    Been awhile since the coolsat has been on.... turned it on last night to find 8888 on the display and no video :( Tried unplugging overnight, holding power switch on back while holding combinations of the buttons on the front, still no joy any ideas to revive? or do I have a boat...

    BSC621

    My BSC621 arrived yesterday, but it has been too cold to think about installing it (0* right now, I known, for some of you this is not cold :) Anyway, looking at the BSC621, I notice that there is no polarizer control box (guess I did not really notice that it was not there when looking at...

    BUD setup

    Setup my first BUD years ago, and although I can find all the same documentation I am losing in setting up this one. I am at 94* 49'W 39* 45'N making my Galaxy 3C my true south satellite, which would put my declination angle at 40.21*, declination angle at 5.51* and apex elevation at 44.29*...

    Chaparral Sierra III no power :(

    Hit the power switch of my Chaparral Sierra III today and it did not hit back (well actually it did, since it did not power on :( The unit does not power on from the front panel or from the remote (even after changing batteries in the remote) I verified that it was plugged into a working...

    BUD maintenance

    Have not had time in awhile for this hobby until now :( I am at 39 *45' x 94*50, my south is G3C I have checked all my angles on the BUD (polar axis 40.21, declination angle 5.51 and apex elevation 44.29), which appear correct. There are no analog signals on G3C :( but I get 45% signal...

    pointing Ku dish

    In another post, a poster asked about pointing at G10, and among the good replies was a post that stated, 'get close - 127w or so and then move a nudge - 1/8" and scan' so, having never tried to point a Ku (but a couple of motorized C only) dishes (I am thinking about getting a Ku for a...

    switches (or combiners or ??)

    My folks had tried to subscribe to dishnet (because they were told that they would be able to receive 'local' channels, this is not the case, of course they did not find this out until after the install of the dish on the roof and a call back to dishnet when the locals where not there)...

    BUD setup

    Ok this is bad that I have to be asking this but I can't remember. I set up my own BUD about 3 years ago. Have been gone from my house for a few days on business and tonight when I tried to tune in something on the BUD I get nothing :( So I go out in the dark with my handy flashlight to...

    replaced actuator arm -- now no signal :(

    I had to replace the actuator arm on my BUD and now I have no signal :( I put the old actuator arm bad on the BUD and still no signal :( I checked all the cables, all appear fine. Now of course my LNBs could have gone bad, but I doubt both C and Ku went bad at the same time, if this is...
