What is the main difference between the Amiko D-8/1 and Geosatpro GDSW81 DiSeqc switches, besides the 50 cents difference at Ebay.

Fat Air, I did not mean to actually said simultaneously, I meant to say with the setup that I have now. A cluster of Ku band LNBF satellites(4) using the 4x1 DiSeqc and a single C band satellite dish using a 22khz inline with the 4x1 DiSeqc. It sure would be nice if we could receive both Ku...

Okay, after spending some time trying to make this work, I came to the conclusion that the best thing to do is to invest in the 8x1 DiSeqc switch mentioned by A Raine. Tried every of the above suggestions with no good results. Even though 30W is not quite coming in strong because of the partial...

Using a 1.2M Ku dish with a home made bracket that have 3 LNBs, and a 1M dish with 1 LNB, 1 LNB on a C dish giving me a total of 5 LNBs and five viewable sattelites. Satellites. DiSeqc 97W...

The next door neighbor tree(s) are about 100' from my property, pine trees and they are over 75' tall, there use to be an opening between them, but one of them sprouted more limbs, no LOS, have to relocate the pole. My dish is already located as far away as possible from the offending tree.

Was receiving 30W using a Superdish for quite a while, very good reception in the high 70%. Now having problems, tree branches on the next door neighbor grown out too big, blocking LOS. Might have to relocate the dish.

polgyver, Ingenious idea, I am always amazed on all of your input and ideas that you have offered to the forum. Just wondering, how moist is the ground where you live in Toronto, right here where I live in this part of Louisiana, just digging about a foot and a half, you will come across some...

Having a hard time in getting the Cozi Channel, what is the now recommended Skew for this satellite?. The signal is bouncing between 50% and 70% but the beach channels are the only ones coming in and nothing else. Off subject, what is the new format to send and download pictures to the forum...

Sorry for not taking any pictures. At the bottom, and Inside of the push rod there is a very flimsy bearing assembly, this bearing is of a sandwich type, holding ball bearings inbetween two plates. The bearing is located close to the electronic box that contains the motor gears. As the motor...

Hello good people, I have just given my Powermax 24 a new lease on life. The problem was not with the plastic nut, but the bearing that keeps the inner shaft centered. The bearing discentegrated spilling the ball bearings out. The inner screw that pushes the rod shaft in and out, retained the...

Magic Static, Thanks for the reply. What name brand actuator would you recommend?

Today my Powermax24 actuator shaft became disengaged and Is free moving by hand in the extending direction. It is resting at 78W, and does not move the dish in either direction. Has anyone experienced this problem with their actuator and is this hard to fix?. Any advice or help is...

I want to move my dish with this great product

dan, are you receiving a good signal with that C band lnbf, and what are the degree spacing of the satellites that are viewable. Thanks.
