Can anyone confirm if the DSS broadcasts from 101W still do not have encryption on the audio?

Found one of these for $1 at a local thrift store. Amazon.com: 3 In 8 Out Multi-Switch: Electronics I just had to brag on here about it since nobody I see on a daily basis has any idea what I am talking about and gets glazed over eyes when I start telling them about anything FTA, haha. Anyway...

Does anyone know of a PCI card that allows you plug in both an OTA and clear QAM source so that you can tune them simultaneously? I want to be able to tune and integrate my FTA/OTA/clearQAM channels all at the same time and have them appear in my channel guide without having to physically...

Do any of you have any FTA experience with DVBLogic? DVBLogic - provider of digital streaming connectivity solutions

noticed "z channel TV" on ftalist.com on galaxy 19. I can't seem to find any information about this channel and there isn't a website. anyone have any idea what it airs?

Over the Christmas break I was at my girlfriend's grandparents who happen to have an old 15 foot BUD I have always admired and hope to have some day. This time I was there, I found the receiver they used with the BUD. It is a Uniden UST 7700 with remote (UST 7700i). They no longer use the BUD...

I think there should be a sticky thread in here about the Twinhan1020a and maybe a few of the other really popular cards. It would be nice to have one place to look for all the 1020a stuff without having multiple threads concerning the same thing. It just seems like a very common topic...

Just looking for an update on the status of tuner cards working with Windows 7 64bit. Anyone find any good ones recently or old ones that work on the Win7? Did anyone figure out how to get the Twinhan 1020a working without reducing the amount of RAM? I have been out of the loop for a few...

This looks pretty informative: LNB mysteries explained

Okay, so I have finally decided (mostly) on what I want my FTA setup to look like by this time next year. Let me know what you all think!

"The number of satellite and cable boxes on the Danish market using Linux has significantly increased during the last couple of years. The providers Viasat, Yousee and Stofa all provide HD receivers based on Linux, and all of them fail to provide the source code or make customers aware of the...

Has anyone successfully used a Pinnacle Pro usb OTA tuner with Ubuntu 9.04 (or any other version of Ubuntu)? I can't get it to work. I did some Googling and I didn't find any info that was very helpful.

Can I use a 22KHz switch between a dish and a 4x1 diseqc? The setup in question is in the attached pic. I looked through the switch FAQ and found some info not directly related to this question so I am not 100% sure it will work. I am trying to avoid buying another diseqc switch and my...

Does anyone know of a PCI card that tunes ATSC, DSS, and DVB-S/S2?

This is kind of neat....was doing some googling about QPH-031 and found this website. Free To Air (FTA) Discussion on SatelliteGuys.US | BoardReader

Yesterday, I took down a dish I wanted from someone's house (with permission). I got some roof repair caulk and caulked over the holes left by the dish mounting hardware. About 2.5 hours later it started raining. And it has been raining off and on for about the past 12 hours. I guess this is my...

Anyone ever tried one of these? NEW KU LNB QUAD LINEAR UNIVERSAL FTA LNBF 0.2 dB!!! - eBay (item 320400431127 end time Aug-16-09 20:48:36 PDT) :EDIT: I thought being a quad LNB meant it was made for both circular and linear, but after reading some more it looks like this is linear only. Is...

Last night, I re-aligned my dish to 101W. My setup is now a dish at 101W and a dish at 119W, and I have a 4x1 Diseqc switch connecting both of these to my Viewsat Ultra Lite. Here's the problem... ~Each one works when individually plugged into my receiver. ~If I use the diseqc 4x1, I plug in...

This weekend I'm going to pick up a Directv AT9 dish so I can play with some DSS scanning once I get a PCI receiver. DIRECTV Five LNB Ka/Ku Dish Antenna for MPEG-4 Compression HD Programming (AT9) | AT9 [DIRECTV] It says there are 4 outputs "capable of receiving DIRECTV satellite signals...

Does anyone know what package is on TP 12022? It is the same TP that MYX is on. The only info I can find about that TP is about MYX (which shows up as encrypted but is FTA). All the other channels, labeled 'Service01 - Service18', are encrypted, and I am just curious about who the provider is...

I am just wondering how long the wait time is for motorized setups? ie how long does it take the dish to move from one bird to the next when changing channels? Obviously it would take longer to go from 129W to 83W than it would take to go from 129W to 123W, but I'm just looking for an average...

I am trying to decide between two PCI receiver cards. One has DSS support and the other (which is cheaper) doesn't. Are there any unencrypted DSS broadcasts that are even worth looking for? Dish Network only has a couple FTA (NASA and Angel One), and I am assuming the FTA DSS broadcasts (if any)...

It seems like there isn't a lot of information on how to actually setup multiple LNB's on one dish. I have read through Linuxman's thread on receiving the whole Ku arc, and others like it, and while they are very informative and useful, they seem to be more like a running narrative of what is...

Found a cool pic comparing the sizes of Viewsat Ultra, Viewsat Lite, and Viewsat Ultra Lite. Kind of irrelevant, but cool to look at!
