    Thanks to all who replied, I guess I keep 'tweaking' until this works.

    need more help getting EWTN

    OK, DMX741, only thru the output (I have no clue what a 22khz switch is), I've done both; select only gal 15 at 133 and also those on either side, 135 and 131, the lnb freq I used last is 5150 but have noticed that by changing that option different chnls may or may not come in, 22khz is 'off'...

    need more help getting EWTN

    Just setup 10 footer with DMX741 and sathawkpvr800 and still can't receive EWTN. I believe I have the dish pointed and angled properly since I can get qvc on adjacent 131 and 135. I tried to 'red button' transponder data to match that given by ewtn. I get a 70-80 on signal strength and quality...

    Galaxy 15, dish size?

    I'm curious if you have had any progress receiving ewtn. I was perfect on gal 17 with solid 6 footer. Now put up 7.5 foot mesh winegard and can't get any decent signal from gal 15. I'll find larger dish but am not convinced that is my sole problem at the moment.

    need help, please, with new application

    Is there a 'dummies' book for FTA? I'm lost when it comes to the in-line amplifier answers and such. Openbox manual doesn't mention mpeg-4, this a firmware thing?

    need help, please, with new application

    Really appreciate all the 'outstanding' responses and forgive my lack of details. This is a new install, existing doesn't work due to line of sight issues for gal15, using an old winegard 7.5 foot mess dish that was free and will be stationary on galaxy 15, I hope. Plan on routing the cable into...

    need help, please, with new application

    Moving my fta dish since ewtn is now on Gal 15. I'm going to be 200 feet away now and was told I'd need R11 cable. I've seen in-line amplifiers, will those work? I'm hoping to put a tv in my pole barn and split the signal into the house from there.The EWTN message also says that analog service...

    I need help with options to get EWTN free to air

    I'm new here, please forgive me in advance. I was receiving the unscrambled EWTN on galaxy 17, which is no longer available. I have DMX741 lnb and sathawk pvr800 receiver. I'm obstructed to the west with my existing setup. Anything I can do, different type of receiver maybe? I can move my dish...
