I have access to one of these dishes. It is just the reflector however. There is no mount or buttonhook. Has anyone had any experience with one of these? Does this model have good reception compared to a similar sized mesh dish? I would like to use it for Ku mostly. If anyone has any ideas to...

My 7.5' dish quit moving tonight. I can hear the dsr clicking when I try to move the dish but the counter isn't moving so upon further inspection I can see that the actuator is not moving. I checked with a voltmeter and I am not even getting 1v when I try to move the dish. Is it something simple...

I forget where but I know there was recently a channel that had a working epg. I am trying to test recording on a couple of receivers. Was it france24 or something? The ones on 97w are gone I think.

I have a line on a 10' channel master fiberglass dish. Would this dish have a Ku advantage over a 10' mesh? If I get it and set it up I would like something that gets all Ku feeds. These 3' dishes aren't cutting it for a lot of the weaker Ku feeds. I would like to get a dedicated Ku lnb setup...

Hi all I picked up a 10' mesh dish (unknown brand) and the deal was 50$ for the dish. The previous owner was never able to find the mount for it because it was stored for years. So he gave me my money back and let me keep the mesh sections (4 total) I could probably get the feedhorn supports if...

I have my DSR920 hooked up to the loop out of my Openbox S10. When I am watching channels on horizontal sit gets reception. However if I am tuning Vertical the DSR920 shuts the signal off on my S10. I am using a dmx242 lnb feeding it into a 4x1 diseqc switch. Is there an easy way to get past...

I am looking for some better firmware for my S10. I found S12 firmware that got rid of freezing channels on 83w. Has anyone used newer firmware for this that allows you to edit radio channels? This firmware I have: 11-12-10 also lets me record 2 channels in transponder while watching the 3rd. I...

I have my 7.5' SAMI dish setup with an actuator. The other morning it was pretty cold and I tried to move the dish to another satellite. My DSR922 rebooted. I believe this was from too much current. It is very cold and humid where I live because I am in a valley by a river. Is there anything I...

I picked up an Openbox S10 several months ago. The receiver constantly rebooted and would not drive the USALS motor. I picked up a new power supply for it and it still had the same problem. I then heard from Pixl that there is a chip on the power supply SD4841p that is seriously underrated for...

I pretty much have everything setup for receivers that I want besides a 4:2:2 DVB-S2 setup. I would like to be able to get these channels and am not interested in an AZ box. How do I go about this? Will any S2 pci card tune in 4:2:2? I would also like to use a program as well to control my...

I have seen this receiver pop up recently and it looks pretty good. Supposed to be Linux based Sunplus 1512 chipset. It advertises a 667mhz processor. Google maps, weather, Youtube, fashion TV. Linux dual boot.

I have been digging all afternoon to setup my 10' Winegard while there is still time. I am going to have the dish very close to the ground. I am down about 3 feet and the soil is very rocky. Will 3 feet suffice? The pole is about 3" OD. I have about 600lb of concrete and plenty of rocks.

I finally setup my dish on an actuator yesterday and was able to program in a few birds with my dsr 920. It was working fine last night on C3. I turn the receiver on tonight and it seems most of my satellites are missing. In the program satellites menu it only shows 9 satellites. N6, P9 W6 W9 S2...

I am setting up my 7.5' SAMI dish and it has a linear actuator mounted on the west side of the dish. I have a few basic questions. I pretty much figured out on my own how to set the elevation at true south, however the dish is at the west end of travel and I have no way to power it yet. My...

I am in the process of setting up my 1st motorized C-Band dish and need a source/ideas on what I can use to wire the actuator to the receiver. I have a few 2 foot sections of wire but I need like 50' or so. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Has anyone seen this receiver? It is comparable to the Amiko Alien2. Its got some pretty good features for a multimedia style box. Technical specifications: • Linux OS • Dual boot system • 2 x Conax CA • 600 MHz Processor • Spark Portal (VOD services,interactive TV services etc...) •...

I am curious as to whether a 22khz switch is supposed to work with these units. I tried this the other day and couldn't seem to get it to work. I put L on one port and C on the other and fed it into my diseqc 4-1. If I cannot set it up this way I will need to get an 8-1 switch which I would...

I picked up an older dvbs2 module for my pansat 9200 and I am unable to get any signal or quality with s2 transponders. Is there a special firmware I need? I am not sure if this board is bad or not. It is like it is disconnected. The instructions I got are vague.

Hi I have a digitrans dte-7100 and I have a few questions on how to find information for certain DC2 transponders. 1. I am trying to figure out how to find the VCT info. This requires knowing the number of the satellite you are on. I have no idea how to find out what satellite is what number...

I am looking at an Orbitron 8-10' dish and was curious as to whether anyone has one of these and can tell me how it comes apart. I am trying to figure out how small the pieces will break down into and what kind of tools I will need. I don't have access to the dish right now. I know my Winegard...

I am looking to set a pole in the ground and setup my C band dish. I have an actuator for it and a couple analog receivers and a fully mapped 4dtv receiver with all of the satellites. I need help in setting up the positioning of the dish with the receiver. I see there are positions available...

I have a 6 foot wsi dish that I got a while back and I don't have the instructions so I can mount it to the pole. Can anyone help with a manual or pictures so I can figure out the bracketry?

I have noticed in the past week that the forum bar above the posts where you can click to backup into another menu has not been working. Also some of the menus appear to be overlapping (the quick links menu is overlapping where it says forum. These links no longer work: <form...

I have a couple of stationary dishes that I would like to split off and feed to another receiver across the house. Is there a way to do this without a dual output LNB? I understand that you have to view the same polarity but this does not matter because one of my dishes only has 1 polarity...

I picked up a 6000 premium on Ebay. I am trying to setup 91w on it with my bandstacked lnb. The OCS setting in the menu shows 2 lnb frequencies on it. But when I try it it doesn't work right. Doesn't switch back and forth like it should. I am not sure if it is a firmware issue or if the box just...
