I guess since it works I'd still be interested in finding the circuit mod. So far a search here didn't lead me to the post. But still it raises a question. With a single-in receiver. In tuner setup for E2. You can only select that port for a single lnb, lnbf. Or did I miss something? With a 2...

It's a 2012 Mitsubishi After my last post. Lo and behold about an hour or so after, got a call from SXM Corporate Customer Care in S. Africa. Spoke with a gal. Questioned why I was getting a call from there and not from the USA. Gave a bit of info. and was told that I was eligible for the same...

That perked me up enough to call SXM and stress speaking with an rep. in the USA. Which turned out to be in Canada. Louis and Ian. Supers. I asked to be connected with one. The best they can do is $5.00/mo. plus taxes and fees. Works out to $6.31 a month. Over and over. The second call after...

Thanks Bri. Already have most of my C band xml done. A bit. Not much work. No extra hardware or mods needed. And tested. I have no 5G interference out here in the sticks. Hopefully I can snag a couple of Norsat's that work. Knowing little but what's still bolted to my Chaparral polorotor C/ku...

Like the subject says. Wondering how it's usually done. I see tek has a 13/18 volt switch. I just refuse to buy anything from him. Other searches come up a bit blank. It might be covered in the archives here but that's some deep searching. In the interim. Although it might not be kosher. I was...

Kind of seriously disagree using Administrator as your everyday login. I do use auto login with my user account still by running control userpasswords2. Done that for years. By using Administrator as your regular login. It's highly unlikely that you're going to use a long password with a string...

I would almost guarantee that the others aren't far off from rotting through. Especially if there are no weep holes drilled at the lowest spot on them. EMT conduit is engineered for outdoor use and is thin walled but rigid enough to just fabricate new arms. Sleeving them would be okay if you...

Nope. Even required when "run as administrator".

I'd get some conduit and duplicate a good arm. Grab a spray can of etching primer and spray inside the new tube before you smash the ends shut. Spray enough to let it pool up and slosh it around inside. A vice would be nice. Or a couple of boards and a hammer to sandwich it in. Probably check...

only if you pay for what you get with what they sell you..... 'nuff said.

Another annoyance with 11. When click on a .exe or .msi installer and it just sits there. Right click on the file and unblock it.

I would trust the scanners that Pine Hills Auto Diagnostics and even Scotty Kilmer uses every single day in their work. If you want a simple scanner to check and clear codes, then your local auto parts stores have a good selection. You might even get lucky and find someone there that has...

Well holee-molee. There's your problem, Mister. All wires running together in the same cable. No bwayno. The sensor wires always at least have a shield wrapped around them if they are in the same cable. No amount of twisting and separating will fix that. The sensor wires in the same sheath are...

Don't be brand worthy. Superjack clones are rampant. I bought one from tek. It lasted about 2 years and I paid dearly for it. The gears ate themselves up. Poor weather sealing on the motor. Usual periodic teardowns. BTW I live in the North with nasty winters. If you got X years out of one then...
