    Which HD receiver would be right for me? Help me make a decision.

    I have done a lot of reading but I can't make a decision on which HD receiver would be right for me. I also get confused when I look at the satellite lists from this site and another site as to which receiver would work for me to pick up those FTA signals in HD. Some of the channels on the...

    Big BLIND SCAN problem --- SV360 Elite

    Yesterday, I tried blind scanning GB (97W/ Galaxy 11/Galaxy 17) for C band channels. The Blind Scan started okay, but about 57 seconds into the scan the blind scan screen suddenly reverts back to the DISH SETTING screen. I could not even exit out of the Dish Setting screen. The SV360 had...

    Where is THIS in the morning?

    Ever since THIS on G4 Carribean was dropped and Live Well programming took over, I have had to watch THIS on the W3 satellite. However, the programming is not there in the morning. I start getting reception around 1:00 p.m.MST. So, I missed out on some horror movies today.:( Is THIS showing...

    920 loses DC lock on G1-3 and other things.

    Two days ago, my 920 was working perfectly. Today, I cannot pickup any channels on the western satellites usually beginning with T7 heading towards G1. . I have no DC locks on the channels that are supposed to have the green light. First thing this morning, I planned on changing out my...

    Programming one remote for two DSRs

    I want to program my Motorola remote to operate both a 922 and a 920 as separate units. I have tried following the instructions that came with the remote to use the AUX to program a code in for a 920. That did not work. I tried following the instructions in the 922 manual about programming...

    How do I readjust satellite positions?

    To make a long story shorter: I tried to adjust the chain on my Ajak to take up slack cause the dish would not go back to the same spot every time. Come to find out after the fact...after I did this... did that..., that the green pulse wire was loose. I reattached the wire. Now, the dish is...

    Flipped polarity satellites

    I am using a DSR922 and SV360 Elite. I need to find out why the 922 has to be turned "on" to view vertical channels on my SV360. :confused: These vertical channels are almost always on the flipped polarity satellites (vertical channels are even numbers); the 922 does not have to be "on" for...

    NPS -- no rehit

    The last time I did a master reset on my 922, I followed instructions about calling NPS for a rehit. I was told that they would not reset my clock unless I had programming with them or ordered programming. :rant: I didn't need or want any programming. I spoke with two different people who...

    Ajak H-H motor

    I am wondering if there is any interest from anyone about buying Ajak H-Hs. I have an opportunity to get my hands on two or three of them and want to decide if it is worth my time, trouble, and money in getting these Ajaks. If so, I would probably list them on eBay or wherever, whatever...

    DSR 922 and vertical channels

    In order to watch the vertical channels scanned in on my SV360 Elite, I have to leave my DSR922 "ON" to have any signal or picture. I have no problem with the Horizontals. The 922 can be off. I just hate having to burn the extra electricity by leaving the 922 "ON". Do any of ya'll have...

    Which C-band lnb for DSR922 would be best?

    My c-band lnb fried. It was about 22 years old. A good ole General Instrument lnb bought back in 1987. I do not know what degree range it was or any other details. Now, I see that vendors selling c-band lnbs with 20 degree, or a 17 degree, or a 13 degree and probably others. What would...

    The paint on my 8' mesh BUD has worn off down to bare metal. The dish used to be black. I live in an area with frequent high winds and an arid environment. The sun beats down on the dish without mercy most of the year. (No, I do not live in AZ. Utah is close enough to me! lol. :D) What...

    I have had my Chapparel C-band lnb for quite a number of years. (Don't hold its age against it). The lnb has worked fine for all these years, but now a possibility exists that it is going bad. What are the symptoms? What can I do to check the lnb and tell whether or not it is going bad or...

    Where is CBS now?

    Yesterday, on 99W Cband, WVXF CBS Virgin Islands suddenly changed to THIS tv network. :rant: Now, WVXF is advertising itself as THIS? Where's CBS gone to? :confused: BTW, I only have C-band. Too lazy to get Ku yet. I have too many things to take care of outside the house right now. Thanks.:)

    Which is the best direction to go? Slave my SV360 Elite to my DSR922 or slave my DSR922 to the SV360 Elite? I am currently using my Uniden analog receiver (without the VCRS module) as the dish mover. I have the lnb going directly into Tuner 1 of the SV360. I have a coaxial cable going from...

    I just recently purchased a DSR922 and a DSR920 from a local satellite dealer at a very reasonable price. These units had been sitting on his shelf for quite awhile. (He only installs the Dish Network now). I understand there are 2 batteries in each of the DSR's. One battery in the module...

    Terminology and location of by-gone satellites

    I need to know the definitions of "NETWORK" AND "OCS" and the purpose of each are. I did read every where before asking this question. These terms, of course, are on my dish setting screen. Also, what is SOFTKEY and how is that supposed to work? Also, anyone know the locations (degrees) of...

    No signal and/or locked channel

    I blind scan a satellite and several channels show up on the channel list. Now, when I go to see what is on the channel, the message "No Signal" or "Scrambled" appears on the screen. Is is fair to say that my transponder list may be out of date on a recently purchased SV360 Elite? and/or...
