Is there anything still FTA on any of the Circular Ku-band satellites (North America)? I'm thinking about streamlining my setup and getting rid of my excess satellite parts (LNBFs, switches, etc), but didn't know if there was any reason to keep any Circular Ku-band LNBFs. THANKS!

I have a GEOSATpro-DSR-R100b that will not power on. It just blinks the red LED on the display. No video on the TV/Monitor, but a clicking sound. Thinking it may be the power supply. Anyone know anything about this type of issue?

Anyone know if there was ever a firmware update to remove the preset Globestar World TV/Radio channels from the receiver? It won't let me delete them. Gives me a not allowed message. I picked it up cheap from a thrift store, still had the access card, but of course that's useless since they...

I can't remember how to log into the receiver from Windows and be able to access my recordings remotely. Can someone help me with the settings?

Revisiting an old project. I have a Wave Frontier Toroidal T-90 multi-LNB dish that someone generously gave me a few years ago (from another member on here), and was experimenting with, but I had to take it down and put away during a hurricane warning and has been stuck in my storage shed for...

Is it possible to install or convert a satellites.xml file from satellites.xml creator to update the satellites and transponders on the GEOSATpro HDVR3500? Also noticed a lot of the pre-installed IPTV links no longer work as well, and the availability to delete the unwanted or dead links would...

Anyone know where I can find the latest firmware for the Koqit receivers? I tried asking several sellers on eBay, but they won't answer. I know there is one newer that what I have on the boxes I purchased a couple years ago, but cant seem to find it anywhere. The main thing I like about the new...

OK, here's a solid 8 footer that I literally dragged out of a small pond. I don't know who made it, but it looks like it's fiberglass. The bracket on the back was corroded beyond use, so I am going to have to cut it off and make my own. But it also has 2 areas that are bulged, so I may need to...

Can this receiver still be activated? Sony Direct TV Plus Digital Satellite Receiver SAT-B55. If not, will it still be able to display the demo/info channels? Or can I still use the signal meter for setting up dishes? THANKS!

Hi SatelliteGuys, Thought I'd share a "fun" project I just completed. I repaired a Titanium Satellite CK1-S C/ku band LNBF that was damaged because of a bad terminal. The C-band side terminal was die-cast and very thin, which broke off easily. I was about to toss it out, but decided to try...

Well, last night I updated all my Apple devices. Mac Mini - macOS Sierra 10.12.4 iPhone 5s - iOS 10.3 iPad Mini 2 - iOS 10.3 Apple Watch - watchOS 3.2 AppleTV - tvOS 10.2 So far no issues on anything... I also installed Kodi on my AppleTV 4th Generation, which works great. It's like having 2...

Here we go... This is my current dish setup. It's a strange hodgepodge of mixed parts that came together quite nicely and now have nearly twice as many channels to watch. 1st up is an old unbranded BJU (Bob Jones University) home schooling dish with a HH90 motor and an Invacom Quad QPH-031...

I found a few multi C-band LNB holders and was wondering if anyone has tried one. I found several designs for dual and quad lnbs. I only found 1 on eBay, from China. Others I found doing a web search, but apparently none sold in the US???. Any thoughts? One description for the dual one says 10°...

I was reading an old thread about Toroidal dishes. There was an error about them requiring special LNBFs, but that's only partially true, you only need reversed polarity LNBFs for circular satellites, linear LNBFs work just fine as they are. Mine is the larger T-90 model. They are a bit tricky...

Anyone have these, they are no longer available on Fortec's site, they are for the Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra: STB Editor 1.85 (June 17, 2004) Uploader - v.3.31 (August 08, 2004) Firmware - v.2.72 NTSC (May 19, 2005) Going to revive this receiver to donate to someone so they can get started in...

Is there any set top DVB-S/S2 receivers that DO NOT have any network, IPTV, WEB, Games, Apps, etc manufactured today? All I want is a basic DVB-S/S2 receiver that only does FTA satellite TV, nothing else. Or one that has both a DVB-S/S2 tuner and a ATSC/NTSC OTA (Over the air) tuner. Only want...

Hi, Does anyone know where I can find the files for the SatLink WS-6906 Digital Satellite Meter? This meter is basically a portable receiver with built in LCD screen. I'm looking for the software to program the satellites/transponders/channels, as well as current firmware and North American...

No longer will create the ZIP format, get 404 Not Found Gzipped still works...

Why is it that the local channels for my area on Dish are from Tampa, but the channels I pick up over-the-air are Naples, West Palm Beach, and Ft. Myers? I'd rather have these than Tampa. I can't even pick up the Tampa channels over-the-air. Also why isn't the sub-channels included as well? I...

Anyone know if these can be used for FTA? Scientific Atlanta PowerVu Commercial Satellite D9223 I was offered a pair of these, but didn't want to get them if I can't use them.

Is it possible to import the downloadable sat guys list into MediaBox Editor Studio and the export to a udf file for the GEOSATpro Micro HD?

Hi, does anyone know which model triple LNBs will work with this receiver? I'd like to switch it to a triple LNB, but I don't know which one is compatible or what additional hardware I need to switch it from a single LNB setup. Thanks!

I'm looking for the last factory updates for the Viewsat Ultra Lite, as well as a PC program that will allow me to edit the satellites, transponders, and channel list for this receiver (if possible). Searched but haven't had any luck locating any of the original files. Apparently they are no...

Hi, does anyone know if this can be used for FTA?

Anyone know how to TTL into a X2 Premium HD SE? Can I unplug the serial port from inside and connect a TTL cable? The cable to the serial port is only 3 wires. Also, anyone know the pin layout, software, and cable I would need if this is possible? THANKS!
