Ive used a BUD for over 25 years.Started with a Channel Master 8 ft rotary dial with LNAs and a down converter.Everything was FTA. Upgraded as time went by to keep up with the encoding/scrambling. I parked the newest dish,a 10 ft channel master and GI/Motorola 920 when it reached the 1080 count...

I guess I need to update my factory file on CS6100 I see 1.16 is out and thats about 3 yrs newer than what I have. How do I install without losing my diseq settings?

the ole coolsat6100 and GI 4DTV to try and get some Xmas audio I couldnt find anything. Since the digital switch to locals I havent played with FTA much Im pretty bummed that I can get nothing. Ive got C band and Ku and also Ku circular with many feedhorns and a 10 ft mesh dish. Is there...

Can I use one coax for my C band and OTA? I have places in my house(2 story vaulted ceilings) that will be hard to run new cable.

I know Ill get blasted but in experimenting with my new Zenith 901 converter box I tried all the rabbit ears I have and none compared to the cheapo ac wiring to coax box thingy. I picked up 4 stations over the best powered inside antenna I have. Hoax or not this thing works. Yes Im alittle...

Seems like none of the threads on converter boxes are very organized as a review. So Im thinking that between myself and a buddy of mine we will get different ones and compare. Choices at Rat Shack are the Zenith 901 and the DS 9950. Im really leaning towards the Apex DT250 but cant find any...

Just got my coupons for analog box. Thought I would go here first as you guys are the ones whos opinion I would value the most. What brand and where should I get it from the list it looks like about 40 choices.

Tried to find PBS stuff on AMC-3 so I could see the Hendrix special. All I got was Arabic stuff. I even tried a manual scan on 12179 but I get nothing Are there any other PBS locations ?

Dont remember what sat it was but a few months ago I ran into one that had a great selection of audio. Dont remember if it was C or Ku band either. Any thoughts as to where it was?

If anyone finds anything interesting please PM me. Ive got C band,Ku band,DSR 920 and FTA.

To give you the short version Im helping a friend whos had to move and leave his DISH dish but got a receiver . We tried to adapt a twin dual Legacy LNB to a single LNB Sony dish I gave him with so so results.Now have acquired a triple Direct TV dish that says it gets 101,110.119. What king of...

I would like to see posts with pics of the most outrageous BUDs (working of course) Ive seen some with a lineup of LNBs of at least 10 on one dish. This kinda goes with the pics of the knarly ones hanging on trees and fence posts but on the opposite end of spectrum. Specs if available would be a...

The one I got wont open McAfee says its got a trojan. Does anyone have a clean example? I want to try this for loading Channelmaster

I would like to try this but dont want to smoke it. I would like to use the S video next to the box for large TV and feed the rest of system via the RF. I realize all will view the same channel. Its a CoolSat 6100 thanks

Im finally getting the signal stuff sorted out and as soon as the correct power block splitters get here I want to hook everything up permanently. So the question is how can this all be wired and controlled for the easiest operation for other family members. Heres a list of hardware 10ft...

In all this excitement of getting Ku band tuned in I tried today for C band and its blank. I knew some analog channels were going OTA but figured I could always depend on G4-16. Now its not there either. Only thought is that in the last few days all the switching around has killed the LNB. What...

Where can I get this without subscribing to a forum thats questionable?

We lost NASA a few years ago when analog went. Now that I have Ku can I get it back? Ive noticed its on 119*W but it says its circular. Ive heard that circular can be picked up with the new LNBF C-Ku but Ive got a co rotor2 and traditional LNBs.Im sure having a 10 ft dish will help somewhat...

Where did this come from and will it do circular or linear or both? Can I mount it on my BUD next to the C band feedhorn and find a spot on the dish it will pick up something?

Is there any downloads for Coolsat that wont void my warranty to put in all the FTA channels and Sats and let me chose which ones I want to put in the favortites? Surely theres got to be a better way than scanning each sat individually. Theres already a gzillion sats(60 to be exact) programmed...

Now that Ive got my Ku problem fixed Im on the hunt for more stuff. My DSR920 doesnt do much for FTA on Ku ( I do enjoy the audio stations on X4 tho as those were lost sometime back on C band.) What is the most active sat for test and tune for Ku? I can set my big dish up on one TV and position...

Got my new(old stock but new in box)CoRotorII today and found out what my problem has been.Seems as tho the seller of this used CoRotor1 modified it to the point that Ku was useless. I was getting no Ku signal with the DSR920 but got something showing level on my CS6100. I was told that was...

I still havent got any Ku signals but trying to eliminate everything that may be the problem. Ive got the CoolSat 6100 hooked up to the Ku LNB and I get something on the level meter in the dish setup function. Does the red level indicators mean that my LNB is working but just not getting a...

Im struggling with setting up my CS6100. I havent yet got my BUD to pull in Ku so I figured I would try it out on C band. 10ft dish Co rotor with 17* Cal Amp LNB C band 6* Norsat LNB Ku band Im slaving the CS off my DSR 920,using it for dish positioning. Last night I...

Got another Ku LNB(Thanks George) to test and tune with. Ive tried the X4-G4,X0-G0,T7-L7 with no luck. What is the strongest Ku signal I can get so I can tune the dish? Im getting 99 on the C band side so it cant be that far off. I havent even begun to try the CS6100 yet .... I wont until Im...
