    Edision Mio+ with Hauppague 950Q OTA

    I have 3 Mio+ receivers. All have 950Q's attached. One box does not play well with the 950. I swapped in another 950. Still goofy. It will work fine for a couple weeks then the tune failed screen. A complete reboot always fixes it every time. I am currently using the side usb. I think the back...

    Testing the new Titanium C138 Performance Plus C Band LNBF

    Last few weeks my C band reception has suffered from major pixelization. My Ku dishes are fine. Ordered a Performance Plus C238. Lighting fast delivery but I do live in Northern Cal so it didn't have to travel far. Thanks Brian! Before pulling my old LNBF I double checked I was still having...

    Flashing a new copy of TNAP and 950Q tv tuner

    A small update on the rear usb port. It is intermittent. I moved my 950 tuner to the side port and have had zero problems. I suspect the tv tuner with coax hanging off the rear port loosened it up in some way.

    Help with Diseqc Settings in Mio+4k

    Brct203 and arlo I thought I would post an update on my Mio+ and my on going problem getting 18V to my multi switch. Well yesterday I was doing yard work and I moved an aluminum panel that I have leaning against my fence to protect the pvc pipe coming out of the ground that has the coax...

    The CW, again - I thought it was moving from 91 W to 93 W but today it was only on 91 W?

    Not sure if this will help but I am running a 7 1/2 footer. On 91 I get 4084H21600 at 12.8-13.0db I don't have 93W saved as a position. I input 4109H15000 into Signal Finder and bumped the ASC1 all the way from 91W to 97W. Not a blip of a signal found. This is at 5:30pm PT in California. Good...

    I think that is correct or it would have been officially announced.

    Flashing a new copy of TNAP and 950Q tv tuner

    It's not available as a online flash(the test version is) but the file is available on LegitFTA. Don't overwrite your present version as of yet. But you have 4 slots, go for it. I've had zero hiccups. If you can't locate it let me know and I'll add a link

    Flashing a new copy of TNAP and 950Q tv tuner

    Sort of a update. I flashed TNAP5 using usb 2 days ago. I have 3 Mio4K+ boxes. I flashed all 3 forgetting to disconnect my 950Q tuners. Yup all 3. Well the good news I had zero problems. I was not sure using TNAP 4.2 as "backup" would work with TNAP5 but since it was an option I went for it...

    Flashing a new copy of TNAP and 950Q tv tuner

    I use the online option only for the flashing of an image. Thank you for your posts. I'm leaning toward disconnecting the 950 before flashing next time. Hope to hear the opinions of others though. Seems it works both ways but I did have it not work on one Mio+ and never did get that flashed...

    Flashing a new copy of TNAP and 950Q tv tuner

    When flashing a new copy of TNAP is it best to unplug your 950 tv tuner? Does it matter? The reason I asked was I loaded a new copy of 4.2 with the tuner plugged in and it work fine. But on another Mio 4K + the tuner was seen but wouldn't work even after multiple reboots. Someday soon we should...

    DIY coax tightening tool

    A win-win. Two things I like to do combined. Build stuff and FTA. Thank you for the kind words! Added plus: maybe this thread will show others that there is another way to screw those connectors on.

    DIY coax tightening tool

    That's very similar to the one I bought. Yours was $2 more. Glad to hear yours works properly.

    DIY coax tightening tool

    You are correct. I bought a different version than the one you linked. Also from amazon. Unfortunately it was not only poorly made you had to force it onto the connector. So I returned it the same day it arrived. My tool is way beefier. I had considered applying skate board type tape but I think...

    DIY coax tightening tool

    A 7/16 wrench works fine if you have room for it to fit. Nearly impossible to use on my Zinwell 8 output switch. Same for my 4 output Geosat LNBF;)

    DIY coax tightening tool

    I've been fiddling with a bunch of switches as of late. My multi switches outputs are way to close together for my ol' fingers. I bought a $10 tool on amazon and it was awful. Returned it. So I scrounged around in my tool boxes and came up with four 7/16" deep sockets. One 12 point worked best...

    Help with Diseqc Settings in Mio+4k

    I have a spare Zinwell 4x4 switch. If I were to put it into service I'm not sure I could fit it in my switch box.;) I can remember when I fed only 1 tv with 1 dish. Now I feed 5 tv's with 3 dishes(5 lnbf) . Wish I had known the future I would have run 4 coax runs to each tv. 2 for satellite, 1...

    Help with Diseqc Settings in Mio+4k

    No problem with 22kHz here as I also use a 4x8 Zinwell multi switch to switch between C and KU lnbfs(dual outputs). I too wondered if my TNAP 4.2 image was at fault.

    Help with Diseqc Settings in Mio+4k

    Yesterday I tried to eliminate where my problem might be. I have a cable I made to do some OTA antenna testing. It will reach from my Mio out to the switch box. Tried it from the ASC1 to 1.0 switch. No go. Tried it direct from the Mio bypassing the ASC1. It works. Ok now I returned the ASC1...

    I just fried my meter, didn't I? Time for a new one?

    This won't help with an IPhone but I just fired up a ancient Google Nexus tablet and installed Signal Meter(by krkadoni) on it. I input my Mio's address in it and it works! Wonder if I can install it on an old Fire tablet. When it charges up I'll see.

    I just fried my meter, didn't I? Time for a new one?

    I don't have a Apple phone but Signal Meter is still on the Google Play store(Android). I just pulled 2 of my old android phones out of a drawer and checked to make sure the app was still working. Yup. I've a android tablet. I might see if I can load it on there also. Bet someone has a old...
