    Satellite Channels Moving to Streaming Only

    Is there any risk of damage to either the receiver and/or LNBF doing this? Isn't there a some small amount of voltgage going through the coax that feeds power to the LNBF? Could unscrewing the coax on a "live" receiver cause a brief short or surge if you are not careful when you unscrew the...

    Satellite Channels Moving to Streaming Only

    Well try it & see...worst that can happen is, that it doesn't work. BUT...the REAL test is, unplug the receiver from BOTH power & the dish, THEN try plugging it back in to power & see after the boot-up phase, if it eventually does switch to the streaming feeds. I have a suspicion it's NOT...

    I know of one stinger which definitely shrinks during extreme cold. ;)

    New Message on OTA station

    I just did a test using my Sony X90J. I tuned into both of the ATSC 3.0 signals that have DRM on with Ethernet plugged in and was able to tune into both fine, and the interactive features of both channels worked. I then tuned to an ATSC 2.0 channel and unplugged the Ethernet cable from my TV...

    Cold weather signal loss

    Not really, if the connection is tenuous extreme cold can shrink the center wire enough to pull it back from the connector. Make sure your stingers are adequate.

    Cold weather signal loss

    Back in the day they had a batch of bad Twin LNBs that brand new out of the box would lose signal on the first warm day. Replaced at least a hundred of them.

    That would be some incredible shrinkage.

    Future of C-band Radio Content Distribution

    5G usage of the C-band spectrum is just lame as f**k. There are far more worthless spectrum bands they could have taken away to give to cellular companies than the secret cool band where all the live events got backhauled that only a few technologically inclined individuals were 'in the know'...

    Cold weather signal loss

    Could be the center wire in the cable shrinks back away from the connection in cold weather.

    Satellite Channels Moving to Streaming Only

    Does that really work? (I haven't made the jump to the Wally yet - I still have my VIP211k but am thinking of making the switch)

    easier than that just unscrew the coax anytime it will default to signal protector on any channel that has a streaming variant.

    Cold weather signal loss

    It's the LNB affected by the extreme cold. Same thing happens with extreme heat

    Cold weather signal loss

    When the weather gets below 5 degrees, I lose the satellite signal. When it warms up to 10-15 degrees everything returns to normal. What could be the problem? LNB?

    Mayor of Kingstown - Paramount+

    Enjoyed season 4 a lot. Action packed as were the previous seasons. I wonder if there are any real cities remotely like Kingstown. Plenty of survivors for another season if they choose.
