I am getting more and more RG6 runs to different rooms or different dishes and OTA antennas. I get to a point that I'd better label the cables otherwise very easily get confused with which one goes where. All I think of is to put a label at each end of an RG6 with a letter (A - Z). Just...

I could not get the AC-3 pass thru work from my Mercury II. I connected the optical cable from Mercury II to my Denon receiver which has built-in DD decoder. I tuned to RetroJam channel and no sound from the Denon receiver. I disconnected the optical cable from Merc II and connected it to my LCD...

Just wondering anyone has insight on what games I can get from G10R this 2008 season? I know Buffalo's RTN 11 carries quite a lot of Indians, Yankees and Mets games and they have a nice web page to show the schedule. But how about other equity broadcast channels?

I finally got my motor working yesterday after initial wrong setting of dish elevation. Pretty exiting experience to see it move and lock on signals. I have a couple of questions. 1. Many channels on G10R have DD or AC3 audio. My receiver is Mercury II. I connected the SPDIF optical out to my...

I tried to install sg-2100 motor with the 3abn dish and mercury II receiver. This is the first time to install motor but to my disappointment I could not tune to any satellite. Then I removed the motor and make sure the rest of equipment and site is ok. That is positive. I can easily get 123W...

I am in the process of installing Digipower SG-2100 with the 3ABN 90cm dish. According to the instruction sheet coming with the motor, it says the dish elevation angle should be 40 - declination angle. But Sadoun's tech support page says 30 - declination angle for SG-2100. Is Sadoun mistake on...

I have winegard 76 cm right now and looking for a second dish. People are saying winegard 76 is the best for its size and it even outperforms other 80cm dishes. How does it compare to Fortec Star 90cm dishes? I certainly like winegard's size and price if the performance is not much worse than...

Mercury II has two modes of clock, GMT on or off. If I turn GMT on and set my time zone, it is 20 minutes ahead. If I turn GMT off and just set the clock like any stand alone digital clock, it is very inaccurate. It runs slower and it is about 5 minutes behind in just 12 hours. Has anyone with a...

I just got the Mercury II from the $85 deal and plan to install a motor to my dish using USALS. I am quite happy with Mercury II but have question about the loop out feature. I plan to connect Mercury II to the motor and dish and its loopout to my old FTA receiver. Should I turn off the DC power...

My longitude is 121.87. Can I use Galaxy 10R at 123 as the true south bird to install a motor? There is no bird at 122 and 121 does not have any clear KU channels according to lyngsat. If I don't have a true south sat, is it still possible to install a DisEqC 1.2 motor with my existing DisEqc...

I have been receiving Chinese TV CCTV from Galaxy 3c reliably for over a year. I lost the signal completely yesterday. Anyone able to receive CCTV today? Frequency 11780H. I'd like to make sure it is my problem before get on the roof to debug it. Thanks.

I am new to this FTA satellite and try to install 30' dish for galaxy 13 Chinese programs. When I tried to configure CCTV IR2000 receiver last night, it asked for LNB type and voltage. The choices of types are Universal, 4000, 11750 etc. (The numbers are not exact). What is LNB type and how do...
