I'm inclined to still look for an old receiver. This application is just for music, with the output going to a small stereo setup. There is no TV in this scenario. For a music system, I don't care about other transponders. My wife uses this as well, and she appreciates simplicity of up/down...

Yes, you suggested the GTMedia box, if I remember correctly. It doesn't have channel changing buttons on the unit itself as far as I can see, and that's a requirement for my application.

No word from the seller or manufacturer regarding access to a channel editor for the Koqit box. I think this unit is one that is really not suited for the FTA community here due to that major flaw. So, my search shall continue.

As far as I can tell, there is no option in the receiver itself to copy or modify channels. Waiting to hear back from the manufacturer. I want those music channels!

Well, I ordered a "Koqit" V5H receiver from an ebay seller, as it seemed to click all the needs: channel display, channel buttons on the unit itself, AV out. I blind scanned 101W and it came up with what one would expect, and a single radio channel. There's no way to edit PIDs, so unless they...

Hey, folks. My venerable Viewsat VS2000 receiver has died; its number display is wonky and it no longer puts out audio. This is the one I use in the living room for music only, as it's attached to a small stereo system. If anyone has an old DVB-S receiver that has a remote control, front...

Never having used this platform before for selling, I didn't know there was such an option. Fixed.

All dishes are now with their new owner, who has 3 acres of available land and hopefully a great view of the arc!

Arrangements pending! Glad to help a fellow hobbyist.

Thank you, primestar31, for making sure I saw this. PM sent to Mr. Mcguire.

I had moved and couldn't set up my dishes until this year, and when I did, I realized that my view of the southern sky was limited. I still enjoy reading about other people's successes and finds, though. And I would very much like to get confirmation in early spring of where my view is. I...

I acquired these about three years ago from another member, in anticipation of being able to set up at my new home. I just don't have the space or line-of-sight. There's a 6 foot dish, an 8 foot dish, an 8 foot reflector-only, and I think three 1.2M dishes. I prefer to send them all to one...

At my current abode, I have a Wife Acceptance Factor to consider, so that means minimal equipment. Unfortunately, we were hit by hail a few weeks ago, and I'm waiting for an insurance adjuster. If we're getting a new roof, that means that there will be no satellite signals for a bit, BUT, I...

My first dish, which I still have, was a Globecast 75cm elliptical.I didn't know how to aim a dish then and it was really frustrating, but I kept at it, and got help from the community here. When the receiver started showing a blip and I got close, it was really exciting to know that I found...

I'd like to try this kit! Thanks, Casey, for the giveaway.

Thanks, FTA4PA! I explained what happened to my wife, and she asked me where we could go to buy another. I would wager there isn't a store within 100 miles that stocks such a thing.

Excellent suggestion. I just tried another piece of known good cable and there's no change. Meter is toast, I guess. New one will be coming soon enough, and I must remember to use connectors with it that screw together instead of the quick-connect sleeve style. In terms of problems, this...

I looked at the price of the Edision Mio+, and decided that it was out of the budget at this point. I ordered a replacement WS-6933 this morning from an ebay seller for a couple of reasons--price, already knowing how to use it, and now I'll have a spare battery for it. The project continues...

Hmmm...I am admittedly not up on current receiver trends. I don't have a smartphone, but I do have an ipad 6th generation. Is it possible to use that ipad with the Mio+?

I was just on the roof trying to tune with my Satlink WS-6933, and the piece of coax I was using fell off the LNB. I turned off the meter, reattached, and the Signal strength was at zero. I attached to five other known good LNBs, and got the same results. Is it toast? And if it is, what's...

Thanks for all the input. I ordered the Eagle Aspen recommended by iBoston. Hoping to start running some coax this weekend for when it arrives!

I have been away from the hobby for a couple of years. Bought a new house in 2020 and it took some time to do some site surveying and to get wife approval. When we were looking for a house, I was really hoping for a place with a good view of the southern sky and ability for C-band. Alas, it...

BOOM! :clapclap Thanks, primestar31!

I am trying to add the Muzak / mood channels to my GEOSatpro MicroHD using Mediabox Editor Studio (MES). I'd done this a few years ago, but in the meantime, my original MicroHD died and I must have deleted my .udf files. What's happening is that although I am able to add the correct audio pid...
