    Gained 7 new channels

    I wish they would have just put everything on UHF. All the pre-transition digital channels at my location were UHF, and worked fine. Two Toledo stations moved back to VHF and the signals are much worse. I have an Channel Master UHF/VHF antenna at 45 foot. Most stations are over 50 miles...

    Antennaweb vs. TV Fool

    I have been comparing the results from both over the past few months and TVFool seems to have a lot more information, and seems more accurate. Antennaweb only shows 4 stations that are available, when in reality we currently get 7 stations.

    I had trouble updating the FW on the Traxis 3500 using my laptop. I gave up and tried using a deskktop PC and it worked. I don't know what the issue is , but I just use the desktop PC for all firmware updates.

    C Band Qith Traxis 3500

    I also have mine connected to a C Band dish and it works well. And I agree with gabshere, I wish the Traxis would pass AC-3. I like the menus on the Traxis DBS4500 better than The DBS3500

    Goodbye to The Tube

    Wow. sad news indeed. During the weekends we had the channel running alot around here. It will be truly missed. :( :( It was one of my favorite channels available FTA. I guess I can put away the Traxis DBS4500 that I had slaved to the Traxis DBS3500 so I could hear the Tube in AC-3

    I need a replacement receiver - ideas?

    It would appear that DMSI is discontinuing the Traxis DBS 4500 and DBS 4550 as they are no longer listed on their product website. :( I too am hoping for an AC-3 audio fix for the DBS3500.. I would like to press it into service. The DBS4500 which I mainly use now passes AC-3 just fine.

    Traxis receivers?????

    If you are looking for a Traxis receiver that also passes AC-3 Dolby, then you would want the Traxis DBS4500. I have tried both the Traxis DBS3500 and DBS4550 and they do not pass AC-3 audio (dolby). The downside, the 4500 does not do blind scan. I do however like both the DBS3500 and 4550. I...
