    DIRECTV at hotel super slow

    I was smart and stayed at a Holiday Inn Express 2 nights last weekend. :) But seriously, they had a DIRECTV system that was painfully slow. Being totally ignorant about these systems, all I know is it consisted of about a 40” TV with a rear HDMI or USB connection from the TV to wall. No actual...

    AMIKO New Amiko HD 265, some questions

    I just got my new Amiko HD 265 hooked up yesterday. Got everything set up to my liking, and been working with it the last 2 nights. It's been solid, never locked up or crashed. I have noticed some things. 1. I can get most channels, but for the life of me, I can't get it to scan in Fox...

    5g interference?

    I'm wondering if I am getting 5g interference. Over about the last month I am getting a lot of pixellation, and now it's even on very strong channels like NASA with 99% quality.

    How much does the scalar ring affect signal quality?

    I have my dish up and tuned in quite well. Still using the existing wire run into my camper, as I won't be running new wire until the snow is gone and the ground thaws. June perhaps. My setup uses the Chaparral Corotor. When I installed it I lathe bored the existing Ma-Com scalar for a very...

    Wire for 10 ft dish install

    I just moved to a new house this year and took my 10 ft dish with me. The HOA at the other place had been whining about it for the 17 years I was there. New house agricultural zoning and 9 acres yay. Anyway, I got the dish up and dialed in. Old cable is run into my camper parked next to it...
