I have an old Slim Line dish and I have a FTA receiver. I got as far as putting my own LNB on the dish at 18.5 inches, and the rest is lost knowledge on my part. So I have questions. What satellites can I get on the slim line in Florida? What do I set the dish at to start looking? I have the...

Does anyone have a Neusat Sp6000, that has beenable to set any favorite channels? I tried everything that the book shows, and have not been able to add a favorite channel to any of the lists. Joe

Yesterday I called into Dish support to find out what they are doing about my 625's audio problem. Many other 625 users say that they also noticed the random glitch in audio on their 625 receiver/DVR. This only occurred during playback, the recording is always fine if you backup and play it...

My 625 receiver, which is only a couple of months old, while watching something I recorded, it stops for a split second, then continues. On some occasions, it makes a very weird sound when it skips. I backup and run over the same time again and it does not do it, so I know it is the CPU doing...

I finaly got my Stab HH90 motor to work in a decent way. The problem came when I came accross a problem that PBS helped me with, it was how to reset the Fortec receiver. The reset was needed to combat a problem where certain chanels would cause the receiver to lock and reset itself. I had just...

My old motor took a dump after Wilma. I bought a Stab90 this time, and it is an awesom improvement over that other junky motor I bought. I was following the installation guide for Forec Star and USALS and I am a bit confused about angles. The motor angle I got from the diagram in the book...

I would be interested in knowing what the number 1 target's are for the majority of FTA receivers. Could you list your top few birds, and the channels that bring you there, and what you love about it? I will start with a channel I love, which I get from a local Fox channel on my OTA HDTV...

I shoped around for a Twinhan 102G and found a fair price on ebay. The seller was Guestfrom, yep, that is his ebay user name. I received the card and it did not work. The seller told me that his ebay auction states that he gives no refunds, or exchanges. He offered to send a second card for $50...

Does anyone have any experience in using a harmony learning remote with a Fotec Ultra receiver? I know that the Harmony will control most all A/V equipment, but will it be able to work with the Fortec Ultra? Joe

I suppose that with all the help PBS and others have given on this subject, I should have gotten this job done on Sunday. In any case, I have gotten another bubble type post level and verified that my pole is 100% plumb. Now for the problem. I set my motor on the pole, placed my dish on the...

I bought my dish from sadoun, and for the money I paid, it is probably OK. One thing I don't like about the Fortec dish is the design of the adjustments. I saw a design that had screws to make fine adjustments. So one you get your dish in the ball park, you fine tune it with the screws, then...

I placed an order with FTA-direct for a Pansat 2700a on the 3rd of this month. When I heard nothing from them after a few days, I called them and they told me that they had to verify my address and asked for my banks phone number. I left it at that until this morning when I am still wondering...

I installed my new 36" Fortec dish, my first, in the front corner, near the garage door, long enough to taste it. Once the women of the house saw it, I had to say it was temp, and i would move it as soon as I figure it out. That was after I put two bags of concrete in the hole, and filled the...

Can someone tell me if I should take the short curved pipe off of the dish motor if I am going to mount it to a plumb pipe in the ground? Will the motor be positioned correctly if I mount it directly to the pipe? The pipe is 1 5/8 " and should fit the motor perfectly. As hard as I look at it...

I have a new motor that is supposed to be HH and the literature with it says that it has a travel of 95 degrees. I would think that HH = 180 degree's, am I wrong? JM

Can someone who knows all of this, not part of it, but all of it, explain the differences, and uses of these devices, with examples? Are some of these the same device by another name, are some interchangable, or is one better than the other for the same purpose. Which cost more? Which have a...
