    Channel master rotor problems

    Is there anyway to check if the rotor is working without bringing it down? Mine is 200 ft up in a tree. I bought a new cm 9357 controller. But still doesn't turn. And I am not sure it is syncing right. It does not sync to the antennas position. The wires do not seem to be shorted out at this...

    Changing Pole Diameter - 3.5" OD to 3.0" - How to?

    I think that you will be better off to just replace the pipe! It is going to be hard to get the new piece to be level. The time and work spent will not be worth it.

    What KU FTA receiver(s) do you have or use?

    My Pansat 5000 just died. It was about two years old. I wasn't very happy! My wife was even less happy!! So, I bought a Coolsat 5000. I wanted the blind scan. I am going to miss the hard drive. It is a great way to record. Can you buy a unit with just a hard drive for recording?

    Pictures of a Primestar Dish.

    No I am not using the original LBN. I took the single LBN ,SHN-031 invacom LBN, that I had on my motorized dish and zip locked it on the Primestar dish. The Primestar dish that I got didn't have it's original LBN. It seem to work fine with the zip locks.
