I have a Sonicview SV-360 Elite receiver which picks up channels in Blind Search and the video and audio quality is good, but even though I get good strength, my quality is 0 for every satellite. Can anyone tell me is this normal since my old receiver did give both when scanning for channels. I...

Can anyone tell me how I can stop Dish Network receiver from turning off after about 30 minutes of being in use. I am tired of turning the receiver back on. Sometimes it does it in less than 15 minutes and of course I am talking about the manufacturer of course. I never had that problem when I...

I have a lnbf which is round and came with my Satoun system and did work fine until recently. I didn't know the part about this type of product not being compatible with FTA. It looks sort of like the ones on the Directv and Dish lnbf's except mine is for a motorized system.

I have a similar problem with my DG-270 motor and it will move manually to the West, but will go back to the East all the way. I get good signals on my receiver, but can't get any channels due to this problem. I will try disconnecting the cable from the motor and pressing the buttons for 5...

I love that show and the only place I see it here is on subscription TV on TVLand and a few others. If they are on RTV I must be tunning in at the wrong time and missing it.

We still have RTV here in Central Arkansas run by the local ABC station and there are many programs I watch on it. We don't have MeTV yet that I know of. I usually watch the RTV programs when there is nothing else worth watching on the other channels. There are times when I am watching the news...

I thought that I had enough dishes in my yard, but mine are professionally done and wind won't move them either. That city must not have a ordinance about property upkeep of property with that mess in the yard. If I lived in the Chicago area they would fine me for having one probably.

It can be additive as you roam through the channels. Too bad there isn't more English channels on the Ku satellites though. My favorite is the VA and Pentagon channels since I am a retiree and want to keep in touch with what is new. I like some of the news channels also to get an independent...

I need to get one of those next month and know where to get the pole and the other parts.

The tree's don't help. I guess that my next purchase will be another Fortec Star receiver since it seems to be a better receiver. I just wish that I knew how to upload new files to this Mercury II receiver so I could let the SV-360 just collect dust and consider it a loss.

I think that I have figured out what has happened after getting AMC1 channels to work on my TV. The Walnut tree's must be blocking my view of the satellites in one direction. I knew that I was not getting a Quality reading in most cases, and I guess that I did receive a good quality reading on...

I have the Sonicview 360 Elite which when searching for channels on a satellite gives the strength which is good, but no quality on any satellites. My old Mercury II receiver which has software problems, but does show the channels it's picks up perfectly. The new receiver is connected back...

My Mercury II receiver lost the longitude and latitude information for all the satellites and I am trying to install the files from Fortec Star into this receiver from my laptop computer. What I need is instructions on how to do this since I can't find the manual for this receiver.

I have a Sonicview 360 Elite and it is connected to a Fortec Star motorized dish. There is good signal on the receiver, but no quality on it. It finally picked up some channels from one satellite, but no video from those channels even though they are FTA. I had a Mercury II which came with the...

I have solved the problem with the receiver after finding the manual for the TV. All I had to do was press the "HDMI" button on the TV to change the connection type to "HDMI" and I got a picture. I called the Directv representative and found that I was suppose to have a card for the receiver I...
