    IA5 Recent Problems

    Hi, Did anyone notice lately that IA5 (T5) has been having some strange problems, like looking audio on all channels? I read somewhere that Dishnet made some changes and it was somehow affecting IA5 and that IA5 is in the process of fixing the problems!!! Is this true. Thanks.

    Abu Dhabi Sports channel

    I am still grtting it. It seems that it is on a weak TP. It breaks up most of the time.

    No Video for some channels on IA5

    Thank you, Rick. But, deleting the channels and re-sacnning did not fix the problem. I think it has to do with the Video PID. But I am not sure what it is and how I can set it on my receiver. TF

    No Video for some channels on IA5

    Rebooting the receiver (Digiwave 7000) did not make any difference! This problem has been there since I setup my sat. equipment 5 months ago. I thought it was normal for these 2 channels. Has anyone experienced a similar problem with these or other channels? I seem to remember seeing a...

    No Video for some channels on IA5

    Hi, Does anyone know why some channels on IA5 like M2 Maroc and Kuwait TV have no video? I receive their transmission fine (good signal quality and strength), the audio is very good quality, but no video and my receiver displays a NO VIDEO SIGNAL message. Thanks. TF

    Transponder Power

    Hi, I am getting IA5 (a.k.a. as T5) just fine, except I noticed that channels on TP2 are weaker than the rest of the channels on other transpoders! Does anyone know anything about that and if there is anyway to improve or increase the strength? Thansk. TF

    AC3 Audio

    Hi, Does anyone know why the PBS channels on AMC3 do not have audio? Is it possible that they are broadcast in digital AC3 audio that I have to use the optical port on my Digiwave 7000 receiver to get the audio? Any input is appriciated. Does anyone know on a reasonably priced AC3...

    Satellite position

    Thank you Pete. I am at Lat. 41.7026 Long. -71.4477 Zip code 02886. Have you used Invacom LNBs? I got model SNF-031 and I am not sure how to identify it to my Digiwave DG7000 receiver. My options are normal, universal, or LNBF. I also have this strange symptom. I just got a 100' coax...

    Satellite position

    Well, between the snow storms I finally got a window to work on my project. It is still very difficult to find any channels and I am not sure the compass and eyeballing the dish angle will work. Do you have any recommendations on any reasonable devices that can make the process of finding...

    Satellite position

    Thank you, Pete. This makes me feel a little better since I had some suspecion that my equipment was faulty. I have been trying to scan T-5. I got the Alt/Az data for it, but it seems that the process is more difficult than I thought. At least for Ku band satellites. Also, what should...

    Satellite position

    Hi, I am trying to setup my new equipment for FTA. I am confused though about the fact that I have a signal strength of about 70% and a fluctuating quality between 30-90%. But when I scan for channels I do not get anyhting. By the way, I still get the same strength and quality when I have...
