    D9479 QAM Modulator

    I've seen some posts about the D9476 and D9477 QAM Modulators on this forum in the past, so hopefully someone here has experience with a D9479 as well. I have a D9476 and have been successful in getting it to operate in standalone mode with a ASI from my commercial Motorola receivers. I'm...

    I have a dish that like the one in these two pictures (the one on the right in the first picture). Any idea of it's make/model? Anyone know if it's any good for Ku?

    Planting a 10ft FiberGlass Buttonhook.

    I've got a 10' fiberglass button hook I'd like to plant. The place that I got it from I think had it on a 3.5" pipe, and it was totally mangled When I took the dish down. I went to a scrap yard to find a pipe to mount it on today. Ended up with a 11' by 3.5" pipe and stuck the mount on it to...

    Map Master with a Motorola DSR-470

    I just saw this on ebay. Is it possible to load maps on the DSR-470 with the Map Master that we have? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Motorola-DSR-470-SRL-Map-/281097479470?pt=US_Satellite_TV_Receivers&hash=item4172b7252e

    GEOSATpro MicroHD is Cycling Standby / Reboot

    I've had my microHD for a couple of months and it's bitten the dust. I had just scanned in a bunch of stations on 118.8 west, but I was pointed at 121. I went into the menu and deleted each of the channels that it had added. It prompted me to save when I clicked exit and blank screen. I noticed...

    GEOSATpro MicroHD HDMI Not Working

    Hey, I've had my microhd for a couple months, and I went to hook it up to my larger TV (Dynex 55") and it said "Not Support" or no signal. I'm using a known good HDMI cable (stole it off of my roku). I also tried my second TV and it's not working there either, but I only get no signal. I've...

    Damaged DTE-7150 Repair Parts Information Needed

    Hey Everyone: Got a DTE-7150 and HDD-1000 purchased, but the DTE-7150 SD connector broke off and did some damage during shipping. So far I haven't been able to get anything from the HDD-1000 either (even with ION HD locked in on 103W). I think they may both be broken, but the only other unit I...

    4DTV X4 pointing help

    If you've kept track of my posts, I've recently installed my BUD. I was able to go from 91w-105w (looks like some branches are blocking my view closer to my true south). It looks like I've got this thing tracking the ARC pretty well, but I haven't had time to check. Once I got NASA scanned in on...

    Help a newb point and get a 4DTV dish setup with a Coolsat 6000.

    Hello there! Got my c-band dish planted in late october, but haven't had a chance to really play with it until now. I've got it pointed at Brasilsat (84 W), which is my TSS and can't get it to blindscan anything in on my coolsat 6000. It's a KTI 8' dish with a chapparal feedhorn, an Eagle Aspen...

    Breaking ground on a 4DTV install this saturday. Looking for advice on actuator wiring.

    Thanks for all of the input on my thread on my 920. Looks like I'll be breaking ground for my 4DTV install this Saturday. I need to figure out how to get the wiring to the satellite for the actuator. I guess I hadn't realized that 4dtv systems aren't activated via DishEqc like the little Ku...

    How to check a 920 to see if the old channel maps are still intact

    Looking for info about how to check a 920 to see if it can still pick up the free stuff on the other birds besides 105w. Just got a free(!) 920 and what looks like an 8' KTI dish today. Want to see what I can pick up once I get the dish put up.

    FTA Newbie starting with a Super Dish

    Hello I'm in Northwest Ohio, looking to get started in FTA. It looks like the EIRP values are pretty high in my neck of the woods and I'm hoping to get set up with a Mini BUD (C- and Ku-band) at some point. I have been thinking about making a trip down to Columbus to pick up the 120cm dish that...
