    Improving a WISP signal

    I'm moving out to the country and I just found out that I'm 10 miles away from a WISP tower. There is a hill between me and the tower and I was just wondering could I improve the signal by using a KU band dish and pointing it in the direction of the WISP tower and placing the receiving...

    PBS channels on AMC 3 audio problems using Viewsat Extreme

    Hi All, I don't get any sound on any of the channels on 12180 V. I'm only using the RCA connecters to my TV. (Video, Left, Right). I get good sound on "Tip TV", and the "Patiant Channel" so I'm thinking maybe I need a secondary audio PID for the PBS channels. I can't for the live...

    Working for Dish or DTV

    7 years ago I was part owner of a computer business that was also a DTV retailer. The business didn't last too long but that's another story. I'm thinking about becoming a retailer again. I'm in a location where I could create a nice showroom for selling dish or DTV. I have another...

    150CM offset dish with a HH120 ?

    I have an invacom lnbf that works great. Right now it is on my primestar dish that I scrounged up. When I first bought my dish it arrived a little bent. Also the arm that sticks out in the front doesn't seem exactly in the right place. It has never worked well. That's why I think I just...

    Thanks for the reply. I'm in upstate NY and I have a nice flat roof. Right now I have a 90cm dish that is still connected to a sm3d12 HH motor that I fried by trying to send DISEqC commands to it using my skyStar2 PC card. My 90cm will barely bring in AMC3 PBS channels so I wanted to get...

    150CM offset dish with a HH120 ?

    Hello all, I'm thinking of installing a 150cm offset dish and hooking it up to a HH120 motor. The dish is at ba-sat.com. Are they a good company to deal with? The dish does not look like it weighs that much so I'm thinking the HH120 will be fine. Any thoughts? Rick
