Well, we have the same problem here in the Ozarks too. It's one of our favs, and I'm not even getting MeTV, except for our local OTA channels are good, we aren't getting Justice, Laff etc. Not getting a few of the usuals.. Lyngsat still has the same info, last I looked awhile back, but I'm...

Actually, Tonight when we got home, I thought I would check things out, and on 99W, the MeTV TP that I changed to 3723H8703 change seemed to be the answer to the problem. I still don't understand about tweeking the numbers, and the rule of thumb for that type of tuning, but it is working now...

I've tried everything I know, and I just cannot get MeTV on anything. Either 99W or 101W, I cannot get MeTV to work. If I have it on frequency, it will jump in and out for just a second, and then drop back out. I cannot get any of the MeTV freqs. to work on either Sat. But I'm getting Hero's and...

It's an Android app called Sat Finder Lite. Hint.. Mount your device on a tripod, or secure swivel to get a nice even flow of images. You will also need to hold the unit very very still to keep the cursor on the arc as the photo is snapped. You'll see what I mean. It's just a thing, not an...

Sorry Brian, I missed your post, but yeah, they are like you are talking about, and yes, I think I was doing that as well. I had a boat load of stuff, so much, it got full, so tried to go to service app to clean everything, but the system was so goobered with stuff, so I deleted all the crap...

Is it more user friendly than the MiniHD SE? Don't get me wrong, I'm loving it, but could have had the "Great features" like Automatic Setup, which doesn't work for us, and NO Programming info/ scheduling, as per my wife. I just wish more was for US, and not just have to deal with...

When I used the latest update, my receiver shut down and restarted, and wouldn't act right. When I used the 2010 version, it is acting better, but haven't done anything else with it. I have been getting the AMIKO MiniHD SE going lately. But I would like to load the TP List on the Viewsat, but it...

This might be a dumb question, but what would be the ramifications of Heat Tape (AC powered), like we rap around the water pipes? It would keep the actuator warm, and the grease and/or moisture would stay above freezing. But any electrical RF or induction factors involved, I don't know enough...

That is a good idea! I have set my dish that way too. No use in moving the dish any farther than it's work area right? I have to wonder sometimes when I see instructions where they will say to watch your dish as it's moving to make sure it doesn't come in contact with anything... I can't imagine...

I don't recall getting any word about the files I put up for ya. Did any of those help you? I did one, and it opened up more options in the rcvr., and even allows for changing key codes. HMMM? Anyway, I'll have to see where that post was, and see if I did it right. I'm still new here! I have the...

[one thQUOTE="FaT Air, post: 3700582, member: 151853"]Quick, and dirty, way of reducing your focal length. Not by much, only a very little.We require pictures of the finished work (we LOVE pictures) Angles, and where to measure them. Take a look at a page I put on the web...

It is one that apparently SkyVision had years ago. CKD-8.5. Can you see what type of mount it is. From the directions in the documentation, It said that the mount can be a Polar Mount, or a H-H mount, but I've also heard "Modified Polar Mount" also, but I'm not that versed in these yet, so I'm...

Yes, You are correct! I had to look again, and got confused. It's the Mini HD SE. So many designators. I have a funny story to share with everyone later... You will all get a kick out of this. It is funny now, but... it sure wasn't when it happened LOL Later! Hint: Ask KE4EST.

Just for grins, I have a Droid Maxx too. That'll be a good thing I hope.

I need to check with him to make sure, I think it is the HD SE? I'm a little fuzzy on the exact model, but yeah, I saw the videos on it, and it looks so much nicer than this ViewSat Ultra-lite, and much more versital. More features(Primarily upgrades), but as far as the learning curve, bring it...

OK, Here are the files that I found, but I just haven't tried em yet. I'm going to regroup, and get an AMIKO A3 HDSE from KE4EST' s ebay store for $90, and we're going to invest in a Titanium ASC1 as well . With this unit built for the latest system requirements, like DVB-S2 decoding etc., with...

Hey, I thought of something! My wife likes to smack things when they don't SEEM to be working properly. So this unit can be put away in a safe place, and avoid any unnecessary abuse. All she will see is the RF unit, and thats not big enough to SMACK, so I think we'll be good. She knows it's not...

And ya know, that sux getting old crap like that when they make you think your good to go! But I know they aren't gonna say, Hey, we have a bunch of these old rcvr's we need to unload, cause these things are old as it is, and we don't want to get stuck with them. lol I know, but it sux more...

I'm hearing ya. I don't see anything past 2010, but you just basically answered my next question regarding the newer formats in programming ie.DVB-S2. So the ability to change from S to S2 is not a firmware situation, but different components on the PCB alltogether... OK! I was wondering about...

Wow, I'm basically in the same situation. I had bought mine from Amazon, but it was SATPRO.TV's web store that has a 3rd party thing, and got a Ku Dish-Rcvr-Meter-Coax package for something like a total $170 including the shipping due to the dish weight and all that, but I noticed that there...

Well, but not all functions are always needed, so not knowing how to use some of them is only due to lack of use... "Hang on, It's been awhile since I used this thing, I need to find the instructions... Now lets see... Where did I put them... Honey.......

I haven't got a chance to finish my testing, as I've had some other stuff I've been needing to get done, but I'm going to get to it ASAP. I'll keep ya posted. I sure wish I had all of the proper equipment! Thanks again!

I probably should have scanned it for ya instead...

This picture wasn't the greatest picture. It's hard to take a good picture of a circuit board, as there is too much glare to see solder bridges and whatnot!

Well, unfortunately when I heated the legs on the relay, it layed down flat, so it appears there were no bent legs, but either wasn't seated properly when the board was populated, or it popped up when it went through the wave soldering process. (I assume they do it that way). I've seen parts pop...
