Has anyone tried one of these? HDfury HDfury: Universal DVI/HDMI (HDCP) to RGB Converter 1080p on all computer monitors that were not formerly hdpc compliant! I can not wait to have full 1080p hd on my monitor! Plus you can make the old hd tv's that were not compliant work. I bet I can find...

I have an Olevia 227v 27 inch. As soon as you open the box, the instructions are ADAMANT that the first thing that you need to do is set the color temperature to 6500. (after making sure it is not on showroom display) It is in the instructions and also on a big sticker stuck to the front of the...

I have a dish pointed at echostar 7 for Nasa and the very good digital music there. I do not know if it is my new HDTV (Olevia, very nice) or my Viewsat or just the channel itself, but there is a green line going down the extreme left of the screen. It looks a lot like the code in the Matrix...

I am lazy. I successfully helped a guy install a 36'' geosatpro dish, sg2100, and captain 7000 box a few months ago. He only cares to watch the M2 Morocco channel on Galaxy 25. (He could've done without the motor but we installed it since he had it - just in case he wanted to watch something...

Which is better to use, a blind scan or regular? I am beginning to think that blind scans are only good for figuring out what exactly you are pointed at. If I do a normal scan on the transponders that are loaded in my Viewsat - they are weak. And I get a lesser amount than if I blind scan. But...

Thanks to the guys here on satellite guys - especially turbosat - I finally got my motor running and running nicely! Even though I have heard that the extreme was not good with motors. I now know otherwise. I have an sg2100 with a 2076 winegard and viewsat extreme. I set it up on my true south...

I went to go help a friend of a friend today to try and set up an FTA motor system. 30 something inch Fortec dish with an sg2100. I figured I could learn more about other equipment so I could better learn mine. His True South is AMC3 and we could not get ANYTHING on ANY transponder. He is from...

Ok. If you set the motor to zero - then use USALS to make it go to a certain satellite - then tweak it to get that satellite at peak signal and quality - then the motor then knows where the others are from that position. So does it really matter if it is the True South satellite? Could you not...

The big credit card dishes on gas stations look like they would make make great stationary FTA dishes. Or either smaller c band dishes. Any one ever used one? I work at the airport and we have (as most do) a WSI weather dish on the roof. I think it is made by Channel Master. It also looks like...

If you have 2 separate dishes pointed at the same satellite - is there a way to combine the signal strength from both for an overall better performance? Would the switch automatically combine the signal even though they are in different ports or would you have to change settings in the receiver...

Is this going to be an issue? I have a Wineguard 2076 31" dish with SG2100 motor and InvacomQuad Polar LNB. My latitude is 33.29 and longitude is 86.58. I set the latitude on the motor to 33 and when I went to set the number on the dish (which should be 40 degrees minus declination = 34.6) there...

I am having trouble figuring out WHERE on the 2100 to line up the bolts for elevation/latitude/etc... The directions aren't much help, as this does NOT look like 40 degrees to me!: Any suggestions? Thanks, -phil

I live in Alabama and just got back from Tokyo. Is there any way to watch the stations from over there here in America? The Japanese Internet TV stations (wwitv.com, beelinetv.com) are ok, but I would like to watch REAL Japanese tv with the adds included, not just prerecorded news feeds and...
