    SDR C/Ku Sniffing?

    Looking at the manual for my Chaparral CR-10 c/ku band receiver that I mainly use as a dish mover for my FTA receiver, I notice that it has separate outputs for Base Band and Data. The BaseBand output has settings for Deemphasized, Emphasized, Unclamped and Clamped. There is also a terrestrial...

    SDR C/Ku Sniffing?

    Can you explain how you connect your SDR to the sat antenna? I have a well functioning 10 foot dish with a Pansat FTA receiver that has a loop out connection. Using a DC block, can I run a feedline from there to the SDR (an Airspy R2) to look at the sat signals?

    Need help reconfiguring my BUD/FTA system

    Thanks Thanks for confirming what I thought. System seems to be working well but from some of the skew settings required, it looks like I may need to replace either the servo motor or the LNB(s) or both shortly.

    Need help reconfiguring my BUD/FTA system

    Hi, I recently got a Pansat 9500HDX and would like to reconfigure my system. I have a 7 foot BUD with Chaparral Corotor II. The c and ku leads go to a Chaparral V/H 1-Switch and then to a Chaparral CR-10 IRD which is the dish mover and also the polarotor control. I had a DRS-905 sidecar in the...

    Channel editor for Sonicview 360 Premier?

    Now that I resusitated my Sonicview 360 Premier, I'd like to know if there's a channel editor I can use with it. I installed the svlan_28.rom because the factory software kept giving me "update to newest software" messages.

    Is my Sonicview 360 Premier dead?

    SUCCESS!! The unit is up and running again. I downloaded the factory rom file from Sonicview USA again to be sure I had an uncorrupted file, transferred it to the 360 and this time it worked. BTW, the instructions on the Downloader program and on the Sonicview support page are incorrect - the...

    Is my Sonicview 360 Premier dead?

    Please explain "factory default reset." Is that turning the rocker switch on the rear panel off for a minute and then putting it back on? If so, yes I did. I also have a rom file from Sonicview "SV_360Premier_New_Factory.rom" which is newer than the SV360 Premier_V0119P clean syst files...

    Is my Sonicview 360 Premier dead?

    The files were clearly marked for the 360. Since the problem started with the disappearance of video and audio, I'm wondering if there's something other than software wrong.

    Is my Sonicview 360 Premier dead?

    I just tried it and it changed the front panel display from "12:01" to "0000." I hit the menu button and then "OK" and now have "SCAN" on the display. I'll let it stay on that in hopes that it is doing something. I'm using the composite connection to the TV and still no video.

    Is my Sonicview 360 Premier dead?

    In that case, the downloads are going suspiciously quickly. The first file: 360 Premier SAT FILE 06-02-08 takes only a minute or two. The next one: SV360 Premier_V0119P clean syst files 06-02-08.rom takes a bit longer. After it loads, front display shows "FL" and there is a countdown from 20...

    Is my Sonicview 360 Premier dead?

    I tried reloading the cleaner file several times and now, when I reboot (it does not do this automatically as the Downloader v1.1 program says it will) I get "Menu" on the front panel and if I hit OK, "scan" pops up. Nothing else happens and still no video. Am I making progress or just spinning...

    Is my Sonicview 360 Premier dead?

    I probably will get rid of it but until I decide what to replace it with, I thought I'd see if I could get it going again. I found a null modem cable and managed to download the factory reset rom file. Now the front panel says "Inst" which I assume means "installing" but it's been like that for...

    Is my Sonicview 360 Premier dead?

    First indication of a problem was the disappearance of video and audio. Checked the connections (S-video and Spdif), tried alternate connections, tried disconnecting and reconnecting the unit. Only indication of life was front panel showed a channel number but I was unable to change the channel...
