    Friday Fun: Mystery Dish

    Well I went to a Doctor's Office the other day and this dish caught my eye. Not the dish itself that really caught my eye. I think I've got the purpose figured out, so I thought I'd let you all take a guess. The first image is a cropped version of the second original image a 1.0 MB 7MP image

    SSL/HTTPS Certificate Expired

    Scott, It's that time again. The certificate for SatGuys expired today. I'm a bit paranoid and I don't like checking WUT without being in HTTPS mode. Yes I know I can save the expired cert in Firefox for now, but I thought Operations might like to know.

    DSR-410 vs. DSR-4200

    I was browsing the Bay and found a used HITS2HOME DSR-410 and 3 new DSR-4200 each less than $50 So I searched last night over the DSR-410 and the DSR-4200 (Probably half the problem *snicker*) The 4200 seems to be all manual The 410 supposedly is useless for W5 unless I sell it to Skyvision...

    While I visited Glacier National Park, I saw these gems. I assume they use them in this order for connectivity: WildBlue (Ka) looks like the first rain cloud would wipe it out Hugesnet (Ku) on a 3 foot dish And the 4+ foot monster (Ku) Any one care to guess how big this one is and make? I also...

    How should I go about restoring the functionality of the timers on my DVR-1100c I'm very frustrated not having them. :mad: From what I've gathered elsewhere, I shouldn't load an older firmware since that will cause more problems. I have a copy of 3.15. With 3.15 timers worked. JPEG Viewer was...

    Confirmation of analog channels

    So yesterday I was trying to set up the DSR922 on the 8.5 foot solid [Note to Mods: I put this in C-band since I'm focused on finding/confirming C-band analog channels and not DCII, however feel free to move it to the appropriate place] I decided since I had gotten C-Span a year ago through the...

    Advice on adding a DSR-922 to a DVB-S/DiSEqC system

    Well I built my grandparents system as a DVB-S/DiSEqC fixed system. The time has come to add a DSR-922 into the mix but I learned that the DSR-922 does NOT like the Loop-Out of a Coolsat 6000. Everything ends up powering down as though there is a direct short is in the line. I'm in the slow...

    Which to motorize for reliability?

    Well I'm stuck. I'm frustrated with my 75e and trying to replicate a 3-LNB set-up for 83-89-97 on it, spending minimal time. And now the rainy season has come so it's becoming inadequate for reliable reception. My Geosatpro is fixed on 123W The single-polarity 75e known LOS is 87W to 116.8W...

    Review: Geosatpro DVR-1100c

    What a box. With what time I've spent with FTA boxes, I spent my time learning FTA on the Coolsat 5000 and its sibling/twin the Coolsat 6000. They are held as some of the best FTA/DVB-S receivers. As for DVR's, I've only really used Windows Media Center and MythTV. I figured the DVR-1100c had a...
