Well Exede wont talk to me without a signed contract.. I have a 150 foot run. Is the installer gonna want a ground wire (messenger) on the cable? The dish will be installed on an existing pole.. I'm wondering if the pole could be grounded with a ground rod. Any suggestions on brand of RG6 I...

Does anyone know which satellite that Exede pulls its signal from? Does anyone know what size base you need for them to mount the dish? Thanks for any help.. The seller doesn't know. Gray1

Got another dish yesterday from a Quicktrip. It was a dumpster save. It measures 38 3/4 and is round. Anyone wanna guess what it is? I think its a .98 Prodelin but not sure. The mount measures 2 1/2 which is bad since all I got here are all 2 3/8. Think I could make it work? Got 8 lock down...

Anyone tried this? Im using an 89E Primestar right now for 125W but I got "this idea". I'm wondering how the PBS stations are coming in? Thanks

A short story: Years back I had Dish come out and install a system. The installer could not find a good LOS. He explained I would have to dig and bury a cable to a 1 5/8 pole. The installer was very helpful. He showed me where to put the pole and recommended a good RG6 cable. I did this and...

Ok, I got my big dish working. I am on 139 west with the radio stations. Is fox supposed to have audio? I can't seem to get any. Openbox S9, 7 1/2 Perfect 10. Using RCA audio jacks. Thanks Gray

I have an Openbox S9 that about three months ago started giving me trouble. I have jumpered the polyfuse and that has cured the LNB’s dropping out. However the picture still freezes up. I can change channels and it will play for a few seconds then it also freezes up. I have done a master reset...

I am having an odd problem with an Openbox S9. I have four dishes connected to the S9 with a DiSEqC switch. The receiver simply quits receiving a signal on all satellite and you get a "no signal". After you change channels with the remote a while it all comes back for a few minutes then it...

If I buy a UHF,VHF High antenna, should I be able to get FM Radio from it? I guess what I am trying to find out if 87.5 Mhz to 108.0 Mhz falls in the High VHF band or the Low VHF band? Thanks

Is Openbox S9 capable of DVB-S2 (8PSK)? I can't get a peep out of the Luken Mux on 137W. Can get the Alaskan channels fine. Thanks

Are these feeds still up on 137 West? I cant seem to find them. Thanks

I am a new owner of a S9 Openbox with a couple of questions. LPB1, LPB2, and LPB hd have a low SQ. It drops down to 10. TP 11070/H/12475. Is this "normal"? SQ on all other transponders are above 60. Im not sure which way to go with this. Also the sound on Montana PBS is not very good...

Looking to buy a new TV antenna. Here is my TVfool data http://members.localnet.com/~pcguy/allen.png I am in a deep fringe area. I have some trees. My goal is to get St. Louis TV and FM radio stations. They are in a northerly direction from me. Namely KDNL, KPLR, KETC, KTVI, and another...

At the suggestion of a fellow member, I am posting my latest project. This dish was mounted low to the ground. Take note: Whenever I acquire a dish mounted low to the ground, there is almost always some type of damage. In this case I believe it to be where a lawnmower was ran into it several...

I have never seen a Primestar metal dish. It is 39'' tall and 36'' wide. Does that make this a 1 meter dish? There are no numbers on the dish but on the mount there is MSI/Eagle and an eagle logo. (Pic is not too good). Can someone help me identify this dish and tell me who its made by? Is it...

Is this channel up and running now? I cant seem to find it. I got all the Ion channels but this one eludes me. Im an trying 3915 H 4410. I cant seem to get any signal on Coolsat 5000. Ion channels are about 70 percent on a 7 1/2 dish. Im on 103w. thanks

OK I give up. How do i get History and Biography on AMC 4. Is it KU or C band? Im on LyngSat and cant make heads or tails of it. Thanks

I acquired two of these receivers from a yard sale. Only one had a remote though. They were owned by a one legged guy. I done a factory reset and everything seems to have gone back to the original software. Anybody have any experience with this receiver. It seems to do blind scan pretty well. I...

I got a DSR922 that moves my 7 1/2 foot dish. I want to hook up this Coolsat 5000. I have seen some diagrams on DMSI site. They split the signal with a 2.3 ghz splitter. The diagrams show a C and a KU coax. I dont have a Ku coax. Could I just split the C-band cable to the Coolsat and receive...
