    Another I need help thread (IA5)

    Ok, so I think i'm on IA6. I'm guessing this by looking the channel lineup and the shows match up. What confuses me is that the transponder listed in Iceberg's sticky doesn't show a strong signal. Also on the coolsat 5000, when I click info for the channel the TP info doesn't match what's on...

    Thanks for all your input guys. Unfortuanly, I won't be able to give it another shot until the weekend. I'll try all your sugguestions, but SatelliteAV, your response scares me the most :eek: I hope the dish is ok. I picked it up locally, so hopefully it's ok.

    Question about Magnetic Declination Help?

    Just wanted to verify if this is right. I'm in Los Angles. The Geo Azimuth for IA5 is 145.1. My Mag Dev is 13.2 E. Does that mean my Mag Azimuth is 131.9 and this is what I should point my compass to?

    Are Dish Network Installers good FTA installers?

    I don't plan on having them configure my system. My main headache is the mounting and wiring. If I can get them to mount the dish and feed the wire into my house, that'll alleviate most of my headache.

    Dish Installers and wiring help

    I'm having my Dish network installed next week. There is a perch in front of my house that would probably be the easiest place to install the dish. However, I plan to install a FTA dish. Is it ok if I ask the installer to install the Dish Network Dish somewhere else. Also is it ok if I...

    Are Dish Network Installers good FTA installers?

    I plan to switch to dish network soon. I was hoping to ask the installer to setup my fta dish as well. Are they usually willing to help, specifically with the mounting of the dish and wiring?
