    TT S2-3200 BDA driver updated

    Cool, now I can play with stuff to experiment. I was unsure what the Video "B" was for. Thank you again. I have followed most of your posts regarding the Tt3200 and DVB Viewer and have gained a lot of knowledge. I sincerely appreciate the information.

    8 1/2 foot Paraclipse - it's mine...

    One question you had in your first note asked about focal length. You can reinsert the button hook feed in to the dish base, (making sure it is fully seated) and then measure the distance to the feed horn. It should be fairly accurate. Conversion to a multiple leg feed support should be...

    Paraclipse Dish?

    The "fish hook" feed that is on that dish tended to sag with age. If you get the dish you can either use guy wires to stabilize the feed, or i can provide photos (with measurements) of the parts necessary to modify the dish with a quad leg feed support.

    How do I get a NFL remote without getting Sunday Ticket?

    Hawai has special equipment to receive Directv. Therefore we are not permitted to order any "equipment" online. I tried to order the NFL remote via the Direct site. I was rejected and the site indicated I needed to call a CSR. I called the CSR and the person I talked with told me that I needed...

    Re-meshing dish

    When I installed my fourteen foot paraclypse, I raised the dish to the pole without having installed 1/4 th of the mesh. I did it that way so we could lift that monster to the mount. That evening I watched C band even though the mesh was not yet installed. There will be a significant signal...

    Team Summit: General Assembly Notes

    Will Hawaii ever get Full HD Lineup

    Well, if I were only going to visit here, I would agree with you. Given that I have lived here for over twenty years, I have spent many hours watching Paradise. Keep in mind, though, that we work here too. After a full day of work, we like to come home and sit down with a cold one, and...

    Will Hawaii ever get Full HD Lineup

    Lol No doubt, but coming soon does not quite cut it. Further I have not totally disconnected Dishnet. It can always be upgraded again. Receivers are mine, and all it takes is a call to the CSR. In the mean time I am watching much more HD this evening than was possible last night...

    Will Hawaii ever get Full HD Lineup

    Living on Maui, I felt the same frustration as you do. Today Direct is coming to hook me up with the other service. I particularly liked Dishnetwork hardware, but the offset for us is about thirty more channels in HD, not counting regional sports, and premium channels that are available in...
