the driveway, what a sappy mess...

Welp, I did finally get around to it around 6:30pm, drug the monitor and receiver outside and began to hunt for IA5 and after some playing around, and I believe I did have to raise my elevation a little, don't remember exactly, but I weakly found IA5. Most of the channels that do come in, are...

however, Echo 7 (119W) also has some FTA audio channels aside from the NASA chanel. Music can be just as good as TV at times. :)

I might have to try that just for something to do. Hopefully the weather will be good on the weekend I might do it. Have to drag the monitor and receiver outside. Also, as mensioned, if you look in the same general direction as the dish is pointing, it's right beside a stupid pine tree but I...

Oh, Sorry, should have clarified that a little more. No 119 channels during the scan of G3C. A scan of 119 gives me the 119 channels only, so the switch appears to be working just fine as a standard 22Khz switch. Maybe once I get bored again, I'll try and move the SC dish to another sat...

Using the SC Switch, I have 119W on Sat A, and G3C 95W on Sat B. I'm only using 1 of the 2 SC Lmbf's, the other didn't seem to give me anything when I was playing around the other day so I stuck with the one only. Blindscanning G3C, as 10750 Standard, I get 4 Horizontal TP's donno how many...

Well, I think the DiSEqC switch might have issues. Might have to take it back. It appears (if I watch the signal meter) that it keeps switching between the 2 lmbfs. The signal goes from 72 to 80 (The SC lmbf's Signal Level is the 72% and the Dish lmbf is the 80+% level). I've got a SC...

Yeah, I have told the receiver which dishes were on which port, and it's easy to tell if it's right because the signal level is slightly different for each dish. :) The receiver is a Pansat 2700 Clone (It was free :P). And no, I just did a blind scan, I know very little about the Sat, I...

I have 2 dishes connected to a DiSEqC 2.0 switch and have a weird issue. When scanning the satellite for the dish connected to port #2 I tend to pick up vertical transponders located on the dish on port #1, is this normal? I have Dish1 on E* 119 W and dish2 on Galaxy 3C/Ku. (95 W) Dish1...

If you want something cheaper, look around at local flea markets and you could probably pick up a cheap Commodore monitor from a Commodore 64 or Amiga for $10 or $20... That's what i use... A 13" Commie monitor and drag that and the receiver outside. Alot better than trying to listen for the...

Can't offer a whole lot of help, but I read somewhere the Local LMB frequency for the starchoice LMBs are 10750 Or something like that? The 22Khz tone is only to switch between which lmb you want to use as the Starchoice Switch is a 22Khz switch, Sat A = No 22Khz Tone, Sat B = 22KHz On...
