    trying to update software in a Coolsat 8000

    I recently purchased coolsat 8000 receiver, It has SW 11170A how do I get it to 2025A. I've ran upgrade 3.01 uploader and downloaded files from here. But I cannot get coolsat 8000 to recognize the upgrade. What is proper sequence? Turn receiver on off at what point? Thanks in advance!

    Montana pbs impossible to catch

    My Azbox Elite AMC 21 PBS Coordinates, It Is Slaved to a coolsat 6000 which controls H/V. I blind scanned feeds. I saved one vert and one horizontal and renamed channels (AMC 21 PBS Vert) and (AMC 21 PBS Horiz). When I want to watch LPB I put on (AMC 21 PBS Horiz) & the OETV, Montana PBS, PBS HD...

    Montana pbs impossible to catch

    I have a stand alone primestar 1 meter wide x 1 meter plus 10 cm tall dish. The lnbf 0.2 top is about at 10 o'clock instead of straight up. I have a stronger signal to my azbox elite when it is slaved to a coolsat 6000 than when it is connected directly. I have a power block switch to keep from...

    125 West AMC21

    Looking from the front of the dish I have the top of lnbf at around 10 o'clock (12 o'clock being straight up). I use a 0.3 standard lnbf. Most satellites lnbf is mostly straight up, 12 o'clock. But, since I have a stand alone dish just like yours I thought I would chime in. I receive OETV fine...

    STAR CHOICE DISH

    What type lnb? Size Dish? If it has dual lnb (pick up sats 4 degrees apart) T5 97 (AMC 19) and W4 101 (AMC 4) would pick up some international, religious channels.

    thinking of buying a NEUSAT 9000 HD

    Neusat 9000 will run hot in any cabinet, I had to set outside cabinet by itself. With no other receiver on top. No more issues. Another thing about receiver, It will play ac-3 through audio video, coax. It will play sound on pbs feeds on amc 21. This receiver had several updates, converting to...

    thinking of buying a NEUSAT 9000 HD

    This receiver has issues sure, for a cheap price, it works good if you slave it to a Coolsat 5000 or 6000. picks up HD 4:2:0. I scan with coolsat, then enter found coordinates in. Sports feeds in 4:2:0 format, G16 abc hd, AMC 1 ion hd, plays fine, etc.. If you have a tv with several inputs...

    Looking for a Captain 8000HD manual

    I use the Captain 8000 (Converted Neusat 9000) as a slave to a coolsat 5000. Use it to pick up 2:0 hd feeds that the Coolsat can't pick up. No 2:2 though! I use the 2 user sats, one for ku other for c band. I will comment more if requested, as not much info on this receiver.

    Beginner Needs Help!!

    I just looked at the picture posted and there is not much movement allowed, probable rotation of dish is only option.

    Did you try rotatating LNB itself? From say 12 o'clock to 11 o'clock.

    Anyone have a Captain 8000hd receiver?

    The trouble with this blind scan same as neusat. You still cannot set parameters for just c or ku or dbs so it searches through all. Patience usually gets the best of me. Example: I'm 6 minutes so far on g10 scan and only 6 percent completed. Will let you know how long scan takes and what it...

    Neusat HD 9000

    I have accomplished by purchasing this receiver. (1) ac-3 direct to TV without special audio receiver. (2) 4:2:0 HD. (3) blind scan (but no way to set parameters, always a full scan) One negative not mentioned, no OTA scan or reception of local digital feeds.

    Neusat HD 9000

    Thanks for the info and help, just glad it does at least 4:2:0 hd. Was worried this receiver would not receive or scan any feeds. The main reason I bought this receiver was for college football feeds. If it will accomplish that, I will be happy. Would have loved 4:2:2 HD. But I knew the chances...

    Neusat HD 9000

    I replaced DiSEqC switch with sw21, put cband on sat1 and kuband on sat2. I found through research, the neusathd responds to it better. I was able to find more feeds through blind scan. Ex: Little League World series feed last night. Receiver will find 4:2:0 feeds. Still no 4:2:2 hd feeds. But...

    Neusat HD 9000

    I was using 4dtv Neb PBS as a reference that the BUD is alligned well enough to get these signals. I have the Neusat slaved to the 4dtv. I'll continue to search for answers. The Neusat would not recognise HD signal for espn MNF on G3, But will lock in 4 SF locals on same sat. My sboX dvb2300...

    Neusat HD 9000

    I am having trouble with the feeds, example football feeds on T6 I could not get a signal, even though my 4dtv setup can pick up Neb PBS. My coolsat 5000 would find these signals. This receiver makes me feel like a novice. The blind scan does not work very well for me, does not see all signals.

    Neusat HD 9000

    Was able to scan in PBS feed 511 and 513 ac-3 audio playing on tv audio. Still have to fine tune dish for PBS HD feeds. Signal of 67% Quality of 45% not quite strong enough for trial.

    Neusat HD 9000

    Yesterday Tuesday 08/07/07 I received this receiver in the mail. I tried PBS HD feeds, I seen signal, but not quite strong enough. Also, tried giants baseball FSN feed last night, not strong enough signal. Sounds like some fine tuning needs to be done. My BUD has a active 4dtv on that I slave...
