prevention well, i have the fta box, and i would have to replace it. i know those with the ninja skills can run fta box and dn box. i suppose i could learn how to do that. i think i should get the hd box, any recs?

My wife is despondent because the FTV is down. Since she suffers from a disability, she is what we used to call a shut in. This is often the only joy for her when I go to work. In the past, board members were so helpful that they got me going with the motorized, and a cband. Anybody have any...

houston there is a problem okay, so my wife has to have the FTV, and what do you think...I should buy an HD FTA if so, can you recommend...or should I not since it will go subscription? I know that it isn't certain...just want some ideas. my wife loves this channel. yikes

making a sat dish out of an AC? Why not make a dish out of the AC? Integrate the dish into the ac. use struts to extend it, ask members what gauge of holes would be possible to still get signal...you might even be able to make the cover of the ac a dish. wow. i am spinning...i made the bad...

how does 8 port work? svelite gives me only four ports so i guess i have to go with the 22khz and disecq. how do i configure it? 22khz? if so , why not 8x1 with the different port assignments?

so my receiver is bogus 1.1? that would explain alot. it only has four ports, unless i use the 22. what the hell can this mean? btw what is the deal with echo star 1,2 at 148 with linear? i get some programs for a while, and then they dissapear. what the hell? why am i getting scrambled...

yes it does! it does, so will the 8x1 be 1234 plus 22 sign on each? how does it configure for eight? I buy it now once i find out because my prodelin is getting some lnb for ku ala linuxman...won't look as cool, but hey...btw, i was on record suggesting the cband add to the linuxman project...

sonicview elite think it will work with this piece of crap? i gotta buy a coolsat. seems that is the best reviewed one, but when i started in the fall, i had no idea...live and learn. at least i have insane amounts of channels! now if i can cable it so i don't half to walk into the wiring...

bad reviews bad reviews aplenty for the digiwave, apparently getting 5678 are hard. least that's what i have read. i think the ecoda 22 with the 4x1 looks like the way to go. these switches are finnicky, and i don't want to spend 20 bucks on something that might work....the 22 and 4 1 will...

Should I go 8x1 for my rig, or two diseqc with a 22? My motorized is what i am worried about. will it pass the commands? thanks all

you kill me ice! you always master the simplest stuff...making me feel like an IDIOT! jk....why didn't i think of that? i wonder if you had a dollar for every post that you made that made someone think...why didn't i think of that? you would have a brand new 7.0 Meter Torus by prodelin...

how do you subscribe? how do you subscribe?

does anyone get this unscrambled? i would think the coolsat would run it, because the n1 is dead. would it work?

cool, would love the accurate measurement to compare. i am booming, but it would be good to be precise, especially since i want to motorize.

well done. 97 is one of the harder sats to get as it is low power. congrats! btw, get a signal meter, no problem for you ten bucks, any sat it minutes. peace
