Don't know, but you might be confusing HD with digital tv.

I can't seem to find it on G10R, anyone getting it or have they scrambled? Thanks.

But that's how it starts, isn't it? Joe Geek, toiling in his garage, comes up with a way to watch great tv for free. He tells a few of his friends and makes up some equipment for them too. Word gets around and Joe is spending all his time making equipment. It's all small time, a few thousand at...

My take on it is that they see it as a market niche. They're hoping to convince potential buyers that there's a lot of good fta stuff to watch and then sell the equipment needed to watch it. Same ol same ole. I think ultimately it will lead to everything being encrypted and fta will go the...

Okay, here's the stupid question of the day, smile and shake your head if you must:) Our analog tv is finally dying and we're going to make the leap to HD. Will the hdtv alone display a hd channel such as Discovery (from my dsr922), or will I also need an HD200 box?

With my setup (pansat 2500a slaved to a 922) I have to leave the 922 powered on, when I shut it off the servo reverts to vertical polarity. Pulled a lot of hair out learning this.

Over a thousand posts since joining in May? That's impressive;)

Thanks for the replies guys. I'll probably have to do something different at some point, but for now I've pinned it. Well worth the effort though as I now get good signals on stuff at G10R that was only marginal at best before.

I was fooling around with my dish yesterday and found I could get better signals by a small rotation of the dish, maybe a 1/16 of an inch. Trouble is when I tighten, the bolts want to go right back into their original indentations and I lose my gains. Anybody got a simple fix short of...

There are. But they're on the Ku band. Ice' already listed those available on the C-band side.

Their suspicions are not unfounded, I communicate with the Zargonians on the planet Zargon with my dish:D

Somebody's getting cranky and needs a nap:D

Are you leaving the 920 powered on while using the FTA receiver? I know this caused me no end of frustration until others here pointed out that you need to keep the 4dtv on to control polarity.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Finaly, after months of frustration! That was it, the 922 has to powered on to keep the polarity the way I currently have it set up. I just assumed it stayed on the channel I left it on when I turned it off so I could see the 2500a on the tv. I changed the 'tv out' on the...

Then my hookup must be wrong because I can't see the Pansat on the tv unless I shut the 922 off. How should I have it hooked up? Surely there must be at least one other member here who has a 922 hooked to a 2500a?
