    Is CBC Radio gone??

    Maybe it is just me, but a couple of weeks ago I hadno problem getting CBC Radio - Radio2 T is my fav. But today - nothing, and a scan of NImiq 1 gives a few radio stations, but not the CBC feeds that have been FTA since C-Band days. Any thoughts?? Craig

    Amazonas problem

    No problem finding Amazonas at 61.0 degrees. Very strong signal on 11972 V. At first it worked fine, but now if I go to that bird I get a strong signal (if aiming) or a good picture (if viewing) for only 3-4 seconds, at which point the signal level drops way down and the quality goes to zero...

    Is 266 not here because of hardware??

    Just a thought. We were supposed to have 266 by now. I can understand that the date may slip, but I note that there has been NO anticipatory discussion about this release since 265. But there has been some mention of a hardware problem. Perhaps the 266 upgrade won't work without a hardware...

    811/265 Remote problem.

    I had my remote programmed to use address 2 with the 811. Comes the download -- no response to the remote. Seems there is a software problem that now prevents the 811 from changing remote addresses :( My CSR checked it out and they admit that this is a new problem - which should be...

    811 Rear Panel Inputs Poor Quality

    Finally got to looking at some programs from my FTA sat receiver hooked up thru the 811's rear panel inputs. Grainy, low res picture (I am used to S-video from that unit). Also some evidence of ac interference (I think) with a dark area moving sequentially across the screen. The Pansat Mpeg...

    811 Losing birds, etc.

    My second 811 has a few ongoing problems. First, it seems as tho I need to do a "check switch" at least once a day to keep things operating. For example, when I got up this morning the receiver only showed a signal from 119 degrees - 110 and 121 were missing. A "check switch" restored the...

    811 Digital Remapping problem

    My 811 (replacement) is working well, but the digital OTA has its own little problems. We have 3 carriers out there. 2 of these each have a subchannel, the third has three. Running a scan of the digital OTA finds them all, and remaps them to the proper designations with correct channel names...

    Dish 811 HUM???

    Had my 811 installed a few days ago. Generally works pretty well, tho I am growing a bit tired of all the "Check Switch" procedures. Anyhow, the receiver is located about 10" below my Panasonic CT36HX41. When it is plugged in to the power source, the 811 introduces a noticable amount of 60hz...
