I actually found this antenna in a resale shop for $10. It looked like an open box return that was donated, in like-new condition just missing a few mounting bolts or so. The box says SDV2940, it looks exactly like the MANT940. I have a tv in a room that lacks a jack to my rooftop antenna. I...

I know this is resurrecting an old thread, but I think I just solved the mystery of the extra payment. It came one year after I first subscribed to Dish, and it looks like it was just a matter of catching up from the 2-month payment on my first bill. In other words it looks like each month's...

Here is a strange mystery on my Dish Network bill. My online statement for this month shows the monthly charge already paid. The line listing just says "Payment - Thank you" with the amount. No date is given. I have had no changes to my service in a year. I am certain I did not pay it, and...

If he really wants to do it for cheap, buy a used Linksys WRT54G from ebay, craigslist or a resale shop. Flash it with DD-WRT and set it up in Wireless Bridge or Repeater Mode. I'm doing this with 2 units already. It's much better than using a commercial range extender, because the WRT54G...

At the risk of getting off-topic, I have been playing some DVD's from the UK on my 37" HDLCD, and they look very close to 720p HD quality. I'm using component inputs at 576p resolution. PAL DVDs from the UK have a resolution of 576 lines, vs 480 for NTSC (North American). My TV...

I have a house where it is almost impossible to run interior wiring to the second floor, for various reasons. I am not allowed to do any drilling or cutting of walls. I found the best (and very cheap) solution was: 1) run the 75ohm "TV out" signal over to the window 2) convert it to 300 ohm...

I signed up in April, Chicago area, EA 1000.4 dish. Many homes in the area have had sat for years, almost all the dishes point southwest. I am one of the very few pointing SE. Not too unusual to see 2 dishes on a house for WA. I have had no problems with rain fade or any kind of signal loss...

I live in house over 50 years old, that was renovated just a year ago. But the renovators gave no thought to any kind of wiring, other than power outlets. The previous owner never used the second floor, so there are no phone or antenna jacks there. The walls are plaster, very solid, with no...

Boy, this is resurrecting an old thread, but I just got some good results from 300 ohm antenna wire. I have satellite in my living room and wanted to run the receiver output upstairs to bedroom. (No need for 2 tuners - only one tv watched at once.) The place I'm living is going to need a...
