    MOST ACTIVE SATELLITES

    I have a 10 foot dish with a 922 that I have not used or had it to receive the signal. I also have a fortec receiver. I almost have it ready but lack the courage to move it and mess up what I presently have. If I get rid of the 922 and get a new and better receiver I have a guy that would help...

    COMPARING RECEIVERS

    I have read all concerning the Azbox Elite hd and the visionsat IV 200 pvr plus and I would appreciate a comparison between these two in one thread. I have the 922 and a Fortec and I understand these will not bring in hd if I am correct. I believe the Azbox is probably the best at this present...

    DSR 920 SEEMS TIRED

    As I have my receivers in for repair I thought I would try out the 920 once more. I do not have a remote for this unit and the switch seems to not turn on the 920. Does it also have a battery? I would appreciate directions on how to proceed or should I send it in for repair also? thanks

    FAVORITE RECEIVER

    The replies are very interesting as well as educational for me. Probably most would love to have the top of the line, but this will take time--at least for me. With me just starting out I have some distance to cover before my thoughts can be brought to light. It does not hurt to wish.

    MOTORIZED DISH ADJUSTMENT

    The axis bar would be straight up and down and slanted with the dish, is this right?

    MOTORIZED DISH ADJUSTMENT

    I have a 10 foot perforated, motorized dish that the former owner gave up on and he never had it set properly. When the dish is pointed south should the driver bar which is the bar that has two pivot places to the dish be set straight up and down and straight with the dish? My words are...

    RECEIVER

    I have a 922 that has been checked out and I know it is a lot of work to get it on line so I thought something else might be easier. Just desiring to pull in as much as possible. I have a 10 foot dish.

    RECEIVER

    Would it be correct to say the Quali-tv 1080i is the better receiver? If so how much better is it than the Motorla 922? I have read the reviews and I would appreciate input so I can evaluate all for purchase. thanks

    You guys that pray to the satellite Gods...

    We are about 30 miles north of the Gulfport Mississippi coast and it seems from the news that it may not be as bad as the last hurricane. I do not think I could take the cleanup and repair if it was like the last hurricane. We have tied down and stored anything that could fly thru the air. It is...

    v3000 G box

    With the remote turning off the receiver it is still powered up on the terminal for the actuator. Something must be locked up in the receiver.

    v3000 G box

    This is a correction to what I stated earlier. If we leave the wires on the motor terminal of the receiver, it will swing back to the east real fast. I have removed the wires going to the actuator from the receiver but the receiver terminals are still getting the signal to move. If you have...

    v3000 G box

    I have a 10 foot dish with a von weise actuator . The dish can be parked in the south and it wil move on its own as far east that it can move. I have removed the actuator wires from the receiver and it will still move far east. When moving from the east to the south the actuator moves...

    v3000 G box

    I went thru the wiring and have that part straightened out. Seem to have problems with the dish moving on its own at times, it will go all the way to the east from the west. Not sure yet what is causing this problem?

    v3000 G box

    I have a 920 and 922 receiver and a 10 foot diameter dish. On trying to set them upthe receiver will not allow any dish movement. It states the receiver has reached its physical limits. According to the Motorla guide this should not happen during set up. Am I in error? How does the receiver get...

    v3000 G box

    I have a mercury star receiver and I am thinking of purchasing the power tech v 3000 to move the dish. My motor and polarizer are hard wired and it looks like the v3000 would take care of this very good. If I am correct how would the mercury be connected to the dish mover? Please make it simple...

    Fortec Star

    To wire up the Fortec Star to operate the actuator--the same dish wire operates the actuator. Please explain how this will operate and how the voltage wires are attached. I just do not have a grasb on this and I may go this way has my other boxes will not work proper. Needless to say I have run...
