    FTA & OTA with the same box.

    Hi All, I have three IRDs ( Viewsat 2000 Pltinum & Extreme, Coolsat 5000 ). Can any of these boxes be used for FTA & OTA( over the air digital TV ) signals at the same time? Thanks.

    20db Amplifier w/ FM trap & gain control

    Thanks to all of you. Lots of great info from all. The names on the antennas are faded and can't tell even the model numbers. The purpose for using two antennas was to get better signal - or so I thought. Obviously, I had no idea. I will have to reconfig my set up based on info provided...

    20db Amplifier w/ FM trap & gain control

    Hi All, I set up smaller and older antenna( the clothes line type )and I also set up a small square, 12"x12", ota antenna. Both antennas work separately but I decided to use them together by using a splitter. I placed them both on the roof and turned( adjusted) them for best picture. My...

    Coolsat 4000 Pro programming problem

    Have you tired turning it off and on using back off and on switch? Have you tried erasing all channels and reinstalling factory firmware?

    4' C band dish

    Hi All, I got my first C band dish - which is a 4 footer. I have not included any pics since i wanted to get some prelim info first. I have a dish set up for KU already using two LNBs connected to a switch ( 4X1 DiSEqC ). Can I connect this C band dish to my switch or do I need 'special'...

    OTA degradation as line gets longer.

    Sorry Iceberg, I was not able to scan in channel 18.6, as an example. But I was able to scan it in at shorter distances. This antenna we installed at my folks home and they are not close by. It is the biggest outdoor one HOME DEPOT sold ( GE...

    OTA degradation as line gets longer.

    Thanks, We have two TV's for now and they are DTV ready so no converter box is needed. The image is great on the TVs and there is no 'pixilation'. It is just that we are not getting all the channels which we can get a shorter cable runs. Our address is: Corona, CA 92881. I tried the 'tv fool...

    OTA degradation as line gets longer.

    Thanks Ice, Actually we did a lot of looking at and trying to configure the best location for the antenna. This is a two story house we are talking about. The 'best' location was also the most convinient which was at the chiminey. Unfortunately, the 'box' which connects to all the TVs was...

    OTA degradation as line gets longer.

    Thanks boba, I did install the biggest antenna we could buy. I know biggest doesn't mean best but I was told it was better than a smaller one. Before bolting it down I also moved it around to find the best angle for the best signal too. What I noticed was that at about 110 feet I could scan in...

    OTA degradation as line gets longer.

    Hey All, I recently installed an OTA antenna for digital channels. I noticed that as the line ( coax cable ) gets longer some channels start dropping off. I noticed that after about 100 feet I loose many channels. I assume some signals are too weak to be pushed by the antenna at longer...

    125.0° with a 30" dish

    Hey All, I attempted to 'tune into' sat 25 (AMC21) using the following TP 12140 V 30000 but can't get higher than 69% Quality. Can't get anything on TP 12179 at all. I'm confident that the dish is plumb and aimed properly. Is this because the dish is too small for this sat? Thanks.

    The lnb is fixed onto the dish, you mean when turning the dish side to side?

    TP on 97 sat ( Galaxy 19 )

    Hey Folks, I added a second lnb to a DirecTV 36" WorldDirect dish for above mentioned sat. The quality for lnb hovers around 65% - 69%. Lots of channels come in just fine. I added TP 11842 H 22000 where a bunch of new religious channels are found at. These channels did not come in on any of the...

    Lost my sound.

    Thank you all for your help, I fixed it at my end. I had a some visitors for the week-end and they finagled with the TV remote and 'accidently pressed' the wrong button.

    Lost my sound.

    There is a mute button but that goes off once you press either the up or down volume buttons. The receiver is connected via coax thru a coax switch to an old 32" SONY Triniton. ( At the other end of the switch is my old VCR.) Anyways, I connected the receiver to another TV and found out the...

    Sat 125 and Superdish

    Thanks pro96, I'm not sure what you mean by 'outwards'. If you mean back a little the lnb is right at the end already. I'll give it a shot though.

    Thanks pro96, did that already, 2X, but it was a no go. Am I to leave it off for a specific period of time?

    Sat 125 and Superdish

    Hi All, I am trying to set up a Superdish to hit sat 125/AMC 21 (looking for PBS). My zip is 92821 with: EL 49.5 / AZ 179.5 / Skew +10.4 or 100.4 on the dish. Have set up LNB as single with 10750. Have tried all TPs in manual scan but can't get any green bars. I'm using an original FSS lnb...
