    info on DTV slimline w/ SL5PIG-P

    If the boresight one seems wider than a normal 12GHz tube, thats because there are more Feedhorns jammed together. Search for Ka Or Ka/Ku LNBF. All of the LNB are circular. This LNB places the downconverted Ka band outside the usual 900MHz-2200MHz I have one of the 5 LNBF models that I was...

    VITS lines visible on television from broadcast signal

    It is the broadcasting station that is sending the visible VBI data and not your antenna or TV's fault. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTSC#Lines_and_refresh_rate Says 525 lines, 486 of which are visible. Normally in analog NTSC on a CRT screen, the VBI data is projected to the non-visible...

    Question about Ortho on the 4DTV

    Linuxman, for what it's worth when I got the DSR-922 I did a little testing of my own. The goal was trying to get a BSC-621 to work. So this was a single wire solution. I hooked up my analog sqealer meter with it's "V/H" and "22kHz (tone)" LED's to the appropriate port. I power-cycled...

    BYU Audio Problem

    Fizbi, are you using something for an AC-3 decoder? I know when I have the SonicVoom hooked up it doesn't respect the Left/Right Audio selection on the Coolsat 5000/6000 The analog RCA and RF channel 3/4 modulator built-in to the Coolsat respect the audio Left/Right preference but the digital...

    No Guide or Menu Screen

    Silver mesh DCH-43xx had a buggy GUI but reliable recorder The all black DCX-43xx was the best one we had but it was a bit fussy and would dump all but 4-hours of guide data from time to time.

    YES! 4DTV on W5 almost certain

    Anyone else looking for a 922? It's time to make the house payment and we're short this month. I haven't subbed it since March. It's a 2005 edition!

    No Guide or Menu Screen

    How long have you waited for guide data? Back when I had Comcast, guide data took a minimum of one hour before I got the next 4 hours worth of data. Watching TV on the box could drag that out to 4 hours or more. Turning the box off (standby) could speed that up to 30-45 mins. for the same "Next...

    Dropping ALL analog signal

    The DTAs only have an RF. Ch 3-4 analog output on them. The why of Comcast not providing a unencrypted digital feed breaks down to these points: Clear QAM are considered unsecure. Hollywood channel contracts demands and require the channels be transmitted securely. Hollywood won't agree to an...

    Dropping ALL analog signal

    They want to move to the Satellite model. No need to roll a truck to place a filter when a sub cancels service (saves money). Only subs can see only their subscribed channels. Set-top boxes record what, when and how long some channels was watched. Useful in channel-cost negotiations...

    To Be Announced

    Box needed to be turned off/"standby" mode at some random time between 12:30am and 2:30am. Otherwise it only got a trickle feed that took 3+ hours for only 4 hours of guide data
