    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    http://www.satelliteguys.us/free-air-fta-discussion/267396-manhattan-3-2-firmware-update-4.html I have reported this issue several times. The last time was reported here at the above link, Post number 34. I guess nobody reads my posts......... This has been reported to Manhattan over a couple...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    Some people are "old school". Even I might toss a servo controlled feed up and play with it. When that is done a seperate receiver controlls the polarity. So scanning just one polarity is needed so when done, you have time to change the polarity with the controlling receiver. Also, some birds do...

    For the record...... My baby here. I sent the wrong file.... I'm human. I could of just as easily sent you a pm asking. Live and learn. :o

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    The fact that there was different firmware floating around was mentioned clear back in this post on 8-11...... Just put this out there so people will be reminded that us testers are using different firmware than the rest. It seems to of slipped peoples minds.... Hopefully all us that are...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    I never mentioned you. I was talking about complaints in general. And showing the screens was far from moot. That's how you found out about the differnet firmware now isn't it? So since no questions were asked, it appears that we still got to the destination, just had to take a bumpier...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    I swore on my mothers grave that I sent you the latest because you couldn't open up your attatchment.... My apoligies. See, I make mistakes too. But at least I will attempt to make it right. A simple e-mail or PM from you asking about if I was sure I sent the right firmware to you could have...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    You're being a little too defensive about this receiver. I have two of them, and neither offers the options you show in your post. That's what I'm saying, and what Iceberg is saying. We want this receiver to get worked out right, but we don't have stock in the company Your insinuations are...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    Iceberg has the same firmware I have........ So........ The post he made confused me. I get defensive of anyone when people complain about something that there should be no complaint about! I see so many posts that... "This receiver x is junk because I don't have a lock on such and such...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    Everyone here should know that those of us that are testing do have upgraded firmware. We have mentioned that for weeks. Jeff explained to everyone at the top of this page about securing the firmware. If I were everyone here waiting for an update, I would be very happy that they are getting...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    The settings are there............. How about trying that again.....Flip through those options and then tell if the receiver "don't have" them............. The receiver was set to motor, then ant setup, then motor settings.... In there you will find the diseqc 1.0 and 1.1 settings.... What is so...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    That was one of the first things I noticed.. For example on AMC-3 C-band, doing a blindsacn will lock in a transponder. After the scan there is no signal. What I did was go to tp list, and changed the frequency one up. Then it pops in. You are correct that it don't happen very often. But it is a...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    I can see some improvements that can be made to all receivers. Why they are not made is anyones guess. As for my statement that you quoted me on, Call it closed minded all you want. It is fact that a pc card has much more "hardware" to rely on. Fact, it needs a computer. Fact, No set top box...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    Well my bad. Probably a bad choice of words on my part. The point I was trying to make is simple. The PC card has much more in the way of resources as it is designed to work with a PC. It utilises the PCs power and circutry to an extent. The STB does not have that luxery. Any way one slices it...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    I think that says it all right there.... The Pansat 9200 is a higher end receiver. And if that can't get it........ And the unity is as you stated, a commercial receiver. So the statement And the one that was made in the beginning..... Is not exactly an honest one since you are...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    Skysurfer, What receiver are you using that scans in the channels that you are not getting with the Manhattan? I re-read your first post on this issue and did not see another receiver mentioned. Note: I just ran that scan with my Pansat...... My 9200 also gets the same thing the Manhattan...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    100 sats, 7000 channels is the limits of the receiver. I will check this out today using your criteria my friend. I do have one question however.... Is it possible that the pid info is not being broadcast like the CW channels on G-17? Or we just talking missed Sr? Those don't scan either...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    I don't see any duplicates.... Maybe I am misunderstanding you. I did not delete any TP either before the scan. I havn't had any duplicate signals yet, so I just scan and add to the TP list. I will delete and scan to see what I get. By all means do not load any firmware from July! It was...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    Skysurfer, I just read your post so I scanned satmex5...... I scanned in 48 channels. That said, I don't know what firmware you have. The early firmware dated for May has a few refinements that need to be made. A few of us that are testing, have firmware that is being tested at the moment. Many...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    All of the issues that have been mentioned over and over again like the switch issue are being addressed just as has been said time and time again. That is what I have been told. That is what I am waiting for. As for me? I am happy with my manhattan. I run a system like the fta community was...

    Mann I give up.... Where did you ever get that I don't like people like you????? Where did I say that the Manhattan is S**t? Show me the quote. I give up. With that kind of attitude, I hope Jeff stays out of site! Reread my post. I'm done here... Can't explain anything without getting...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    All I know is what was said here before... There was a change between 4 meg and 2 meg in the receiver. So the code was going to get a complete going over. That's all I know..... Now lets get this through everyones thick head.........I am not a spokesman for ANYONE! This thing that everyone...

    Review of Manhattan RS-1933

    I should add... A total re-write of any firmware takes about a month. So it should be soon for the manhattan provided there are no setbacks. Have a grat day!
