    Brian, it has been at least three times you have asked me to open a new post about this! You sent me a new motherboard despite it being out of warranty, that did not fix it! Thank You Again for trying!! When I read about the ASC1 going away I bought one of the last ones available. It sat in...

    Asc1 Not Moving West

    Brian, he swapped the sensor wires, not the M1& M2 wires! Reread his his first post! JFOK, if the ASC1 is able to read counts in one direction, it can do so in the other direction! In other words, the sensor can be hooked up red to white or red to red or white to white, it is always going to...

    How to connect actuator/servo to receiver box

    Take another look at mrcleans second photo! The ASC1 will do all you say, but, what about that elevation motor, or whatever it is in the second photo? Also, look at the dish and the mount bolted to it. If put like that on a pole it would be looking straight up! It has no adjustments, It needs...

    Satellite TV spot on Beyond 2000 (80s?)

    Forget about home sat, keep watching past the eiffel tower, then you will get to the plastic engine for a race car! I have always wondered why so many critical parts on a car or truck engine were made of plastic! (plastic intake manifolds,with passages that carry very hot coolant- and others...

    Welcome to a new member! But, what dish are you using? How big is it? Which LNBF are you using? Are you already able to see other sats? Or is this your first time? I am a C_BAND guy myself, (sorry), but did you program in a known a good channel before searching?

    SES-1, H&I Mux Gone??

    Eugene, yes! Rescan! I also have to rescan on my 9000I but only to delete both new and old muxes! After the new scan, I can rename all those CH-1s to what I had them named to before!

    Choice of coax cable?

    How often do you want to have to trim back 2 or 3 inches on the ends when the center core rusts? Buy solid copper, seal it well, and be done with it!

    Venture Actuator Limit Switch Adjustment

    Look at the cover to the motor, where are the drain holes? On my 36" Venture the motor goes in the up position. The way yours is, it will just fill up with water after you install that cover! Do not ask me why I know this! I do agree with you about not being able to properly set the...
