    Visionsat Editor Program.

    I just edit everything and then 'manually' change to USALS on the STB for each bird. I know it is cumbersome, but I think this is the only way to do it.

    Visionsat Editor Program.

    Looks like you can't edit if the satellite is using USALS.

    wish me luck

    I left everything as-is. I parked the dish at my true-south (95 degrees) and hoped for the best. the other item is that my pole is cemented and mounted on the South-West corner of the house.

    Visionsat Blind Scan Quirk

    Well I just checked and I have the upper and lower set for "universal" and LNB frequency is 9750 - 10750. Is there a section to change the LO ? I am assuming that if I did have it set correctly to begin with, then I wouldn't get a signal. any other ideas?

    Visionsat Blind Scan Quirk

    I think it may have been talked about but I want to see if others who do a blind scan with the Visionsat always get their frequencies off by a 1000 MHz. For example I was scanning H2 looking for 4:2:2 feeds and one shows up 11144 with a SR of 3970. Now I know that is too low to enter into my...

    Best way to hook up 2 Rec, one cable?

    I have seen that information as well and I was wondering if something had the magic decoder ring for it.

    Coolsat 8000's going fairly cheap on ebay. Been away from FTA section for a while.

    Best way to hook up 2 Rec, one cable?

    Is there a trick to find the Video and Audio PIDs and other items on the Visionsat? I an using it to blind scan and then use my Linux VLC system to show them on my computer. It seems I can only find the frequency V/H and SR.

    Surprising performance from cheap lnbf

    I would like to chime in real quick... I'm testing a standard lnb from Robby from WSI which is VERY reasonably priced and this unit is rock stable. I am running it through its paces and I will have my first review here in a couple of weeks to update everyone. With the days of heat then rain...
