Attached file is my satellite list for North America to replace the list provided with the receiver for European satellites. It is a work in progress. I have included all satellites I have access to, but I'm still scanning the arc for transponders on each satellite. I have completed all Ku...

Do I get danger pay for working on my dishes?

I see this receiver has a DLNA function listed under the Apps. I've switched it ON. How can I use it? Would this allow me to stream video from the receiver over my local network to my PC? I want to be able to view 4.2.2 on my PC as I do with my Edision. Or I want to be able to stream to my...

What do the 'T' and '17' fields mean?

Just stumbled onto this plugin which will be very useful for me while doing dish orientation and using the Edision via wifi as my sat meter to measure signals while at the dish. The Raed Quick Signal plugin, once installed, allows single key operation. Press 'Text' and the onscreen signal meter...

I've used my Edision Mio+ with my Hauppague 950Q USB adapter, but not lately and not with my current TNAP 5.1. When I plug the adapter into the USB connector and reboot, the Edision doesn't show it recognizes the adapter as Tuner C. I searched in all downloadable plugins and I don't see any for...

It's a slow night, so I thought I would share my newest toy at my satellite station. This is my 7.5-foot Perfect prime focus dish which I retrieved from rural Nova Scotia in 2012. I've never installed it until now. For the last few days, I've been manually pushing it between 139W through 87W to...

Can anybody point me to where the Service Reports are located? These are created each time you run a blind scan and stored. I used to refer to them but I can't find them anymore.

I notice my Ali chip receivers like GT Media, GSP microHD, Openbox S9 always blind scan first horizontal transponders then followed by vertical transponders. Sometimes on a given satellite, they scan from lowest frequency to the highest frequency. But on other satellites, they scan from the...

It seems C-band is better in the snow as well as the rain judging by these pics. My 4-foot Fortec kept receiving ARCS from 139W at 7.0 dB even though it had a little snow on the dish/LNBF. The Ku dish stopped receiving. Ku-dish (left) and C dish (right) Ku Dish C Dish

Santa drop-shipped. I need to pick them up tomorrow.

If you don't trust the accuracy of Lyngsat for listings of what's on satellites, then here's an idea. Spectrum Monitor magazine, November 2024 issue, has a complete listing of what's on Ku satellites from 133W to 15W. It is an article written by Mike Kohl. The chart in the article is up-to-date...

Here is a list printed on June 16, 2010 of satellites available at that time. And a chart from March 5, 2006.

I know this is a real shot in the dark....but I'm looking for anybody who may have an old SG-2100 motor with mounting bracket/bolts that aren't too rusted out like mine. My actual motor still works fine after 12+ years, but the bracket scales and bolts are rusted almost to the extent that they...

I have never used a satellite meter. I've always been able to use the wifi capability of my Edision receiver to see at the dish via my smartphone actual received SQ or similar techniques. But I find now I may need a satellite meter in my current environment. I have access to amazon.co.jp which...

Tomorrow I will go to Japan. I have been looking for a direct contact with anybody in Japan who happens to enjoy FTA but haven't found anybody yet. I've heard there are a few who pursue this activity though mostly on C-band I believe. If anybody has any direct contact with either a supplier or...

I typed the Mood Music channels into my V7S5X receiver using its editor. Also, the attached database has all the North American satellites configured and European satellites removed. This could be useful to anybody who has a new GT Media satellite receiver. Just unzip first and upgrade your GT...

When I read on Rick's that ABC has started changing their modulation and coding formats, I was wondering how big a dish is needed to receive a DVB-S2X, a DVB-S2 or a DVB-S signal. These calculators will help figure that out by showing minimum C/N lock values required for many types of satellite...

My problem symptom is simple. I have no LNB output voltage from this microHD. I have proved the receiver works fine if voltage is available to supply to the LNB. To do this test, I connected my Openbox S9 and used its loop through connector to connect the microHD. The microHD then works fine on...

I see that Digiwave is advertising new Ku motors and new 1.2-metre offset dishes at good prices. Their website claims items are in stock now. They have addresses listed in both the U.S. and Canada which may explain their reasonable shipping options. Digiwave Moteck Ku motor: US$112 or CDN$159...

The new TNAP 5.1 test image has been posted by el bandido. You can do the installation via your Edision online feature to flash the new image into an available slot. Be sure to keep valid older images in the other slots just in case you need to revert back. Installation went well and the...

For those willing to do a bit of work to get a free C-band dish, check this out: FREE Dish.

I've heard of the Wayback Machine. But I had never tried it. I read they have over 800 billion web pages saved from the past. Not to steal the thunder from Joseph Holloway (1998) but you can, for example, check this link and see what the satellite arc was like back in 2010 around when I got my...

Recently the Edision Mio line of receivers running TNAP5 has added the feature to allow display of SNR values for a transponder that is not locked. Here is a practical example of why this is useful. Montana PBS on 99W on a sunny day here can be 11.0 dB. But it can be tough to receive when it is...
