Keep your eyes peeled. They don't last last long when they do pop up. Wondering why Edision discontinued them. No, we're not going to Cuba. But. Wouldn't a new SF 8008 Pro be a viable option? With warranty? Speaking of not lasting long. I have 2 donated and dead forever 4k+ receivers here. Blown...

As Titanium said. Both ports are voltage switched. Two receivers can be used or the unused port can be saved for after a rainy day. Unless he disagrees. The unused port can be covered to keep water from seeping inside. A dab of.....Silicone....would work. Silicon is on the beach. Silicone is why...

Yeah. I got confused by the mounting ring term. Twice the fun with one of these babies. Still have a few old ones in my pile-o-stuff. If they work on C & ku using the scalar that resembles (but is way more robust than the cheapie ones shipped with many lnbf's) any other C band scalar. I'm...

Good luck in your search. LNB waveguides that use polorotors are out there. Don't know what made your experience negative but I've made several purchases and have gotten good advice and suggestions from them. Fast handling and shipping too. Always ask if in stock or if they drop ship. And lead...

Nice little utility to list your lan devices. No installer, just run. In advanced options set your pc adapter and lan scope. Lists devices, lan ip, and mac. WOL

My actuator is down and apart for a clean and grease. I asked about ssl (putty). If you set and lost the password, if I remember there is a way to reset it using ssl (putty). Other than that you can reinstall 6 and not restore settings. Then remove the firewall plugin. I don't think really...

Far fetched but is the danged firewall plugin running? I had the same thing happen. Can you ssl into the box? EB versed me on the same thing over at his place.

Actually if you contact dreambox 1959 on satellites.co.uk he might build you a better-than asc1. Not quite sure is it incorporates skew control for a polorotor. RC controllers are robust and relatively cheap on eBay. Schematics and software are fully supported. I contacted them and asked if...

I have one here in the parts bin. A patch antenna you set on the window sill to receive sxm. It's similar to a gps patch with internal lna and filtering. Not sure what voltage is needed from the radio antenna port to power it. Although gewgel says 4-7 vdc for compatible antennas with internal lna's.

S band is pretty active actually. It really doesn't take more than a patch, helical antenna. Either with or without a reflector to focus the signals. A search for s band reception comes up with a lot of info. The now defunct Outernet and now Othernet was easily receivable using just a ku band...

xbox? alimony?

funny he didn't ask for a free jtag jig and sw also. just saying..... fringey

.....you guy's are killin' me, man. killin' me. pallets? sheesh. what are ya anyhow....brits? sched. 80 is better. the gray stuff. uv resistant. from the electrical supply. whatcha' do is plant and nurture some tasty berries. blueberries in my case. big as your thumbs even. no bear will dare...

Yes I do primester! No LNB power. Things that make sense and just like Brian suggested. Select either 13 or 18 volts and probe the LNB port at the rear. I'm accepting that we have basic electronics skills and a lot of finesse. One slip and, well. You know. A very good understanding of your...

No idea where in the world you live. But for 101W 4005 V 4442 DVB-S should give a bit more signal than 4020H. Of course you adjusted the lnb skew angle to compensate for the movement. Right? What part of the mount structure are you using the measure the elevation? If stamped in numbers, how do...
