    Digital Breakup on 101 C Band

    I'm running a 7.5 dish also and do experience the same digital problems so I won't address that, enough people have chimed in about that. I will address the momentary freezing, go into your receiver audio settings and switch the audio setting to bitstream. I had this same problem on Anik and by...

    A real head scratchier

    Hi Thanks for all the input. I've taken the 6 foot down and gone back to the 7.5 foot. The reason I extended the pole and went with the 6 foot solid because my pending garage was going to block the dish. I am going to have to re-think this whole thing. I have a 12 foot dish sitting in the...

    A real head scratchier

    Hi Guys I took down my 8 foot dish and put an extension on the pole and put up a 6 foot solid dish. I am now working about 15 feet above the ground which makes adjustments a challenge. Here is my problem: The pole is level all around, I have set the declination and elevation and triple checked...

    Accessing Firmware

    Hi I recently purchased a Manhatten RS 1933 receiver. I dumped the firmware to a usb and found it was dated 2008, upon accessing the receiver information it say the firmware is version 3.7 dated january 2011. I don't think this is right because I have no disequ 1.2, no limits, no usals and the...

    Wrong Firmware Openbox

    Thanks for the information Jorgek. I have a serial cable and both ends have a female adapter. I'm assuming this is the cable you are referring to. I to will have to get an adapter. Once I obtain the proper connector and find the firmware patch how do I go about doing this. Thanks

    Wrong Firmware Openbox

    Hi I have two s9 open box receivers and one s10. The one s9 stopped working and I was installing the second s9. I wanted to put the same firmware on this unit however I mixed up the firmware and put the s10 firmware on the s9. Yes you guessed it it won't work. Is there any way to fix this or...

    Mesh and solid dishes!

    Others will argue but my experience shows a 6 foot solid has the same signal as 8 foot mesh, and 8 foot solid equals 10 foot mesh, and 10 foot solid equals a 12 foot mesh. I've connected a couple of C/Ku on a single dish and found the C band suffers considerably. I wouldn't recommend it. One...

    Openbox S16

    Thanks for the information but I don't know how to do what your telling me. I know how to dump the firmware to a usb flash drive and how to upload it to the receiver but that's about it, and I don't know where to find S16 ALI Editor.

    New Dish Maybe

    I haven't had much luck setting up 2 lnbf side by side on my 7.5 dish. One for C band and the other for 4DTV so I am looking at buying a 6 footer for 4DTV. The question is, the 6 foot dish I'm looking at only has an adjustment for elevation ( this is a prime focal dish) and nothing for...

    DSR410 4DTV

    There probably is however I have an LNBF so I can't use that option and I don't have cabling out at the dish for skew adjustment. I was just wondering if anyone has run into this or has done the same thing. I will probably buy another LNBF and try to mount it below the first. If that doesn't...

    DSR410 4DTV

    I recently acquired a DSR410 to subscribe for 4DTV. I have an 7.5 foot mesh dish and in order to get a green light on channel 204 I have to almost reverse the polarity on my LNBF. Once this is done then the rest of C Band is gone. I was wondering if I bought another LNBF and mounted directly...

    Dish Moving

    What receiver are you using now. I have an openbox S9 and I will receive a dsr410 receiver shortly. What I'me planning on doing is using the openbox to power my g box and use the loop out on the openbox to power the dsr410. I'll run RCA cables from the 410 to my TV. Since the openbox is already...

    Galaxy 19 - 97.0W

    There are no factory files for this receiver, it was make for a different purpose which won't be discussed here. The blind scan on this receiver at least on mine was none existant. You can't rename a satellite, however you can enter a new one, but I can't remember how you do that and I no longer...

    4Dtv

    I may be a bit late getting into 4DTV but from what I.ve seen they are still offering programming and the prices for the complete package is about 1/3 the cost of what it would cost me to go to the small dish.I live in Canada and monopolies limit choices, and the choices you have are very...

    4Dtv

    I have been looking at getting into 4Dtv but I don't want to buy a full blown receiver. I have been looking at the Motorola DSR905 sidecar. Orbits have them for 179.00. My current system is an 8 foot dish with an open box S9 receiver and von weis actuator. From what I have found out I can hook...

    Setting up an old dish in a new location

    I just moved from Ontario to Alberta and brought along my 8 foot C Band dish. I am in the process of installing it but I have run into a small snag. I set my elevation and was trying to set my declination but ran out of bolt. Now my elevation bolt is longer than the declination bolt so before I...
