    Azbox ToolBox

    On two computers, I have Ubuntu 12.04. On one it is exclusively Ubuntu 12.04, and the other I dual boot with Ubuntu 12.04, and Windows XP. On the Ubuntu I have no virus program. And, on Ubuntu I have never caught a virus now for over several years. I had always ran several different free...

    Azbox Premium Plus - DMSI SG -2100 Motor

    Beavs2112, Thanks for all of the information! You have asked a very good question, and certainly deserves an answer. The motor did not fail! Someone hit it! It bent the arm extending to the LNB [Invacom QPH-031]. I believe it would have lasted for 50 years, had this not happened. My friend...

    Azbox Premium Plus - DMSI SG -2100 Motor

    Babadem, Presently, I am awaiting the arrival of the DG380. I had it ordered only a short time; hopefully, it may arrive tomorrow. I also ordered a compass from them. For $10.00. And, a incline meter. My research indicates that it may not be as good as the Stab HH 120. I have found some on...

    Azbox Premium Plus - DMSI SG -2100 Motor

    The SG 2100 with the 1.2 Fortec Star lasted approximately 20 minutes. Which motor will actually handle a Fortec Star 1.2? My opinion is the Stab HH 120 is a very good motor for a dish that size. However, I can not find a Stab HH 120. Thanks!

    sathero satellite meter

    ke4est, My problem all the time was my settings. The Diseqc switch had to be set correctly. I had quality at the pole with the meter. Had I practised more patience in front of the Azbox Premium Plus I would not have had to call the professional installer. He was reasonable, as he always is...

    AzBox Premium+ observations after 6 months

    The Azbox Premium Plus is a real learning curve. At the age of 50 I began to use computers. Now, I am 62. Approximately 3 years ago, I embarked upon Linux: Ubuntu. Azbox is Linux. The newer Azbox Me is reported as a receiver that is even harder to use than the Azbox Premium Plus...

    AzBox Premium+ observations after 6 months

    Much has been said about the Azbox Premium Plus! One could easily put it in two words: Azbox Rocks! As some have said that one needs computer skills to operate the STB. Moreover, (appreciatively) one needs skills in Linux. Linux being open source, I am beginning to wonder what will the...

    AzBox Premium+ observations after 6 months

    It would appear to be simply: Ohms law. IER: Volts, Ohms, Amperes. I have had my Azbox for over two years. It was purchased at the same time everyone was having problems with the power supply. I have always put my STB to sleep. Never turning it off. And, I have never unplugged the power...

    sathero satellite meter

    My personal opinion is that after doing research, it is uncontested: The Sathero has more capabilities, is less expensive, smaller; therefore, more practical for a ku band, in the price range of the two: First Strike, and Sathero. Admittedly, the First Strike has a very catchy name, F I R S...

    Azbox Premium Plus - DMSI SG -2100 Motor

    There appears to be several views; however, no replys. Has anyone else experienced this with the DMSI SG 2100. After some research I believe the newer DSMI SG 2100 does not have the reset button that can be reset with a paper clip. The manual says: "HARDWARE RESET" A. Turn off the power to the...

    Azbox Premium Plus - DMSI SG -2100 Motor

    For quite awhile, I have attempted to install a motorized dish for a friend of mine. Initially, it had a bigger motor, and worked alright with the Azbox, and a 1.2 pan. This new motor initially had power from the receiver, and made the motor work. And, the buttons to move it East to West...

    sathero satellite meter

    After some ardous work, I am beginning to understand the Sathero - 200. It would be nice to see a video on youtube. The one on youtube is no help. SatHero actually does much more than FS-1 such as DVB-S2, T8psk, DCII and DirecTV. FS-1 just does DVB-S. And, it is some cheaper.

    sathero satellite meter

    From my research the Sathero - 200 is considerably less expensive. And, I understand that the Sathero is supposedly more user friendly. However, I am having a problem in obtaining enough information to hook it to the motorized dish.

    After purchasing a Sathero - 200, I am not able to find any information on how to connect it to a motorized dish with an Invacom QPH-031, The motor became ruined by wind stripping the gears on a motor with metal gears. And, I will have to replace the plastic which held the LNB on the end of...

    Firmware Update: After installing the firmware, I wanted to see if it fixed youtube, and yes, it does! Additionally, I wanted to know if it fixed my issues with GBN on 72.0w. From the beginning when I would go to GBN on 72.0w it would take a while for the video to start. Then, it would take...

    AcWxRadar, Thanks! I am constantly over looking little things in the Azbox. After all, it is a real learning curve. Umm, I never fail to learn something! I thought it was a little thing that was being over looked! Thanks!
