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?

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...

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

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...

A few hours ago I tried to record a wild feed on 103 with my MicroHD. When I wanted to stop the recording, the button would not work, so I powered it off with the remote. When I powered it back on, it would not recognize the USB drove (Seagate Free Agent 500GB). I then removed all power, then...

I have noticed several sat receivers that claim to be HD capable but do not mention DVB-S2. So I am asking if someone can clarify this for me: a. Can a DVB-S receiver display a HD signal (i don't think so)? b. Are all HD FTA receivers capable of receiving DVB-S2? c. If a receiver is...

While looking at the TP listing for 83W Ku I accidentally hit the mute button and a strange screen popped up (see below).

I know that it is essential to disconnect the power from a receiver before making any diseqc switch changes and have made sure that I follow this rule but I have lost ports on two different diseqc switches that I have had connected to my MicroHD. I think that the culprit is the power...

I can't locate a thread that tells me how to convert a dvr file so I can view on my PC. I recall someone giving the details a while back but I can't locate it. It would be a good "sticky" if someone can help. Thanks

I am considering replacing my Hughesnet service with a Verizon Mi-Fi. As a full time RVer I am experiencing more RV spots with nearby trees that are stopping me from getting a signal with my roof mounted Motosat dish. I would appreciate any serious feed back from any knowledgeable source...

About a year ago, a Motosat installer told me that since a Hughesnet system will stop transmitting as soon as the receive signal is lost, the danger of a person being harmed when in the path of the signal, is minimal. I know that the signal is not directly in front of an offset dish, but about...

I would like to receive FTA using my Hughesnet (Direcway) .74 dish and at the same time use it for Hughesnet. The obvious solution is to use a dual output LNB. Universal LNBs are availabe, but I am having difficulty finding a dual output with a LO of 10750. The only dual that I can find...

For some reason I am unable to post this where it belongs in the classfied section but: I have two Multi-System TVs, a 12" and a 25" that I am trying to get rid of. They are great to have when a receiver suddenly decides to change itself to PAL output. I am looking to trade them for a...

I first posted this in the Dish Network Forum, but it was suggested that I post it here: First a little history. A few years ago I was using a DiSEqC switch to control the various LNBFs connected to my 311 receiver. It was recognized as a"Generic" switch and functioned perfectly. It was...

I am trying to find the LNBF that is used on the DirecPC/Direcway/Hughesnet .74 dish to get 119 when the dish is pointed at 117 for satellite internet service. It is no longer being made but surely someone has an old one that they are not using. Thanks

Just returned from Alaska where I saw a prime focus and offset dish next to each other (see attachment). They are not pointed at the same sat but it is an excellent example to show the difference in "look angles" between the two type of dishes.

I am a full time RVer with Dish Network. I have a Super Dish 121 on my house for locals and German TV. I also have a second Super Dish that I set up on the road. This is quite a cumbersome operation and I am trying to eliminate this dish by using the 110/119 LNBs on the roof of my RV and a...

I’ve recently read that many people who lack spectrum analyzers and other expensive equipment will carry their receiver and a small TV up on the roof to peak a dish. Initially, I devised a procedure to set up a Dish Network Superdish for 121,119, and 110 that I carry with me in my RV and have to...
