Hi Guys. I have HughesNet for Internet. So, I restrict video downloads to the early morning hours. Watched the Alaskan Daily pilot and may watch more. Question is, when I download in the morning (higher data cap limits) it goes onto my DVR as available for x amount of days. Now, when I go...

Yeah, been there. Already get some with dish but, maybe I can drop some of them if I can get for free :cool:

I'll keep that in mind. Appreciate the info. Just want to jump back in as cheap as possible to see if I want to expand. Guess I need to look for a dig. receiver without investing a fortune. Then take it from there. Thanks

That's what I meant. If I got a digital receiver, my analogue would be a suitable mover?

My current receiver is analogue. A Innovation 450i. I wonder if that would communicate with some digital.

I see the AMiko or Edison doesn't seem to have a place to connect the mover wires from the actuator. How would that work? Are there models that also do that?

Mine is an old analog receiver from 25 years ago. Looking to get a digital. Didn't want to put much more $$ into this until I see what's available. Already paying a million a month to Dish Net. I'm looking for my best option under $100.

I too have resurrected after 25 years. You must have had to purchase a digital receiver since then to get something now. What model did you get? Like it?

With so many HD receivers available in the $60 range, how would one choose a model?

That really helps. I need to move my actuator mount. Thanks

Wow, things have changed

Have satellites shifted that much in the past 20 years? Following the online satellite locator, the farthest West I can go before my original limit is 125 deg. West. To reach 131 W I would have to re-attach my actuator to allow more westerly movement.. Does that make any sense?

Thanks. Tried it. Still find nothing. Dish location could be way off these days. Guess I should look into a digital receiver if I want to pursue this.

Well, I took the wires out of the back, cut/stripped and reinstalled. I now have actuator control. As I flipped through all my old sat listings I see nothing is available. Just snow. I'm guessing there are no more analog sats and the only way to receive is to buy a digital receiver??

a couple pages were stuck together and guess what...reset procedures. I'll get to that today and see what happens.

I did look for some sort of factory reset in the manual and couldn't find it.

I also checked continuity between mover wires and the box. All good.

East West limits are set and show location #'s on screen. Just that present location is showing ****. I suspect it shuts down because it doesn't have a reference of where it currently is.???

There's a disc with a contact on it with a sensor next to it. I connected a vom to the 2 wires and it was showing a spike every revolution.

Hi all Have a 1990 , 3 meter C-band with a Mini Mag LNB on a Chapparel horn and a GI Innovation 450 i Receiver/Mover. After 20 years of non-op. I was in the mood to invoke life. All works but, when I try to move the dish it runs for 2 secs and says Actuator Error, Check wiring. I did that...

Satellite world sure has changed since my last analog involvement back in the late 90's. Is there a place I can view what would be available to receive?

A little pricey for this country boy only in the respect that I'm not sure at this point of my research how beneficial it would be for my entertainment experiences. I currently have DISH...of course. But, I'm partial to old school.

Thanks for the welcome. I screwed up. Went up there to look and realized It's an LNB. I don't remember changing it but then, I got the system in 1988. A lot of water passed under this bridge since then.

Thanks. These type projects are cool. The LNB I have in a box has both pins inside so I'm guessing it's a LNBF?

Hi All New to forum and with being pandemic sort of homebound, I'm regaining my interest in my old fiberglass C-Band 10ft satellite dish. It's a Curtis Mathis KSX300 with LNA and Feedhorn. Also still have the original G.I. Innovation 450i Receiver. I know analog is pretty much dead and...
