Thanks for the info scoop. That's interesting!!!

I have to mention that I had trouble recording from my Directv DVR to my DVD recorder when I had HDMI cables hooked up. When I disconnected the HDMI cables and used the old fashion Yellow,Red,White cables, I was able to record from HBO. However, I have not tried to record a Pay Per View like...

That is why I want it so bad. Still can't get it re-working since I messed my dish up on Friday night (went too far west). It was coming in fine until then. I am calling my satellite expert friend to come out and take a look at it. Luckily, there is another NBC station on the 3845 that is going...

Hey all. Is anyone out there getting a signal on the G-16 (99 Degrees) for the Wyoming NBC station? Its specs are 3776-3256-H polarity. I am getting a great signal on the 3845 but no signal on that one. I want to watch the Raiders vs. Saints game. I think there is an NBC New York local on the...

Guess what everyone? My dish is stuck again!! Because my G-Box gives me constant E-2 errors, I moved it to far westward tonight and now my dish is stuck. My buddy could not figure out how to set the limits with the actuator and even if he could have, the E-2 error would probably override this. I...

Thanks for the pic. That looks real cool!! I may check it out.

It looks like I have a fried DBS Int'l LNB 741. Can you all direct me to the best replacement LNB I should buy? I would prefer one without the Cervo motor. I just bought a new Manhattan RS-1933 HD receiver and now I cannot use it. Frustrating. Thanks Bob

Hello all. I will soon be in the market for a new Free To Air Receiver. I just got my dish working again. I need a new HD FTA Receiver that has Blind Scan capability. I have done a lot of reading and am still confused as to which receiver gives me the best chance of finding local channels...

I don't know about HGTV but I have this problem often on my network channels. Especially ABC (Modern Family is the worst). Tonight, I noticed it on CBS (How I Met Your Mother). Do you ever have this problem on any of these channels or is your problem only with HGTV? I already had DirecTV come...

Scott, Thanks for the Sirius/XM comment. I have been haunted by them since Janurary 2006. They are awful!!!!!

Thanks for the suggestions Lone Gunman. I have updated my signatures. My friend came out and discovered a broken actuator. The motor inside is broken so I will need a new actuator. He put my dish on the 99 for me so I could at least get some TV out of it. He asked me how you set the limits on...

Thanks for everyone's suggestions. I got ahold of my sat guy and he is going to come out to my house. I really like the idea of setting the limits with the motor. I will talk to him about that. As for my settings, my dish guy has all of that. Thanks again to everyone trying to help. I am about...

Thanks everyone. Yes, I did reset the box too. My friend stood outside and said her heard a motor trying to work but the dish wasn't moving. Looks like a broken gear of some kind. Or, perhaps I need a new actuator. What do you guys think?

Thanks Dougruss! I will try that this evening. Thanks for posting.

Hello, I have an 8 foot BUD with DMS Int'l LNB (no cervo motor). I use a G-Box to move it. The G-Box has worked nearly flawlessly but once and awhile, it belches a bit and loses it's memory. It's usually easy to reprogram but this time, it looks like it sent my dish beyond it's limits (East). I...
