Count me in I hope to be there Saturday evening. Just one. Thanks. OOPS, almost forgot..... size XL

Thanks Thanks for all for the encouragement and help. I'm clearer on the Invacom configuring process and have had success receiving signals. Hummmmmm! Now I just have to figure out how to add a satellite. NDFEdit will be my first approach. Thanks again. :)

mdom I have just installed the QPH-031. Now I have a setup question. My spec's first: Coolsat 4000 Pro QPH-031 LNB Lava 4 X 1 DISEqC switch HH90 motor 39" Fortec Star dish My switch is set as: 1 for linear 2 for circular In the CoolSat Installation Main Menu Dish Settings: 1...

Now What! Replay Iceberg, Thanks. Am I safe in assuming that the card somehow connects directly with/into the CoolSat 4000 Pro. GlobeCast was advertising "I had to buy their receiver. Any thoughts? mdom

Now What! Reply Thanks for the reply Iceberg, Yes I guess IA5 is a good start. I guess I need to contact them to subscribe. Am I going to need more STUFF other than $$$$. Always, thanks for the help. mdom

I have a CoolSat 4000 Pro with linear LNB, 39" dish and HH90 mount. All works fine. I'm still learning. My wife asked me: "How do we watch the "$" channels?" How do I go about subscribing or purchasing a card? I trust this question isn't too far out of the FTA league. Thanks. mdom

Alright, I'm starting to reach my limits here. I seem to be missing something here - especially at the dish to motor interface. 1. The metal mast is verticle. 2. I have located "true south" via time and location. 3. Found 105 satellite w. 4. Signal and quality are pegged for the 105 W...

PSB, is there a difference between dish and motor elevation. Am I to always keep my motor elevation set to my latitude or is that flexible. Could my dish elevation be varied too? I think I'm headed into a BIG can worms.... I'll keep the motor elevation set and simply vary the dish elevation...

OK PSB, I have a question or two about your response on my having to fine my south satellite when moving my setup from fixed to motorized. You say "The motor should be at the ZERO position, never move it until you refind your true south satellite again!" Should the motor ZERO position remain...

OK, I beleive I follow you this far. However, without my dish mounted to the motor, I will have to remove the dish from the vertical mast and mount it to the motor mount on the same vertical mast. (Hopefully the motor will point "true south"). Doesn't this "break configuration" so to speak...

Fantastic, With no motor I found my "south" satellite. Thanks. Now you say "store it" how, and where? Also, don't I have to move the dish to mount it to the motor? Aren't my locations lost? Ohhhh, since my physical location is unchanged ... Please help me through the next phase...

Hi and here is my situation (I need help, have been working on this for 3 weeks): 1. location 39 degrees 59 minutes north latitude (true) 105 degrees 06 minutes west longitude (true) 2. Coolsat 4000 Pro receiver 3. Fortec Star 39 inch dish 4 Fortec StarFSKU-V...
