Dear Mr. Brannen, I tried to use your suggestion, but evidently not as you would have done. I fouled up the channel I was trying to restore, whose number was 1. Sadly, without trying to do anything to No. 2, I also did something to it, and now it shows No. 1's silent picture. By sheer luck...

Dear All, I am a Pansat 9200HD owner who wanted a better machine. I bought an AZ Box Premium HD Plus. Compared to the 9200HD, it is wonderful. It works very slowly, but it shows me channels that the Pansat could never have displayed. One of these channels is silent. Every attempt to give...

Dear WAYLEW, Thanks so much for the extremely helpful advice. It worked like a charm. Gordon

Dear ALL, Please disregard this message's prior content. The impasse I had reached was largely of my own doing. White man have egg on face. As I said in that earlier content, I have bought an AZ Box Premium HD Plus, but was encountering severe trouble. Last night, my lady suggested that I...

Dear POPCORN N MORE, When you wrote your last message concerning the Optibox Anaconda, you were replying to Jim S.'s report that his Gekko sometimes skims through a transponder without finding anything. You said that the same was true of your own Anaconda. My guess is that, given its erratic...

Dear SATELLITEAV, Thanks for the quick information. Nothing beats knowledge. Gordon

Dear POPCORN N MORE, Thanks for replying so promptly. Have you heard whether Optibox will make a receiver that includes 4:2:2? Where could I learn what Optibox's customer service number is? I could call them and ask them directly. Thanks. Gordon

Dear POPCORN N MORE, Have you heard whether Optibox plans to market a receiver that displays 4:2:2? I, too, was very favorably impressed by your Optibox's graphics. They beat those of my Pansat 9200HD. I hope that future programmatic revisions break "the 81% barrier." When those revisions...

Dear Gents, For years now, I have been trying to see "Inter Russia" on SatMex 5 at 4123 H 1790 2 / 3. Lyngsat has been showing this channel, and some other services have been showing it too. Others have not been able to see it, evidently, because they do not show it. Maybe the broadcaster has...

Dear MIKESKYSOLDIER, From what I have read, an eight-footer is the absolute bare minimum. I live in south-coastal Oregon. I use a ten-footer, and it sometimes cannot bring in some broadcasts. A sound and dependable twelve-footer would probably show me everything FTA. Sadly, new dishes'...

Dear DJdish, I have not yet tuned in to that channel, but I bet I know why they include that horn. They figure, "Shofar so good!" Gordon F. Corbett

A Conversation with Mr. Rick Caylor Dear All, Yesterday, I had a very pleasant and informative conversation with Mr. Rick Caylor. He told me that the "ME" receiver is not yet ready for sale. That much, I knew. He said also that after its current deficiencies are resolved, the "ME" will...

Is 4D Map Master Legally Dangerous? Dear All, I just read Mr. Scott Greczkowski's message accompanying the notice that he has merged the 4DTV Forum with the C-Band Forum. He began by telling his readers that 4DTV is dead. To substantiate his idea, he cited a couple of events. Those things...

Dear All, I looked at my Apple Safari web-site and saw the page for the 4DTV Forum. It told me that there are no messages in it. I then looked at the appropriate location for this particular Forum, and it was not there. What has happened? Sincerely, Gordon F. Corbett

Hooray! Now you are talking! I have been waiting for Iceberg to evaluate that machine. I mean no derogation of the other reporting users, including especially Stone and you, but even I know that Iceberg writes good reviews. The Manhattan entered the market quite some time ago, and Mr...

Dear Phottoman, I was sent an earlier item. Dear friends, The Pillsbury Doughboy died several years ago of a yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71. First reports were incomplete, but today we bring you the full story. Doughboy was buried in a...

Dear stogie5150 and ALL, I got my Norsat LNBs from Satcom Resources. Gordon F. Corbett

Dear FaT Air, Thanks for your reply. I am gradually seeing that experimentation and empirically derived results are the keys to using my outfit. The splitter to which I refer is not a small, silvery gadget, but a boxy plastic thing. The repairman had a specific name for it, but when I...

Dear FaT Air, Sadly, there is little I can tell you. We bought our ten-foot mesh dish in 1994, but we do not know its brand. With it came a General Instrument 550i receiver. Together, the salesman from Salmon Harbor Inc. told us, they made up the "Ultimate" package. We used the 550i until...

16904.1 Dear All, I am sorry to bother you with this, but I have just discovered something that I should have learned as a newbie. I have a Pansat 9200HD. I have "slaved" it to our DSR-920. The Pansat's Antenna Setup window has several controls. One is the "DiseQ" control. There are...

Dear mr3p, Thank you very much for relaying that statement. To my ears, it sounds like the kind of thing that someone would say if he had been told by an attorney to say it. Pansat, like a great many other distributors and designers, was haled into court because of their alleged connivance...

Dear FaT Air, Such a motor might have been worthwhile for a U. S. West Coast student of Russian who wanted to tune in to the Molniya (Lightning) satellite over Siberia, if it is still there. Of course, he or she would have needed a very large dish to pull in its signals and a Snell standards...

Dear EUROSPORT, First, I think that the program is in French. Please explain why you think that the 9500HDX is junk. The ALI folks have created a desirable set of chips, and everybody and his dog are sticking them into their new receivers. Given that these chips perform well, keep cool...

Dear brentb636, When they issue an improved model, I hope that it will include skew control. According to Mr. Schumann, the factory told him that too few people want skew control to justify its inclusion; but, I think that if he offers the factory extra money to produce a model that includes...

Dear All, Thanks so much for your information. I started this thread because when I looked at the AZ website, it seemed to be saying that the receiver has been on the market for a while; consequently, I wanted to see what its good and bad points are. Maybe we all will have learned about them...
