I didn't think was anything left that model could receive. I still have my DSR922 for a backup dish mover but recycled a stack of other mpeg2 DCII receivers last year that all still worked but seemed to take up more space than they were worth in 2022.

On 101W, I noticed the Folk TV and Z Living Channels seem to take a second or 2 to display video but always have for me. Others seem normal.

Although I'm not sure of the pole diameter offhand, one of my Prodelin 6' dishes has a larger diameter mount than the others on the NPRM setup it came with. The original installers had placed a piece of metal stock in between the pole and mount as a shim before locking it down plumb. Since this...

I have never had a problem with the wind most likely because of the concrete holding it down adequately. It is only resting on the blocks because of the snow the builds up otherwise. No rust at all after 10 years. Just the Fortec Star logo faded.

I have a similar Fortec Star brand 6' dish and been using it for 10 years, bolted to a wood pallet sitting on some concrete blocks with more blocks for ballast. I recently had to replace the pallet due to deterioration from the weather but otherwise I've had good luck with it. Currently pointed...

If you enjoy the Nasa channels, the 4K feed on 127W is awesome with the Edision OS Mio on my 4K TV. The first channel I wanted to test out.

I started covering the entire LNBF and conical scalars with heavy plastic bags. Since the the prime focus design feed horns are designed to point down, not up as I have them on my 3 Prodelin offset dishes. I gave up trying to keep various caps over the scalars, the water was still getting in...

Although I have the ABC feeds scanned in, I can't remember the last time I actually watched one. However, I'm really interested by the Edision Os Mio streaming features. I have never experimented with anything of this type. I'm looking forward to setting this up now.

I would look forward to a 40m QSO or round table type net.

It was great to find new channels before they were commonly available. I remember the promo loop for the Sc-Fi Channel before it was know much later as SyFy. It began as a tease of wavering blurry images and voices with a countdown shown. Closer to the debut, you could make out the video and...

So far I'm just getting my feet wet. I have a Yaesu FT-2900R with a Tram roof antenna setup. I got the RT Systems ADMS software and USB cable and have loaded all the 2M repeaters in a 50 mile radius. The program reminds me of using the FTA receiver channel editors and saves tons of time...

I'm official, KD2MVP

I watch H&I all the time now that it airs the various Star Trek series regularly. For a while I stopped watching when they changed their schedule, especially when Rat Patrol went away on Saturday mornings. I loved the original schedule when it first went on the air. Any word if MeTV is leaving...

Well that's bad news. Glad I didn't buy another receiver just to get them. I've been watching them locally for a while now except for Movies channel that I watch on 99W. I think it was 2 years ago they said the Weigel feeds were going to end but never did.

I've had 4140V bleed through a switch and rewrite the TPs on 107.3W from 99W on fixed position dishes. I replaced the switch after that happened twice and edited the SIDs with the channel editor to 0 and haven't had a problem since.

I have been disconnecting everything for 9 years now after a strike here followed the dish actuator wires into the house and destroyed everything connected. If I'm away or a storm is forecast, it's easy enough to spend a couple of minutes disconnecting a few cables. The downside is once in a...

I started watching several of the different Star Trek series now airing on the new schedule on H&I OTA and I've noticed whatever equipment my local affiliate WNYT on 13.3 is using is also suffering from intermittent issues. Last night during Star Trek TNG, I noticed many freezes and digital...

Out of the box without any updates these V7s work OK on the Weigel channels? My luck I'll order a V7 and the 101W issue will be resolved before it arrives.

I wish the Programming Center and Jeff from Manhattan luck if they could some give us a choice with popular HD channels in the future should their ideas get off the ground. I've had Dish for several years now after dropping 4DTV and would welcome something that allows me to sub for just the...

The receiver looks smaller than the power supply in the picture. The seller in the link has sold 115 units when I was just looking. Very tempting for the price to get the popular channels back for reliable reception.

Last night all 3 were normal on my Amiko 8900. I'm not certain how accurate it is or really the relevance of it, but the on screen BER displays 0.0 when the info button is pressed on those channels with that receiver running OpenPLi E2.

Interesting that a $26 box plays them. Looking forward to hearing more.

This makes me question whether SES 1 changed something that most of our hobbyist grade receivers are incapable of receiving. Any of those cheap Chinese receivers working for H&I, Movies! or Decades?

I didn't see any technical specs listed for the X2 mini. What SoC does it use? Novatek or Ali based?

The past weekend and yesterday, Movies!, H&I and Decades were unwatchable here. I'm not home today to check. Tried the microHD and noticed on the 3 channels, using the signal meter actually caused the receiver to freeze becoming unresponsive requiring a reboot. Could they have changed something...
