    My first FTA system was probably a little different than most since I started in 1991 in Germany with a motor powered 1 meter prime focus with two lnb's, one for vertical and one for horizontal. It served me well. The main selling point at the time was the ability to get the British FTA...

    Springtime for me will be mud time since the ground is just now thawing out and causing a mess. But it sure beats these ridiculously cold months of snow and ice.

    Satellite Orbits?

    Alaskan Sat Dishes Here's a picture of two functioning satellite dishes at Eileson AFB near Fairbanks. I took this picture in July 2006. It is a good representation of how dishes must be point that far north.

    We celebrate Christmas the European way with a family meal on Christmas Eve, followed by an evening together and presents are opened before going to bed. My wife and I began a family tradition of o a special meal of beef tenderloin which is quite expensive and reserved for this occasion. After...

    I remember that I had an infatuation with black leather motorcycle jackets and was constantly telling my parents that I wanted one for Christmas. Shortly before Christmas one year I found one in a closet that my parents had bought, obviously as a Christmas present for me. I tried it on and it...

    Contest: What would you do... 4:2:2?

    Sign me up for 4:2:2 Okay, here is my entry. After spending forty years with the US government (20 active military, 20 civil service), and about half of that overseas, I retired and hit the road as a full time RVer. My dishes reflect some of these travels. Right now I am temporarily tied down...

    GEOSATpro Date acquisition by MICROHD

    But it was completely disconnected from all power.

    GEOSATpro Date acquisition by MICROHD

    I was recently on the road for a week and my MICROHD was disconnected from everything for seven days. When I hooked it back up, my first step was to set the date and time. I was shocked to see that the date was correct! How did that happen? GMT was set to OFF so where did it get the date?

    GEOSATpro Reboot issue solved?

    In another thread is was stated: "There is no risk of reboot looping if you use the latest firmware and never load a user database file that was created on old firmware (before version .13). Remover the power source for a few moments after loading any files to the micro to clear any legacy...

    CBS Feeds On Galaxy 19

    I understood that if a satellite was deleted without first removing the associated channels, it would cause a reboot loop. Has this been fixed?

    Cubavision Movie Schedule

    Some time back I recall someone posting a movie schedule for Cuba TV on 30°. Does anyone have a clue about current movie scheduling?

    GEOSATpro Show and Tell

    Several people have shown/described how and what they use to align their dishes. I have chosen to take everything to the source (the dish). I bought a sealed lead acid 12V battery, put it in a lunch bag with the wiring, then took my little 7" TV w/ AV input and my MicroHD to the dish. I watch...

    Contest: Enter to Win a GEOSATpro microHD STB and SL1PLL LNBF - Ends 5/31/2013 Midnight PDT

    Being one of eight children, we didn't have any money for vacations. All I can remember about summers is going to the river that ran through town in KY and fished. Rarely caught much. Too poor to buy fishing equipment so we used a tree limb, a piece of string and a hook. I'll tell you how...

    Satellite Dish Complaint - OTARD Response Letter

    As a person who used to live and work for the government in northern VA, I understand your situation. Hopefully an HOA is not involved. If so, you can expect all sorts of retaliation, i.e., planting the wrong type of flowers, grass too short or too long, wrong color or type of mailbox (not...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    Thank you very much! http://www.satelliteguys.us/images/icons/icon11.png I have no intention of ever connecting that drive again! I have a 500GB Maxtor with external power supply that has been designated as the MicroHD drive. What is really strange is that it would recognize a Fuji 16GB...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    I had tried another drive that has a second cable that is powered through a USB port which I powered with an external USB Hub. l But now I have obtained a external powered cable (see pic) and tried several different drives. None of them will connect, but the 16GB card will!

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    This gets weirder all the time. The MicroHD recognizes and reads a 16GB Fuji microSD card inserted in an adapter but it will not recognize any other drive. I have tried a powered USB port and got nothing. I then tried an external powered Maxtor 500GB drive and it is also not seen by the...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    Yes, but this is not a GoFlex Desk model. It is a Free Agent Go that is advertised and sold as a portable device with only a single cable supplied. As I stated in a PM, I believe you to be an honest person and you are not out to screw me. If anyone is at fault it is Seagate for not supplying...

    GEOSATpro USB has stopped functioning

    As I stated in post #6 "The cord being used is the cord supplied with the drive at time of purchase." The drive did NOT come with a pigtail. I have two of the drives that I purchased at the same time in late 2010. They both have short gray cables with a USB mini plug. I will PM the S/N to you.
