I use my Yamaha remote to turn my C61K on and off. The button quit working and I bought a replacement Yamaha remote. I can’t find a code for the C61K that will work. I think a DirecTV tech set up my Yamaha remote when he installed the C61K. Does anyone know what a good code might be?

I see in the guide that DTV will show a replay of today's Arizona Diamondbacks and the St. Louis Cardinals game at 6:30pm MST. Tonight's replay wasn't in their previous schedule. Even though the Dbacks lost today, I'm glad to see my first local team in 4K. If the game had been live, Phoenix...

I watched some of the Raptors vs Spurs game yesterday and thought it was stunning. There were a couple of short glitches, but nothing major. I had set it up to record, but the guide was screwed up and I got three hours of the ATT logo recorded at 3:00 am the morning before the game was played...

I posted this on What's Up There and got no responses. So I'll try here. TVROsat.com lists another 4K channel on 127W. 4170 H 10100-3/4 Can anyone verify this?

I doubt that an 8 foot dish will work for the 4K transponder on 103W, but I wonder if any of you have tried it. My 6 footer will get the NASA 4K channel on 127W, it won't handle the higher FEC on 103W.

I bought a KI Plus to get the NASA 4K channel. Getting the channel was pretty easy, but I need help with one issue on the receiver. When I'm entering something that calls up the on-screen QWERTY keyboard, I can't figure out how to OK or ENTER the data. Selecting the return arrow key does just...

Got an email yesterday about the Wetek Play 2. It can supposedly do 4K, 60fps off of the satellites. There are no photos of the backside. Checkout: http://wetek.com/product/wetek-play2 Hardware Specs Processor (CPU): Quad-core up to 2GHz (Amlogic S905H) GPU: Mali MP-450 Penta core RAM...

NBC is making some programming available in 4K on a 24 hour delay. Is DirecTV going to give us this programming? It's only a couple of weeks away!

Many years ago I had a 10' dish which I later updated with an HDTV Sat Receiver. I took it all down years ago. Later I had two Ku dishes set up for Canadian pay TV. After years of being away, I am now back in the satellite hobby. It cost me a little under $52. I found a man selling used 6'...

I just got off a long call with DirecTV. I wanted to renew my contract and upgrade to an HR54. After arguing with the first customer service rep who said that the HR44 and the HR54 are the same, I finally got to a supervisor who told me that they have no way to order a specific receiver and...

For a 1080i X 1920 program on Directv, what is the actual resolution they transmit?

A few of months ago I dismantled my 10ft. C/Ku dish, after almost 30 years of use. I have a couple of 36 inch dishes laying around and I thought maybe I'd try some Ku only stuff. I remember that PBS HD was on Ku, but is there anything else?

The technician just left my house, replacing a failed H20 with an H21. I complained to D* about losing my locals via my OTA antenna. The new receiver downloaded software version 0x434d after it powered up. Does anyone know if this software will work with an AM21. D* seems to be willing to...

I noticed my next door neighbor outside with a guy whose truck had a big Dish Network sign on the side. My neighbor was switching from DirecTV to Dish. I talked to the installer and he told me that the Dish Network satellites were in orbit 8.4 million miles from the earth and that is why they...

I just posted a Star Choice DSR505 HD receiver in the classified section, if anyone's interested. Al

I have a Star Choice DSR505 receiver for sale. Since they went to 8psk, the Detroit HD channels have been iffy at best here in Arizona. I also have two (2) Pansat PF-7600S LNB's that I've been using with the receiver. DSR505 Receiver $150.00 PF-7600S LNB $25.00 each. Buy one or...

I've had D* (with OTA locals) for about 3 weeks and I finally looked at the D* LIL HD picture. I expected it to be much much better. I've read here that the mpeg4 picture quality was almost as good as the OTA picture. At my house it's not even close. If my OTA picture is a ten, then the D*...

After 25 years with a BUD, I no longer subscribe to any programming. I plan to take down my dish, but it's going to hurt. I had subscribed to HBO, STARZ, and Showtime through my 4DTV. I now have D* and to my surprise the HD movie channels are as good or better on D* as on C-band. That said...

I got the install this past Monday. Today (Wednesday) I had to call in because the zero button on my remote doesn't work. They had the nerve to tell me I had to pay $15.00. I told them to discontinue my service and two supervisors later, I got my free remote. I'm not very impressed with...

I'm having trouble with my old 811 receiver dropping HD channels. I tried to call Dish and got the godawful recorded help. Is there a direct 800 line into tech support?

Earlier this year I posted info about my attempts to receive StarChoice HD programming in Phoenix. Without the help of members here, I never would have reached this point. My goal was to watch only F2 HD programming with a single dish/lnbf. After getting a replacement for a faulty 505A...

This was posted on the 4DTV forum of Satforums. "NPS was just notified by HITS, they are getting ready to launch an HD suite in the next couple of months, that will be in 4dtv Compatible mode. At this point we believe, possibly on sat w4. I will know more in the next couple months, but...

I turned on my 505a receiver last night and got the "loss of signal" message. Changing channels proved that only two of the 15 HD channels had "loss of signal". I had made a list of all the HD channels along with the Ebnos. Guess what, the two channels giving the message were the two with the...

I recently changed from BEV to StarChoice and went with a single dish/single LNBF pointed at F2. I've been pleasantly surprised that I have continued to receive an updated program guide even though I no longer am pointed at F1. I've been pointed at F2 for six days.

I'm in the process of getting StarChoice and would appreciate a little help. Does the *C receiver have an ATSC tuner? I believe it does. Does the receiver output SD and HD simultaneously? I believe it does. Does the component HD video output stay active when the receiver is off...
