    Dvr crashed, can I get the recorded shows?

    I have to mention that I had trouble recording from my Directv DVR to my DVD recorder when I had HDMI cables hooked up. When I disconnected the HDMI cables and used the old fashion Yellow,Red,White cables, I was able to record from HBO. However, I have not tried to record a Pay Per View like...

    G-16 NBC Wyoming

    That is why I want it so bad. Still can't get it re-working since I messed my dish up on Friday night (went too far west). It was coming in fine until then. I am calling my satellite expert friend to come out and take a look at it. Luckily, there is another NBC station on the 3845 that is going...

    G-16 NBC Wyoming

    Hey all. Is anyone out there getting a signal on the G-16 (99 Degrees) for the Wyoming NBC station? Its specs are 3776-3256-H polarity. I am getting a great signal on the 3845 but no signal on that one. I want to watch the Raiders vs. Saints game. I think there is an NBC New York local on the...

    Help-My Dish is Stuck

    Guess what everyone? My dish is stuck again!! Because my G-Box gives me constant E-2 errors, I moved it to far westward tonight and now my dish is stuck. My buddy could not figure out how to set the limits with the actuator and even if he could have, the E-2 error would probably override this. I...

    Bad LNB-What to buy?

    It looks like I have a fried DBS Int'l LNB 741. Can you all direct me to the best replacement LNB I should buy? I would prefer one without the Cervo motor. I just bought a new Manhattan RS-1933 HD receiver and now I cannot use it. Frustrating. Thanks Bob

    Is HGTV choppy/pixelated for anyone else today?

    I don't know about HGTV but I have this problem often on my network channels. Especially ABC (Modern Family is the worst). Tonight, I noticed it on CBS (How I Met Your Mother). Do you ever have this problem on any of these channels or is your problem only with HGTV? I already had DirecTV come...

    Help-My Dish is Stuck

    Thanks for the suggestions Lone Gunman. I have updated my signatures. My friend came out and discovered a broken actuator. The motor inside is broken so I will need a new actuator. He put my dish on the 99 for me so I could at least get some TV out of it. He asked me how you set the limits on...

    Help-My Dish is Stuck

    Thanks for everyone's suggestions. I got ahold of my sat guy and he is going to come out to my house. I really like the idea of setting the limits with the motor. I will talk to him about that. As for my settings, my dish guy has all of that. Thanks again to everyone trying to help. I am about...

    Help-My Dish is Stuck

    Thanks everyone. Yes, I did reset the box too. My friend stood outside and said her heard a motor trying to work but the dish wasn't moving. Looks like a broken gear of some kind. Or, perhaps I need a new actuator. What do you guys think?

    Help-My Dish is Stuck

    Hello, I have an 8 foot BUD with DMS Int'l LNB (no cervo motor). I use a G-Box to move it. The G-Box has worked nearly flawlessly but once and awhile, it belches a bit and loses it's memory. It's usually easy to reprogram but this time, it looks like it sent my dish beyond it's limits (East). I...

    Hello all. I currently have a subscription with SkyVision for the Denver and Miami locals and I love them!! Got to see the Denver vs Oakland game this weekend that was blacked out here locally because of this. Does this January change mean I am losing these channels forever? I am paid up until...

    G1 Signal problem

    Perhaps this should be a new thread but since it's related to the G1, I am posting it here. My G1 signal has improved but now I am noticing a problem with the program guide. The guide downloads but not the descriptions. All movies or items say: "Program information not available." I tried...

    G1 Signal problem

    I think I may have my dish tweaked a bit. We had heavy winds here recently too. I wanted to mention that with my W5 subsription, my G1 HBO's are turned back on too. It may be temporary but for now, I am getting all the HBO's there are. And, my G1 is working better. Glad I switched.

    G1 Signal problem

    I just thought I would mention that I switched my subscription to the W5 (HBO) and my problems are solved. It's the first time I have watched HBO trouble free since I got C-Band on April 2nd. It's a good thing because my signal is still down 15% on the G1 so it looks like that problem is here to...

    G1 Signal problem

    HBO G1 Signal Problem I thought I would post an update. I called SkyVision and they said they have received numerous complaints about the G1. As of now, they are unsure of what is causing the problem. The signal is fine at S.V. headquarters and only some of their customers are not working...
