    MAV TV

    I wonder if Dish will ever get MAV TV back on their lineup? I would hate to have to move to Direct TV just for this one channel, but I may do just that. It seems like no one cares about motorsports on TV any more.

    Output Voltage

    What should the output voltage to the LNB be on a C band receiver? My 4DTV and Toshiba 1420 both show 20 volts. Toshiba TRX80 shows 17.5 volts. What is the minimum to get a picture?

    Receiver Repair Shops

    I have 3 older C-band receivers (4DTV and a couple of Toshibas) that don't work any more. I have decided that if I can get one repaired, I'm going to give the old C-band setup another try. Any suggestions on a repair shop? Has anyone used Professional Satellite Repair (psr1.com) before? If so...
