    What do you think....is this a scam?

    How would you respond? ________________________________________________________________________ HI, My name is Saad and i have a small call center in Pakistan, we make sales on dish network, both new and existing customers (out of contract only). According to our assessment there are a lot of...

    sorry for the confusion... just a misunderstanding.... I forgot that with satellite guys 'antenna' means the dish.

    Are there other satellites I could point it at with FTA transmission? There is a newer LNB on it that can interpret both linear and circular polarity. Or is the dish just too small to read most linear satellites?

    Upon doing a little investigation it seems I could also connect an OTA antenna to it.... is this correct?

    dish500

    Will this work for linear transmissions? What I am wanting to do is take this 1000.2 dish and use it for true free-2-air. Or else is there a way to put a linear lnb on it?

    I was just checking. It is port 4?
  8. M

    dish500

    cool Then, port 4 is an input port. So what do you input? Could you integrate another satellite?

    118 is seen by the birdog. out of port 1 the birdog detects satallite 118.7, 119,and 129. Out of port 2 the birdog says it sees 110. There is no switch or DiSEqC combining the signal into one cable so I don't understand how it sees the 110 coming out of port 2 since the cable coming from port...

    Goofy me... it is 129 not 127. As for the 118 bird that is what it tells me. After the switch test it tells me that on all of the birds listed (119,110, and 129) trans is ok and that reception is verified. It also informs me that the switch is a DPP 1K.2

    Seriously.... my dad's dish has 118, 119, and 127 locked in the barrel numbered 1 while the barrel numbered 2 has satellite 110 pinned. I have further found out that it is a turbo hd dish not a dish500.

    Sorry about posting in the wrong forumn. About my dad's system.... he is up and running. I'm just trying to learn with it. It aught me about 1F and 2D after all!

    nfusion 'joiner'

    I am not hacking. I am not getting nfusion boxes. I just want the joiner thingy. If I was going to get an nfusion box I wouldn't need to ask about what these things are or were to get them because they come with the box. 110,118,119,&127 are what my dad are pointed at and he is paying for his...

    nfusion 'joiner'

    When I was working with this guy we were installing nfusion boxes. something that came with the nfusion box was a .... switch <?> that joined the signal of multiple birds so you could have different satellites but only one line. My question is what are these devices called and where can I get...

    My father was told it is a dish500. There is no multiswitch in the configuration. The dish has written on it 'turbo hd'..... hmmm..... my dad's dish on his old house was a dish500. He was just assuming it was the same dish. The dish installation setup screen says that it is a dish500. Oh...

    dish500

    thank you so much for the help. It seems, however, that reality is not matching with theory. 118 and 119 are not on seperate ports but rather both are on port 1 while port 2 has satellite 110. >> The other two in this configuration are "dual " or "Single" >> output LNB's.....They are NOT port...

    BUD I thought a BUD was something like a 5+ foot diameter dish. Please quantify BUD for me.
  19. M

    dish500

    if that is the case doesn't fss (linear polarization) require a BUD? Further.... are you saying that 118,119,&129 have linear polarity while the 110 has circular polarity?

    port numbering As I was getting instructions on how to set a dish500 up I was told that satellite 118 is on port 1F. Now, I know that port 1F is the first port labled 1 but why is an F appended to it instead of simply calling it port 1? As I was researching the answer to this query it became...

    dish500

    The dish, which is setup and running, is not using a switch (at all). I am assuming that the switch is in the LNB itself. This is what is confusing me: there are 4 ports running out of the LNB; ports 1, 2, 3, and 4. I hook my meter up to ports 1 and 2 and out of port 1, satellites 118, 119, and...

    I posted this previously in the wrong area so now I am posting it here. Well, I thought that after I pinned the 118 on port 1F I was also supposed to have the 110, 119, and 129 also locked but discovered that to be wrong... sorta. On the first port I have locked satellites 118, 119, and 129...

    wrong lnb?

    the dish500 I have been testing has on the first port satellites 118,119,and 129, while port 2 has the 110. the cable running out of port1 runs into a receiver while the cable running out of port 2 doesn't go into anything. what am I missing? The tv it is hooked to is receiving everything it is...

    Well, I thought that after I pinned the 118 on port 1F I was also supposed to have the 110 locked but discovered that to be wrong... sorta. My parents have a dish500 and I was inspecting it to see if I could learn anything from it. On the first port I have locked satellites 118, 119, and 129...
