    guide on the fritz?

    My guide hasn't worked for the last 3 or 4 days now. My favorites list only one channel and the full guide is missing sats. Is this a problem with my reciever or is it a ongoing problem? thanks,

    fine tuning programmed satillites

    I've recently noticed the need to fine tune sats that have already been programmed in my receiver. I have to adjust east /west to get my desired quality back. Is this the reed sensor going bad or a issue with my 922? thanks

    inline amps

    Anyone have a opinion on these little inline amps that are powered by your receiver? I have a cable run over 200ft, and was wondering if they help. I know you can't get something for nothing, meaning it might boost the signal but it also boost noise...

    warm up cycle then off

    Help! My beloved DSR922 is behaving strangely. After roughly 5 mins., it clicks off then goes through the warm up cycle, will work for another 4 or five mins., then bang, it does it again. I've tried unplugging it for several minuets but that doesn't correct the issue. Any ideas...

    Hi, I have a 905 sidecar with the HDD-200 and from time to time the picture blacks out for a brief second or two. Could this be the data cable?, and what purpose does that little washer on the decoder end serve? I'm currently waiting for a 922 I just bought and maybe this problem will go...

    16 vdc, yet no signal!

    I recently fire up my DSR 922 and am having no luck getting a signal. I get voltage at the lnb yet ziltch on the signal strength.
