    c and ku on an azbox?

    I have just got an azbox, and it is so nice. The Buckeyes looked good in HD, but the Bearcats look really good tonight! I have a 1 meter ku with an hh motor that I had hooked up to a Mercury II. I have a bud with an actuator hooked up to a Dynamic. Is there a way to slave the AZbox off both...

    rtv on galaxy 19c

    Can anyone tell me why I can't get the RTV station on Galaxy 19C? I put in the transponder 3919, and then put in signalrate 1970, and it shows a strong signal. I click on store, and it changes the signal rate to 2180 and losses the signal. It will not store the 1970, how can I change that? oh...

    Good dual tuner receiver?

    I don't know about disecq 2 either. I have a gbox to move my big dish now. Can anyone explain what is the difference of disecq 2, and if the pansat 6000 will move my big dish with the gbox?

    Good dual tuner receiver?

    does pansat 6000 have component hookups? Thanks Danny, I have been reading the review of the pansat 6000, and one thing I can't seem to read clearly is if it has component out jacks? Does it? It does sound like everything I need and more, the pvr would be great to have. I had almost decided to...

    Good dual tuner receiver?

    Could anyone recommend a good dual tuner receiver? I have read the reviews for SV 360 elite, and they don't sound so good. I am thinking about one for 2 reasons. I have a motorized 1 meter on a hh motor, and an actuator on a big dish. Right now I have them on seperate receivers, a Mercury II...

    Gbox messing with my hh motor?

    2 separate systems Thank you both for the reply. Anole, I read some of the post you suggested, and it was more than I could comprehend. But, I did understand enough to put it together with what Lak7 said and separated the 2 cables and am using 2 different receivers. Now, the only problem I have...

    Gbox messing with my hh motor?

    I was feeling so good yesterday, setting up my bud was way easier than I ever thought it would be. What a difference a day makes! Now, everything is screwed up. I have my Fortec Dynamic, wire going from it to the gbox, to a disecq 4x switch. lnb 1 and 2 to invacom lnb on 1 meter dish with an...

    How to position geosat c2 lnb

    I just received my new geosat c2 lnb. I notice that in the end it has marks that indicate 0 and 30 degrees both directions. How do I mount it, 0 up, or down? Does it make a difference?

    what do I need to move a bud?

    Any strong signals on Brasilsat at 84? Just looking at lyngsat, I don't see much east of 87, is there anything to look at over there? On my ku dish, I go from 74 to 127, and I don't see much on c band past those sats either.

    what do I need to move a bud?

    how do I find true south with a bud? I have already ordered the gbox and the geosat c2 lnb. I am hoping to make it as simple as can be. But I was wondering, how do you go to 0 with an actuator on a big dish? AMC 9 at 83 will be my southern most satellite. How do I know if the dish is at the...

    what do I need to move a bud?

    thanks for the tip Thanks delta_charlie, it was a little stuck, but with some lubeoil and elbow grease, it is working smooth as can be, at least off the dish. I believe I am ready now to hook things up, just have to order a gbox and lnbf. I sure appreciate all the tips, and I expect I will...

    what do I need to move a bud?

    polarmount bearings? One of the bearings on the polar mount is bad, rusted solid. Does anyone know where I would look for a bearing like that? The only number I could find on it was: SP 008T. I tried to look on-line, but found nothing. I will call around tomorrow and see what I can find, but if...

    what do I need to move a bud?

    Windows Vista Business? Does anyone else use Windows Vista Business? I learn to hate it more and more each day. It is so stripped bare of any useful apps, and loaded with seemingly pointless security features, that I can't seem to accomplish much of anything. Even though it is loaded on a new...

    what do I need to move a bud?

    What a beautiful site! Well, it may not qualify as a dish farm, but it is still beautiful to me!. I can't wait to get things up and running. I don't have any way of testing the motor. Everything is pretty rusty. I don't know whether to try to take it apart and clean it up, or just wait till I...

    what do I need to move a bud?

    Pics of dish, actuator and lnb The pole is set and I'm on my way to being a proud BUD owner! I am leaning toward the g or vbox and new lnbf. I think things will be complicated enough without trying to run through an analog box.

    what do I need to move a bud?

    Will fungus affect the signal? I will take some pics tomorrow and post them. I will have a few days to set the post in the ground, so that will leave me time to sort the motor/servo situation out. Thanks to all, I really appreciate it and I am getting excited about working on this bud! And that...

    what do I need to move a bud?

    What does the servo do? Is there another way to operate it. I have looked at the lnb, it is a chaparral, and then there is a uniden blue box attached to it, I suspect that is the servo.

    what do I need to move a bud?

    I just got a 10 foot fiberglass dish that I am about to start putting up. I have been using a 1 meter fortec star on a motor for ku, and will continue to use it. I want to use the bud for c band only. I have a fortec dynamic receiver. Is that all I will need to receive c band? I know I...

    audio on AMC 21?

    Any idea what to do if it does not? I have scanned 3 times now trying to get it to work. The optical cord is the only audio cord I have hooked up, so the receiver is definitely working, I have audio on all other sats. I wish they would have just left pbs on amc 3!

    audio on AMC 21?

    I have a Viewsat 2000 extreme. Since PBS switched from AMC 3 to AMC 21, I have not been able to get audio. On my old Mercury II box, I had to set up the audio for the optical, do I have to set something up in the Viewsat? I have had a lot of difficulty since the switch. After doing a autoscan...
