    Is LegitFTA Down?

    It doesn't work for me on Windows. I don't remember enabling any cookie protection on Firefox itself other than whatever the default settings may be. I do have ublock origin and Malwarebytes Browser Guard enabled, but neither are reporting blocking anything. It does work with Edge, which I'm...

    Is LegitFTA Down?

    That's the one I've always used. Still doesn't work in Firefox or Chrome, works in Edge only as long as I don't log in.

    Is LegitFTA Down?

    Not working for me. I get "too many redirects" in both Firefox and Chrome. I even tried an un-modified Edge and it still doesn't work. Also, the few parts that do work are slow.

    Here Comes The Sun

    Here comes another one! https://www.spaceweather.com/images2025/30may25/nasamodel2.gif NOAA hasn't released an official forecast yet, but then again, NOAA hasn't been able to forecast ANYTHING accurately lately, for reasons which are off-topic but should be blindingly obvious...

    Is LegitFTA Down?

    Seeing as how there's only like ONE active thread at any given time, maybe they should just dump the site and start fresh? Maybe even with different software?

    TNAP 6.0. Beta-test images

    I've never been a fan of the Enigma-style key mapping -- the arrow keys should just change the channel, what's so {censored} hard to understand about that? If you're lucky, there will be a menu option to "enable neutrino-style zapping" which I think was the default in previous versions of TNAP.

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    Yes, if I remember rightly, there are two relays, one for each direction. The issue with shutting off LNB power at random is a known thing that nobody seems to want to fix. (IF it's the same problem -- on mine, changing channels does NOT fix it, I have to restart.) The "solution" is to select...

    OTHER Motor movement behavior

    I believe that the usual cause of a motor driving all the way to the end of the arc is a stuck relay. It doesn't usually correct itself though, so I don't know if that's what's going on in your case.

    it's Eurovision Song Contest time again

    The on-stage hosts always narrate it in English, like they do for the Olympics. I wish the local broadcasters would give us the option of an audio channel without themselves talking over it in their language, since this would be easily done with digital broadcasting.

    it's Eurovision Song Contest time again

    The American feed of RTPi on 97W Ku is scheduled to show the first semifinal live Tuesday at 3PM EDT, the second one delayed Thursday at 4:30PM EDT (I don't know why they do this) and the finale live Saturday at 3PM EDT. The American feed of BVN on 117W Ku doesn't provide an online schedule...

    Is LegitFTA Down?

    The server is responding today, but you still can't read any messages. The messages also appear to only to up to about a month ago, except for two dated today about repairing the website, but you can't read them either...

    OTHER GT media GTX Combo

    If they're telling the truth about them using the S905X3 chip, that does apparently support 4:2:2. Personally, I have no desire to ever have another Android TV box of any variety, unless it's free. But that's because I was burned by a buggy piece of expensive junk called the Amiko A3. (I...
