    OTHER Ku band causing interference on amateur radio 2 meters

    In the family, my son and I both have FT2890R radios in our shacks. I programmed both with the RT Systems program using my Dell laptop and my laptop definitely causes that type of S9 RFI on the radios in my case. Using the same laptop with Chirp on other radios the same issues are evident and I...

    Edision Edision OS mio+ 4K HDMI issue

    If the Edision is connected directly to the TV does the issue still occur and crash? I know my Mio doesn't work well with older presumably HDMI 1.3 generic cables. Just not enough data can pass and artifacts are displayed at 1080i while 720p is fine. What is the video refresh rate? If set at...

    Edision OS Mio 4k stuck on "boot" and blue screen

    My Mio 4K takes forever to boot if I forget to disconnect the powered external 500 GB hard drive. Even with just a USB flash drive it sometimes takes extra time, but it hangs at the splash screen while it's apparently reading the contents of the drive first. My first original unit developed a...

    AMIKO Amiko minihd265

    Have you tried another TV with the Amiko? Do other HDMI ports operate as normal with other devices? I have serviced many TVs where a surge damaged the HDMI circuit on the main board.

    Edision Ventilation Idea For Edision and Other Receivers

    Although I have one Mio that intermittently loses the horizontal polarity, neither of mine are barely even warm in operation. In comparison, my Dish 211K receiver I previously used was really warm but never seemed to be a problem.

    Edision OS Mio 4K+ stuck in endless cycle of restarts - Help Please.

    I've been running TNAP 4 since it came out on my original box with the PLi-FullNightHD skin and on my second box since last week. No issues but mine never go online.

    OTHER Koqit Firmware

    Is that clear plastic film covering the vent slots in the top cover? If so, it would be best to remove that to help cooling to prolong it's life.

    AMIKO AMIKO Mini HD SE USB Problem

    On my Amiko there is a media tab that's not grayed out when a USB device is recognized. Further in is a disk manage star icon, which will show uda1: and the yellow button displays HDD information. What is the drive format?

    AMIKO AMIKO Mini HD SE USB Problem

    Is the HD powered from the USB? If so, perhaps a difference in power supplies?

    OTHER Unknown Dish

    I have 3 Prodelin dishes here. I fabricated mounts and converted to C band, 2 of them have some added Ku band LNBFs for nearby satellites. I measured the focal points from the original feedhorns and tweaked as necessary for optimum signal.

    GEOSATpro Multiple timed recordings fail on a Mcro HD?

    To help with successful multiple recording events with my setup, I found over the years to leave the receiver on and not in standby mode. If switching channels, it helps with the strongest signal quality possible. Channels that take a second or two to lock may not record especially if changing...

    GEOSATpro Micro HD With No Horizontal Channels?

    My microHD will not work properly with a Digiwave 8x1 brand switch here and it will operate with a DMSI switch. It has a separation or isolation problem between ports and most likely creates a voltage drop when supplying current between all my dishes at once.

    GEOSATpro Micro HD Boot Loop Repair?

    You mentioned 2 different computers and 2 different cables. The FTDI chip cables are great and usually work without issue. The generic cables work better in my experience with earlier Prolific driver 3.2.0.0 and it may be worth a try to swap the RX and TX wires. Make sure the com port that...

    GEOSATpro Micro HD Boot Loop Repair?

    Just a thought, my TTL cable has the RX and TX terminals reversed on the board. Just like my ham radio USB programming cables, they can be com port specific using the generic Prolific drivers. Windows PCs are not helpful when they decide to update your drivers for you.

    OTHER Basic DVB-S/S2 Receiver

    Thankfully I get H&I, Decades, MeTV, This TV, Antenna TV, Grit, Laff, Justice and AMG TV OTA locally. If I want Movies! it's good on 99W so far here. If I didn't, I would most likely be in the market for something to receive them. I'm all for supporting NA dealers first. I have quite enough...

    Fortec Lifetime Ultra

    The Fortec Lifetime Ultra was my first FTA receiver 11+ years ago that got me interested in the digital satellite world. I bet it would still work today for 97W had lightning not killed it a decade ago. It would suffer from memory overload if it had too many channels logged in but I had the...

    OTHER Basic DVB-S/S2 Receiver

    Has anyone tried out any number of scheduled recordings? Does it record in .TS format that most of these receivers do?

    AMIKO Amiko A3 Owners Thread

    I was thinking if it was possible without risk of damaging the receiver perhaps the A3 might work out for others on Enigma 2 if it was the factory software crashing for whatever the reason. I'm pretty sure I ran across E2 versions for the A3 but wouldn't want anyone to ruin their box trying it...

    AMIKO Amiko A3 Owners Thread

    Does this Amiko have the dual boot like the earlier Alien 8900? Curious if Enigma 2 is operating for the A3 better than the factory operating system.

    OTHER Dreambox DM100s

    Just to be sure, are you using the "LNB input" port? According to the photo in the manual on page 8, the output port with the 13/18V might be easily mistaken for the input at first glance.

    OTHER Dreambox DM100s

    Is your dish already setup for G19? If not you're working blind to get multiple things setup at the same time. Perhaps to get you started you could just pick one of the Eastern satellites and manually add a valid G19 transponder to scan.

    Pansat Pansat 2700A with Lesea Channels 7 and 8?

    No such luck, I even deleted the others and rescanned and only 1-6 come back. It doesn't really matter since most of the time this box is in the garage on a shelf. Mainly my curiosity gave me something to do. I pulled out my Pansat 9200HD and that found them as expected. I wrote down the PCR...

    Pansat Pansat 2700A with Lesea Channels 7 and 8?

    I have a Pansat 2700A that is only used for dish pointing and alignment purposes. I noticed the other day when I tried to update the Lesea channels on 4000H 26400 on 99W, it doesn't find channels 7 and 8 that were the last ones added sometime ago. Is there something in the PIDS or PCR data the...

    AMIKO No audio on NBC

    I remember asking in the inexpensive receiver thread about the coaxial audio RCA on the back of those boxes. Did anyone test to see if it has output? I used to use the S/PDIF on my old Pansat connected to the surround to get audio. Might be a workaround for owners of the cheap receivers to get...

    GEOSATpro So what is Fred555 doing wrong here?

    Is the drive USB powered? The microHD requires the external drive to have it's own power source.
