    Big Brother 6

    Yep I have the live feeds. I can even watch from my living room tv. Have a look in my satellite pictures in my signature, look in the Wall unit folder. This is my first year with the feeds as I finally have high speed internet. I haven`t enjoyed BB as much this year as last year. I think the...

    Spun Aluminum

    Diamond Jim looking at your spun aluminum BUD made me think back to about 5 yrs. ago. I was given a 7 ft. dish and set it up in my yard one evening with a ku lnbf only . It worked great that night. Next day when I came home from work I couldn`t get any signal. Go outside and look at the dish and...

    mounting lnbf on Sami dish

    Trucker just make sure you get a scalar ring with the lnbf. It is the the scalar ring that attaches the lnbf to the dish.

    NASA on AMC7

    Ice I`ve been following with great interest in all you guy`s mini BUD projects. :) Kind of a reverse when us BUD users strap a DBS lnbf`s on our feedhorns and go signal hunting. The way I see it is maybe the mini BUD might not get a whole bunch of great signals but if you can grab a few here and...

    NASA on AMC7

    I just checked the signal and it is there ITC on AMC7-18. Be forwarned that NASA seems to have a lot weaker signal on that satellite for North American users. There is supposed to be new signals availible in MPEG/FTA on AMC 6 soon.

    seattle locals?

    BEV ch. 287-290 are Seattle locals. Did you take the $1 option for the extra set of nets which aren`t included in the Total TV Combo? The same thing happened to me last year when I switched to the TTC and I lost 1 set of nets until I called in and had to pay the extra $1.

    120cm dish with C-Band performance - Now with HD!

    Shawn I use a C/Ku lnbf on my 10 ft. BUD. I think they would work good for you guys and your mini BUD project. :yes You can also get a scalar ring to use with the c/ku lnbf that has a built in dss lnbf. The best of all three. Here are some pictures of the lnbf and scalar ring.

    Maddawg I`m in the same boat as you looking for a decent deal on a 1.2m to 1.8m offset dish in Canada. I got my 1m dish on E-bay a couple of years back for $30.

    expressvu smartcard replacement problems

    Mojo I had a neighbour call me a couple of weeks back with the exact same problem. No E5 update on a 2700 receiver. I talked to BEV on their behalf and tried the usual things like pulling the smartcard, switchchecks, etc. No go. The tech told me to turn off the receiver for the night and sure...

    About multiple recievers....

    I live in Alberta, Canada and got the phone call from BEV about a month ago asking for location ID`s on all 4 of my receivers. Yep 3 are plugged into phone lines at all times. That was the first time in 7 or 8 years with BEV.
